CIEL condemns the unlawful US & Israel strikes on Iran. We express solidarity for all affected across the region These attacks violate int'l law, escalate insecurity, & erode the rule of law. The world must reject force & recommit to multilateralism👉 bit.ly/4seBEDg

Words they don’t use: illegal, war, coup, international law, violation, sovereignty. This is how you normalize imperialism.

But solar geoengineering deployment is NOT inevitable - the time to get behind Non Use is now solargeoeng.org

Recent developments inc US-Israeli start-up Stardust’s plans to commercialise & scale up this technology over the next decade, and UK govt funding outdoor experiments through controversial research agency ARIA are deeply concerning..

As UNEA7 opens in Nairobi @guardian Editorial spotlights African Ministers’ leadership in calling for a Non Use Agreement to put extreme Solar Geoengineering technologies permanently off the table, and refocus on real solutions to the climate crisis: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

It's time to put solar geoengineering off the table for good - the call for a Non-Use Agreement is growing louder and stronger - you can support it here: solargeoeng.org

Stardust and its investors are accelerating a reckless race towards the possibility of perpetual dependency on this extreme and inherently unpredictable technology

News that Israeli-US start up Stardust Solutions has now raised a hefty $75m, plans to start outdoor solar geoengineering experiments as soon as next spring and appears to be working towards potential deployment this decade is major cause for alarm ciel.org/news/us-israel…

Marine geoengineering is a dangerous distraction from real, rights-based climate solutions. CIEL & FOE US urge states to uphold precaution, stop open-ocean experiments, and protect the ocean as a vital climate ally. 🛑 It’s time to hit the brakes.

This brief outlines: - The scale and scope of marine #geoengineering deployment - What’s at stake for coastal communities and ecosystems - How international law restricts deployment and commercialization - What states must do to uphold precaution and halt open-ocean experiments

These highly speculative techniques would turn the ocean into a laboratory and risk undermining the livelihoods of billions of people. Yet experiments are on the rise with some projects already selling carbon credits in violation of international agreements.

🌊 Marine Geoengineering is increasingly entering mainstream climate discourse . A new report from CIEL & @foe_us maps where these dangerous technologies may be deployed. The findings: no ocean basin or coastal state is out of scope. 🔗 Read the briefing: bit.ly/47rmsuS

THREAD: On Friday, Hamas submitted its much-anticipated response to US President Donald Trump’s Gaza proposal. Since Israel managed to introduce substantial revisions into the twenty-one point proposal agreed between Trump and a group of Arab and Muslim leaders on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, changing key wording and removing one clause altogether, the Palestinian movement had been stuck between a very large rock and a very hard place.

CAN condemns the illegal Israeli aggression against the #GlobalSumudFlotilla and its activists. International law is clear. Israel is in violation. We call for the immediate and safe release of those illegally abducted by Israel. Full statement: climatenetwork.org/2025/10/02/can…

Ok. They’ve pissed me off. I’m back to tell you 3 things about ID cards: 1. Migrants ALREADY HAVE biometric ID cards & govts have been trying to digitise them for years w repeated fuckups & failures causing complete chaos - they don’t work, you do not want that system for you.

BREAKING 🌊 The Global Sumud Flotilla has been swarmed by drones in another midnight attack off the coast of Crete. Unidentified drones targeted multiple boats with explosive devices and unspecified substances. Radio channels have been jammed. More info to follow.
