Hell in the Niger Delta

#Shell has spilled the equivalent of an Exxon Valdez tanker every year for 65 years. The land is polluted beyond belief. The fish are dead and the soil is barren. They must be brought to justice.

Climate reparations: "Under no circumstances" — #JohnKerry

@farhanasultana described the White House’s position on climate reparations as “disgraceful.”"

At the 2nd Glasgow Dialogue #SB58 & wondering how the UNFCCC can regain trust & credibility in an effective #LossAndDamage fund when participants highlight the insufficiency, accessibility, flexibility, adequacy, efficiency + failures of #mitigation & #adaptation financing so far

There are news to my campaign to help Ugandan climate justice activists to come to Pre-COP at Bonn on the 9th of June. We have responsibility to give their voices strength and volume so their daily catastrophe is seen, heard and acted upon #DebtForClimate #LossAndDamage #MakeThemPay #ClimateCatastrophe #MAPA @ScientistRebellion @debtforclimate @fff @FridaysForFuture_MAPA https://gofund.me/e403acf8

After the milestone #LossAndDamage finance deal struck at #COP27, work to make it reality is about to begin. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/01032023/cop27-loss-damage-deal-developing-nations/

This is how climate chnage looks like in Malawi after cyclone hits. Thousands of homes have been left homeless and many lives lost as well as more than 10,000 people displaced permanently! Can we find ho to help these communities?

The approval of #LossAndDamage fund at #COP27 still needs concrete creation and application & #DebtCancellation must come with it. These measured need to be protected from the corruption of financial elites for GS communities to benefit from it.

This prevents Global South countries from designing adaptation & mitigation strategies + repairing long-term #LossAndDamage, when the communities directly experiencing climate chaos & oppression from our economic model must lead the ecological transition. https://www.eurodad.org/a_tale_of_two_emergencies_the_interplay_of_sovereign_debt_and_climate_crises_in_the_global_south

Does debt cancellation complement the #LossAndDamage mechanisms discussed at #COP27?

Stop drilling ‼️Start paying‼️#realcriminals #ClimateCrisis #ClimateCatastrophe #LossAndDamage #Debt4Climate

People everywhere are rising up in resistance against the fossil fuel industry. Right now, the extractive fossil fuel industry is driving the climate crisis - causing death, destruction and displacement around the world.

The fossil fuel industry is built on colonialism and injustice. From systemic pollution and environmental damage to displacement of communities, murder, fraud, misleading greenwashing marketing campaigns and now the global energy crisis.

The truth is, fossil fuel companies are responsible for countless crimes against the environment and humanity and they have been getting away with it for far too long.

We must hold fossil fuel companies to account. That’s why I have just signed this petition demanding fossil fuel companies to:

*Stop their climate wrecking activities including their involvement in new fossil fuel projects.
*Admit and apologise for their crimes.
*Repair and pay for the damage they have caused.

Can you help by signing too?

Private aviation is a symbol of climate injustice, accessible by a few elites and 50x more polluting than trains. The rich are burning the planet while the poorest are suffering the consequences. People are resisting, with love and for life. #MakeThemPay #LossAndDamage (2/3)

Activists from SR Africa took action in different countries to demand climate action, specifically 1) to halt new oil & gas projects across the continent, 2) invest in clean energy systems, 3) pay up for losses in ecosystems & culture due to extractivism. ✊ #LossAndDamage (1/13)
