Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative
Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative@fossiltreaty·
🛢️ Fossil fuels are fuelling chaos, threatening our communities, nature, health, and peace. We need a bold global response to end the madness. ⏳ The time for empty promises is over. 🤝 Countries must cooperate and negotiate a binding agreement to halt the expansion of oil, gas, and coal, committing to a just and equitable transition to clean, renewable energy for all. 💚 Join us in calling for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty to protect what we love. 💌 Share this post to spread the message! fossilfueltreaty.org

The children of Gaza just want the war to end so they can go to school, be with their families, and live out their childhoods. This is not possible without a ceasefire. We must continue calling for one loudly, persistently.

Tax Justice Network Bsky: @taxjustice.net
How did the superrich's wealth get so extreme? How does it make our economies insecure? And how can our governments use #WealthTax to tackle the problem? Glad you asked! We just happen to have a Swedishly- inspired infographic to explain it all.

In this new paper we calculate the unequal exchange of labour between the global North and global South. The results are quite staggering. You'll want to look at this... 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4146…

If you have a vote tomorrow, please vote for a party that takes the climate crisis seriously. I can't imagine what it's like to be a child in India's current heatwaves. Trying to study. Trying to sleep. Imagine a newborn in heat. This is coming to all of us @VoteClimateUK
UNICEF@UNICEF

Have you already experienced a heatwave this year? Heatwaves debilitate children’s health and well-being and by 2050, every child on our planet – over 2 billion – will be exposed to high heatwave frequency. We need urgent #ClimateAction.

Well, it’s official: I have been promoted to full Professor @ucl I am well aware of what this means; that as a Black Woman I am one of a few. To the students over the years who told me it meant the world to see me at the front of a room- I am still here.

The catastrophic bombing of Gaza must stop NOW. Every MINUTE without an arms EMBARGO is increasing the risk of weapons being used to commit WAR CRIMES and BREAK international law. It's past due the UK govt woke up and stopped ARMS EXPORTS to Israel, and all other armed groups.

Unbelievable that people are living through this already in 2024. I keep thinking about what it would be like to have a young baby in near-50 degree heat, and be one of the many families who can't afford AC. And it's going to get even worse in years to come. This is an emergency

I don't think people elsewhere fully grasp what's happening in NCR and just how hot it is. At 7am, the tap water is boiling hot. The sun hurts the eye. There's no night time anymore. For 24 hours the temperature feels above 40C. Which means during night the water is as hot
