@YebSano speaks to the responsibility of #CarbonMajors for inflicting human rights violations on the Filipino people

. @YebSano on #CHR inquiry: this is the beginning of the end of fossil fuel stranglehold over our climate and our future. It is a fundamental signal to the Carbon Majors that they must change their business. #ClimateJustice #HumanRights

Hundreds of civil society representatives have been forced into the cold by aggressive security & risk having access removed entirely, while fossil fuel execs remain inside. @UNFCCC & @PEspinosaC must intervene & keep critical voice of the people in #COP25.

Meanwhile in Madrid, hundreds of young & indigenous people demanding *immediate* transformative change @ #COP25 No time left for more growth & rising inequality. No time left for more fossil gas. No time left for more industrial agriculture. #EUGreenDeal

'100 companies are responsible for 71% of global emissions' @rickheede #CarbonMajors #CorporateAccountability

Thank you to the youth movement and to @GretaThunberg for speaking about the reality of the #ClimateEmergency. This is not what we see at the negotiating tables. We need #climatejustice now and we need it to include the voices of indigenous peoples and the Global South.

'Pledges for carbon zero are not leading, they are misleading. These pledges do not include emissions from aviation or shipping...they let countries offset their emissions to meet these pledges' #Greta

#Greta at #COP25: 'This COP seems to be an opportunity for countries to negotiate loopholes' this could not be more true for Article 6 news.globallandscapesforum.org/42134/would-a-…

“Zero [carbon] by 2050 means nothing if high emissions continue even for a few years. Then the remaining carbon budget will be gone.” @GretaThunberg slams rich nations for using #COP25 to push for loopholes to avoid the systemic change we need.

“For the first time ever, big polluting companies have been found responsible for human rights harms resulting from the climate crisis." #ClimateJustice
