When states act in the public interest, the rich and powerful can sue them in VIP courts to protect their profits. 😱 That system is called the Investor-State Dispute Settlement - and it must be dismantled.🚨 Together with 5 partners, we've published 10 recent cases of ISDS: 10isdsstories.org

EU-Staaten können von ausländischen Investoren auf Milliarden verklagt werden – wenn sie ihre nationale Sicherheit schützen, Kriegsprofiteure sanktionieren oder Maßnahmen gegen die Klimakrise ergreifen. In 10 neuen Fallstudien zeigen wir die verheerenden Folgen dieser #ISDS Klagen: 10isdsstories.org

🚗💨As cars cruise on roads, they’re not just burning fuel, but driving massive demand for steel. Most of that steel is made with coal. The cost? Communities choking on pollution, facing higher risk diseases—even dying. With the IAA car show ongoing, the carmakers must start demanding #GreenSteel.

💶 Worried about high carbon prices? Don’t fix it by allowing more emissions As part of the EU’s effort to meet its 2030 climate target, a new carbon pricing system will put a price on fossil fuels used in buildings and road transport. The revenues can be reinvested in socially just climate action.

Chiara Martinelli reacts to the State of the European Union 2025: 'The Union is burning, flooding and drying up - yet the EU is still arguing about emissions ‘flexibility’. Read the text in full: caneurope.org/reaction-to-... #SOTEU

Today, Razom We Stand + 60 orgs sent an open letter to #EU leaders: close the deadly loophole in sanctions and ban Russian #LNG in the 19th package. The Kremlin earned €931B from fossil fuels since 2022. Europe must act with strength and end Russian LNG now. razomwestand.com/open-letter-...

🔴 We’re marking our #RedLineforGaza. Even bigger, even louder. 🔴 In June, we took to the streets of Brussels with over 110,000 people to condemn Israel’s human rights violations in Gaza. But it wasn’t enough. Now we come even louder to say: it’s time not only to demand, but also to act!

Today, we stood with @apiboficial.bsky.social leaders and other green NGOs in front of the @europarl.europa.eu. Why? To bring the Amazon to the❤️of Europe. Together, we say NO to the toxic EU-Mercosur trade deal🚫 & stand for a robust EUDR. 🌳🌴 📸Philip Reynaers

LIVE from #RespectTheAmazon at @europarl.europa.eu The Amazon, home to 10% of Earth’s species & a vital carbon sink, is being destroyed by big agri & a complicit EU. Indigenous leaders are in Brussels demanding action. We stand with them: defend a strong anti-deforestation law & #StopEUMercosur

❌❌ THIS. IS. OUTRAGEOUS.❌❌ The Commission is splitting the #EUMercosur deal, shutting the Member States off from the ratification process. The European national parliaments have no say on the ratification of the deal anymore. #StopEUMercosur

CAN Europe is attending the Conference on Climate Democracy in Copenhagen this week, organised by Global Focus and CAN Europe. Our colleagues Kristina and Romain are joining the discussions on the link between democracy, civil society, and climate action. 🌍✊ 1/3 🧵👇

Very good meeting today with @caneurope.org, @wwf.eu, @carbonmarketwatch.bsky.social, and @transenv.bsky.social. We discussed the state of play ahead of #COP30, the 2040 climate target process, the EU’s Nationally Determined Contribution, as well as taxation initiatives.

Europe is burning: wildfires are forcing families from their homes in Greece, Spain, and Portugal. And yet, extremist politicians are trying to kill the EU’s plan to slash emissions by 90% by 2040. Let’s send our leaders a clear message: No rollback on climate action! 👉 go.wemove.eu/cutemissions

The nexus between trade and industry is a hot topic for the coming months. We responded to the EU Commission's call for evidence on #CBAM with a 5-point submission, demanding that it will not be turned into a pure protectionist and trade defence measure.

Climate change is a ticking 💣 with a hefty price tag. Italy is already feeling the impacts, from floods and heatwaves to rising energy poverty. But there’s a way out! Renewables, energy efficiency, and adaptation measures are key to protecting people and our shared Planet. 🌍 👇

Last week, we got more details about the US-EU trade deal... and it does not look good. CSDDD, CSDR, CBAM, EUDR, gas, nuclear, cars, meat &more - all in there, not in a positive way. This is just another example of the EU’s willingness to give up on the climate and energy transition commitments.

❗️No place is safe from extreme weather. Even unique, biodiversity-rich regions like the transboundary Prespa Lakes basin face serious threats — especially to agriculture and livestock. 🌱 We must act now to protect these ecosystems and the communities that depend on them. 👇

⌛️ We don't have much time left to block the ratification of the toxic EU-Mercosur trade deal. 📣 Let's build pressure in all EU countries to tell our policy-makers #StopEUMercosur Join a stunt or organise your own action locally with help from our mobilisation kit 👉 stopeumercosur.org/take-action/
