Today we’re at the #MakeThemPay demonstration in London to demand that those responsible for climate breakdown and rising inequality pay up. While polluting corporations and billionaires are allowed to destroy our planet, ordinary people are made to live with the consequences.

We're on the streets today to tell the Government #MakePollutersPay! Oil and gas giants have made billions for the super-rich - driving up our bills and wrecking our climate. It’s time they paid to fix it! 🌍🔥💰 Our movement is growing fast and we're not going away! @makethempay.bsky.social

Join the Climate Bloc on the 20th of September and #MakePollutersPay

With its massive profits, the oil and gas industry has a chance to lead the energy transition. Instead, it is driving its business into a dead end and leaving everyday people to pay the price of climate catastrophe. #ClimateAction www.un.org/en/climatech...

Trump is trying to ban states from holding oil and gas companies accountable for climate costs, and make working people clean up polluters' mess. @makepolluterspay.bsky.social's new poll finds it's wildly unpopular. 71% of voters, including 55% of Republicans want polluters to pay their fair share.

🚨BREAKING🚨 The trial verdict is in. A jury in the Morton County courthouse found Greenpeace International and two Greenpeace entities in the United States liable for over US$ 660 million combined in Energy Transfer’s meritless SLAPP lawsuit. #WeWillNotBeSilenced

The decision regarding Energy Transfer v Greenpeace about the activism against the Dakota Access Pipeline is out. Not only will the decision likely bankrupt Greenpeace US, but it will set a precedent that could limit free speech by climate groups & other NGOs. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

Greenpeace must pay hundreds of millions over Dakota pipeline protests, says jury

No one should be left behind in the shift to a greener future. As the world transitions to renewable energy, we risk simply swapping one unjust system for another.

🔥 BREAKING: The Government plans to axe the windfall tax on oil & gas super-profits by 2030—while energy bills rise & climate disasters worsen. It's consulting on an alternative. It's time polluters paid more, not less! Sign the petition now: shorturl.at/sthMx

🏘️ Britain’s poorest are spending almost as much on council tax as income tax — @resfoundation.bsky.social   “It’s an incredibly regressive tax ... a band H property in Hartlepool is paying almost twice as much as a band H property in Westminster”   Eleanor Shearer on BBC #PoliticsLive ⬇️

Thames Water have been allowed to add another £3 billion to their existing £19 billion of debt. They've run up this bill by paying out huge amounts to bosses and shareholders instead of investing in our water infrastructure. It's time for water to be run for people, not profit.

Another corporate bailout at the expense of ordinary taxpayers. This £3bn loan will ultimately be met through higher bills — but it won't fix the underlying problem: Reckless mismanagement which has, again, put shareholders above the public.

🚨Breaking🚨 ⚖️The High Court has approved #Thames Water’s £3bn bailout loan. This is just a stay of execution. Thames will limp on for a few months like a profit-thirsty zombie. The privatised business model is rotten and must be condemned. Public ownership NOW!

The oil and gas industry is trying to dodge responsibility for the massive destruction new fields like Rosebank would cause. This is absolutely scandalous

📢 NEW: BP and Shell’s profits in 2024 are more than 2x the amount of UK’s climate finance commitments. Shell and BP’s combined 2024 profits are over £26 bn. In contrast, the UK has committed to spending £11.6 bn on international climate finance. www.globaljustice.org.uk/news/bp-and-...

40,000 people say MAKE POLLUTERS PAY 📢 Big Oil companies rake in profits while our planet burns. Shell raked in profits of £19.1 BILLION in 2024 alone. Thanks to @greenpeaceuk.bsky.social @makepolluterspay.bsky.social @britishquakers.bsky.social for coming out to support our petition hand in ✍️🏽

The biggest & wealthiest climate polluters are being allowed to get even richer while millions of people are pushed deeper into poverty by the climate crisis. We joined @globaljusticenow.bsky.social & @makepolluterspay.bsky.social to tell the Government to #MakePollutersPay ✍️

Polluting corporations made billions again last year. Rising bills in the UK and climate breakdown globally, while polluters rake it in? We don’t think so. We joined @GlobalJusticeUK at No.10 to tell the government to #MakePollutersPay

BREAKING 🚨: WE WON OUR CASE AGAINST ROSEBANK. The court has ruled the oil field UNLAWFUL and Rosebank’s approval has been overturned. This is a monumental victory in the fight for a liveable future for all.

HUGE NEWS!!!!

This is some bombshell, scandelous, spy-novel-esque news in the climate space: It’s alledged that a lobbying firm representing ExxonMobil engaged in hacking and targeting 128 climate activists and/or environmental organizations involved in climate ligation to discredit those individuals/groups.

Yes, climate change was a major factor behind the hot, dry weather that gave rise to the devastating LA fires. Extreme weather disasters are driven by fossil-fuel-induced climate chaos. It’s time to make the companies that spent decades burying climate science pay for the damage they’ve caused.

Last year, Shell made £23.7billion in profit! It was also the hottest year on record for the planet. Fossil fuels are the biggest contributor to the climate crisis that causes communities to push through devastating extreme weather everywhere. Their profit is our loss. #StopDrillingStartPaying

It's one big club and you're not in it.⁠ It's time to tax the billionaires to save our planet.

Wow. 🔥🔥🔥 This new bombshell Oxfam report is exactly what billionaires don’t want us to know: Apparently 60% of global billionaire wealth comes not from entrepreneurship… …but from inheritance, corruption, cronyism & monopolies. Share the truth:

🚨 NEW ANALYSIS: Privately held company ownership of North Sea oil & gas in 2024 is now *8x higher* than it was in 2005. Increasingly, control of North Sea assets lies with a small group of owners with concentrated interests. Why does this matter? 🧵 www.common-wealth.org/publications...

This is it: we are on the brink of stopping new oil and gas drilling for good. The government has paused approving new fields while it asks the public, what we think should happen. The gov stands on the side of people over oil and gas bosses. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/ha...

🚨This group is leading on a global plan to manage an equitable phase-out of fossil fuels and a fair energy transition away from fossil fuels.

🌍 BREAKING NEWS: The Bahamas 🇧🇸 joined bloc of countries seeking to negotiate a #FossilFuelTreaty, and Pakistan 🇵🇰 committed to discuss an equitable and just transition with the growing group of now 16 nations across 4 continents.
