Climate Defenders

Yesterday, GOP Senators arrested 8 of their own constituents rather than face questions about their "big beautiful bill." Senators must vote NO on any bill that cuts medicaid, food stamps, or clean energy tax credits to fund tax breaks for billionaires and Big Oil.

BREAKING: Over 50,000 New Yorkers shut down Madison Ave to demand “Hands Off Migrants, Hands Off the Planet”, in the lead up to Earth Day. Free Mahmoud, Free Kilmar, Free Mohsen, Free Rumeysa, free them all! #HandsOffMigrants #HandsoffthePlanet

BIG NEWS: A jury has reached a verdict that Greenpeace entities are liable for over $660 million in damages in our trial against Big Oil company Energy Transfer. This is far from over. We’re going to appeal. And we’re prepared to fight this all the way to victory.

.@BradLander is pushing thru yet another multi-million $$$ city contact for BlackRock, the world’s dirtiest money manager. We’ll testify against it at a pro-forms “public hearing” at 10am. He should stand up to Trump and move the city from dirtier to cleaner managers. Not this!

In the next four years, Climate Defenders will focus on organizing and building power among the most vulnerable communities: Black, Brown and migrant communities that will face the brunt of this administration and the climate crisis.

Our People and Our Planet had a major set back today. Trump’s victory also means a victory for Big Oil and its backers. Here's our plan to fight back ⬇️🧵

Santa Marta in Colombia last night....👀

This is our world at 1.45 degrees warming. The new UN report shows we're firmly on track for 3.6 THREE. POINT. SIX. This is why we take direct action. There's no other choice.

Shoutout to all the activists who fought for this! Together, we’re protecting the planet and our future. 💪🌍 #Divestment #ClimateJustice #NYC #EndFossilFuels

NYC pension funds manage about $275 billion, and this new policy ends support for fossil fuel infrastructure, which often devastates low-income communities and communities of color.

BREAKING: HUGE WIN in NYC. @NYCComptroller @BradLander will introduce the USA's first divestment policy, stopping new pension fund investments in private equity that finances oil, gas pipelines, and LNG terminals. A win for both our planet and pensions! 🌎💪
