We need to safeguard effective and fair climate policy, like carbon pricing, against bad faith attacks. #cdnpoli dsfdn.org/DontBeFooled

Repeat after me: individual actions will not solve the climate crisis 🙅♀️
Narratives such as "technology will save us" and "it's up to individuals to change their habits" are just as insidious as outright climate denial.
We must keep our attention on where power lies... (1/2)

Shame on us.

🚨A warning from @GuajajaraSonia: We're running out of time to protect life on Earth. Yet rich countries, like those in the EU, Norway and Australia are turning #COP15 another COP of broken promises by refusing to support "indigenous territories" in the global biodiversity deal
ALERTA! Estamos ficando sem tempo para proteger a vida na Terra. No entanto, países ricos como #UE #Noruega e #Austrália estão fazendo da #COP15 outra promessa quebrada, ao se recusarem descaradamente a apoiar "territórios indígenas" no acordo global de biodiversidade. Vergonha!

All eyes on @EACJCourt Judges may halt #EACOP tomorrow - the pipeline violates local & international law, threatens livelihoods & endangered species. It locks Africa into dirty energy instead of unleashing $ for clean energy.
Justices: Listen to the Affected people. #StopEACOP

Canada’s fossil fuel companies have more than tripled their profits while Canadians struggle to pay the bills.
That’s why we are proud to announce the Windfall Profits Tax to fund the bold climate solutions Canada keeps talking about. Watch our #TaxBigOil video for details:

@JonathanWNV - why are you subsidizing high-cost nuclear power when we have lower cost and faster options to reduce GHGs?

"..nascent variants (BQ.1, BQ.1.1, BQ.2.75.2, XBB,,) that are rapidly spreading abroad have an evil twist that omicron lacked: an ability to evade the drugs that humans have developed to fight the SARS-CoV-2 virus...the pandemic appears far from over."

If we delay emission cuts we “will miss a brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all.”
Every sentence describing the new #IPCC report is completely life changing. Literally everything is at stake.

JUST IN! 24 hours ahead of #IUCNCongress, our hard-hitting ad in the @FT calls on President @EmmanuelMacron to support the goal to conserve at least half the planet.
Will he listen to the science, Indigenous people and marginalized communities and vote for #Motion101ForHalf?

It’s not rocket science. Vaccinate essential workers. Go to where they work. Offer it to them. Give them a paid sick day off after. We have vaccination clinics where they can’t fill the appointments. The stupidity of this vaccine roll out is astounding.
