Very exciting, another landmark climate case out of the Netherlands. Shell ordered to reduce emissions by 45% by 2030 (one 2019 levels). Amazing precedent set here!

Concreet een bevel van de rechter om uitstoot van Shell, inclusief toeleveranciers en afnemers, met 45% voor 2030 te reduceren tov 2019. Super! Gefeliciteerd Roger! Gefeliciteerd Milieudefensie en alle mede eisers! Fossiele industrie kan de borst natmaken!

The world’s biggest banks have pumped a staggering $3.8 trillion into fossil fuel industries over five years.
“This report serves as a reality check for banks that think that vague ‘net-zero’ goals are enough to stop the #ClimateCrisis”.

👏 It's a historic day today: Nuclear weapons are now illegal under international law! 👏
After 75 years, a new treaty comes into force after 51 countries ratified the #nuclearban.
It's a huge step towards a more peaceful world.

"More snowfall during winter storms is an expected outcome of climate change. That’s because a warmer planet is evaporating more water into the atmosphere."
This should of course be basic, common knowledge by now, but apparently it isn't...

Bravo! Greenpeace activists are peacefully and safely protesting outside Luxembourg's Fonds de Compensation this morning against the state pension fund’s #fossilfuels investments and #greenwashing.
We want pensions that *protect* people and planet, not dirty risky assets.
