Women's Climate Strike

This is absolute madness. Carbon capture and storage has failed time and again. Labour has slashed reliable green programmes, to pour vast sums of our money into a complete crock. The only possible explanation is lobbying by fossil fuel companies.🧵 theguardian.com/environment/20…

If you think that most flights are taken by business people, you might be surprised to see that the leisure market is much bigger, and is growing. Business flights have been flatlining for years – even before Covid. Choosing not to fly on holiday can have a huge impact!

From October until April, grouse shooting estates will set fire to northern England's fragile peat moorlands. This practice poses a threat to nature, the climate and local communities. We're calling on Minister for Nature @MaryCreagh_ to deliver a complete ban.

On Saturday, thousands of people and a large number of solidarity movements and organisations filled the streets of Stockholm to stand against oppression and for justice. Movements for climate justice, Palestine, Congo, Afghanistan, Kurdistan, Sápmi, feminism, antiracism, Ukraine, East Turkistan, Sudan, class struggles, queer rights and many more. We stand united across our struggles to fight together for a common goal; a world that puts people and planet before profit. One group’s fight is everyone’s fight, because no one is free until everyone is free. As climate justice activists we also fight for justice and liberation for all oppressed and colonised peoples. This is only the beginning, we will not back down or be silenced. #PeopleNotProfit #FreePalestine #JusticeForCongo #BijiKurdistan #KeepEyesOnSudan #JusticeForAfghanistan #ClimateJusticeNow #StandWithSápmi

This deeply dishonest outfit has a stand at the @UKLabour conference. #Bluehydrogen will not 'deliver net zero'. Its full life-cycle impact is worse than coal for warming. But the previous Gov rigged the assessment criteria to make it look 'low carbon'. x.com/sioldridge/sta…

BIG: California sues ExxonMobil for "deceiving the public [for decades] that plastic recycling could solve the plastic waste crisis when they clearly knew this wasn’t possible". With plastics as with climate change, #ExxonKnew. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/s…

Depressing reflection of media priorities that focus is all on frocks & football tickets, rather than on real obscenity - that Labour is accused of receiving £4m, its largest-ever donation, from a tax haven-based hedge fund with shares in oil and arms #bbclaurak @openDemocracy

📣 🚨 #StopEACOP It is time for world leaders to champion #RenewableEnergy that protects our shared environment. The communities affected by EACOP are demanding justice, not empty promises. We stand with them ✊💚

BREAKING 🚨: The UK government has decided not to defend the case against Rosebank. This is a massive win and a huge step towards stopping Rosebank for good.

BREAKING: The UK gov't has rightly recognised that approving the Rosebank oil field without taking into account the full extent of its climate impacts was unlawful. It has conceded that argument in our & Greenpeace's legal challenge against the field. So what does that mean? 🧵

@KateRaworth @greenbelt It was incredible, thank you!!

A snippet of Economic Circus from @Greenbelt Festival. We explored logistic vs exponential growth, green growth vs degrowth, and how to end the economy's structural dependencies on endless growth. There's a lot you can do with noodles and a great crowd #GB24 #doughnuteconomics
