15 November Global Day of Action for Climate Justice thisworldisours.org/peoplessummi...

Did you know you pay more fuel tax on a single car journey than a billionaire does on a private jet flight? Right now the gov is subsidising tax breaks, when they could be using that tax to generate billions for public services. Help us change this: https://bit.ly/43NAeFN

Protest outside Israeli embassy W8 4QB, 6pm tomorrow 7 November. Stop starving #Gaza Stop the #genocide

Brazilian President Lula gave a strong justice-oriented speech today ahead of #COP30, but we need more than words - especially considering his government is also selling oil licenses in the Amazon. Help us tell Brazil to step into its power as a climate leader? act.350.org/letter/cop30...

I am 1 chapter in to @lukekemp.bsky.social 's Goliath's Curse, and it's already one of the best books, and most timely, that I have ever read. Do yourself a favour and pick it up ASAP.

Finally - the extraordinary animated film "No One is an Island," based on our "Living Well Within Limits" project can be seen! labour of love and care by animator David Bunting & futurist-artist James McKay . You can see it (and vote for it!!!) here. 😍 myhero.com/2025-peoples...

Fast food’s climate divide: 🌱 #BurgerKing & #Subway are expanding plant-based menus. 🍔 #McDonalds? We can’t say the same. Also, no methane target and no disclosure. Without methane data or meat reduction goals, the world’s most famous burger hides a giant climate problem.

Triple-whammy of hottest ever years risks ‘irreversible damage’, says UN - Experts say 2023, 2024 and 2025 will be the three hottest years in 176 years of records, with 1.5C Paris agreement target now ‘virtually impossible’ #climatecrisis Story by me www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Q: Why can’t the UK do more rail electrification? A: because it is too expensive Q: why is rail electrification so expensive in the UK? A: because we do so little of it 🤪 Welcome to the treasury logic that prevents sensible rail electrification investment, with your guide @noeldolphin.bsky.social

🌏 NEW: The UK government is failing to tackle global heating – so we’re forcing it to take action with Global Legal Action Network. Help fund the fight 👇 https://goodlaw.social/h5ik

Good afternoon to almost everyone

People power CAN win. Zohran Mamdani didn’t win because he had the most money or the biggest platform. He won because communities organised. The future being built will be diverse, inclusive and unstoppable – powered by people who refuse to give up! Hope wins. Justice wins. People power wins.✊💚🌏

100,000 people have already said it: no more fossil gas. They’re calling on EU leaders to ban new fossil fuel projects and phase out gas by 2035. Fossil gas = dependence on autocrats, high energy bills, climate chaos. Become part of the movement! 👉 bit.ly/47F7Zue #StopFossilGas

"Fossil fuel companies, in order to maintain their garish profits—& Big Oil executives, in order to buy their 4th homes & private jets &, increasingly, luxury bunkers—knowingly stole humanity’s best chance to address climate change on a timeline that would have averted apocalypse."

This is where we are headed. Do you want to know why? UNEP Emissions Gap Report 2025: “To date, no NDCs have set targets to reduce oil and gas production or phase out inefficient fossil fuel subsidies.” Physics be damned. We are on a highway to hell. #ClimateCrisis

I’m afraid I’ve heard enough to take this seriously - No.10 is thinking of abolishing ECO, the main source of funding for upgrading fuel poor homes. There’s no way to sugar coat this: it would be a disaster. And it would mean this government spending less on upgrading homes than the last one

In a new piece for @uk.theconversation.com, @mikesavagelse.bsky.social argues that we need to restore the vital principle that private wealth entails social responsibilities. 🎟️ Hear more in our online event on 18 November: buff.ly/fXy9xsz Read the article ⬇️ buff.ly/QG56QyD

"I’m looking forward to being the mayor that doesn’t require people to go on a 15-day hunger strike to wipe off nearly half a billion dollars in debt relief. But I know that there will be protests while I’m the mayor. My job is to ensure that those First Amendment rights are protected."

Since 2000, the richest 1% of the world's population has taken 41% of all new wealth. The poorest half of the world has received only 1%.

As the PM heads to the Amazon for COP30, remember that Britain is also a rainforest nation. UK Ministers must support Brazil's plans to save the world's tropical rainforests. They must also set a goal to restore Britain's own lost temperate rainforests: lostrainforestsofbritain.org/2025/11/05/a...

How is Brazil’s recent deadly police raid related to Israel’s genocide in Gaza? Solidarity movements from Brazil’s favelas have long linked Israel’s militarism to Brazil’s own state violence. www.tni.org/en/article/f...

Utterly scandalous that climate activists are prevented from mentioning climate change in their defence Even worse when one group is and another isn't, yet they're accused of the same offence Our legal system is being turned into a joke

In a new report released today by @insidetrackuk.bsky.social, UK food industry insiders expose how companies’ and supermarkets’ commercial strategies on #MeatAndDairy are at odds with their public commitments on health, sustainability and animal welfare. www.thegrocer.co.uk/news/insider...

Catastrophic nature loss is at least as serious a problem as climate breakdown, but only gets a fraction of the (woefully inadequate) attention. THE most critical tasks of our time are: • Protect what remains of wild ecosystems • Mass rewilding where damaged or lost www.earth.com/news/africas...

Big Meat is following Big Oil’s playbook—funding science, shaping narratives, and deflecting blame. Chapter 4 of “Climate Obstruction” reveals how PR + media framing obscure corporate responsibility for emissions. Read: cssn.org/news-researc...

"Food systems are a critical driver of planetary boundary transgressions, dominating at least 4 transgressed boundaries (biosphere integrity, land system change, freshwater change & biogeochemical flows), while strongly contributing to the transgression of 2 more - climate change & novel entities".

From the report: "A 25% reduction is needed for 2030 emissions to be aligned with 2°C pathways" A "35% reduction [in emissions by 2035] is needed to align with 2°C" Which will it be: 2030 target: ~5.5% reduction EVERY year starting 2026 2035 target: ~4.22% reduction EVERY year starting 2026

Inger Andersen, Executive Director of UNEP: “While national climate plans have delivered some progress, it is nowhere near fast enough, which is why we still need unprecedented emissions cuts in an increasingly tight window, with an increasingly challenging geopolitical backdrop."

We are in the throws of a battle over who is going to survive the future. A future marked by scarcity and disaster. A future these people are accelerating. That is what is driving the attacks on civil rights and basic equality. Supremacist beliefs are the tool needed to justify human culling.

Carla Denyer has started a petition to Racel Reeves "End tax breaks for oil and gas giants and support workers instead" The more we support it the better chance it has of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition here: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Public understanding doesn't get to be this wrong just by accident ! Here's looking at you Tufton Street -Fleet street nexus 🤨

While early warning systems can and do protect lives and are absolutely essential going forward, they cannot however protect infrastructure. How does a community recover from this? Will it ever? The background global heating for this event is ~1.5°C. Atmospheric CO2 is at 425 ppm. #ClimateCrisis

"The future is still being written. Through choices in policy, investment, education, and care for one another and the Earth, we can still create a turning point. It begins by embracing our shared humanity and recognizing the profound interconnectedness of all life on the planet"

"Farmers are on the frontline of climate breakdown" "61% say their work negatively affects their mental health" To help with both: more farmers need support to transition away from livestock farming & into nature restoration, or into the production of fruit & vegs that are still largely imported.

"The world's most comprehensive public database on oil and gas companies shows an industry pouring money into new fossil infrastructure, much as it did before the Dubai agreement, widening the gap between climate pledges and reality. Short-term expansion is up 33% since 2021."

92%: the percentage of funding for Nigel Farage's far-right political party Reform UK that comes from fossil fuel interests. Across the world, anyone blaming immigrants, etc, it's all just a smokescreen to allow the rich to keep on getting richer by killing our planet. share.google/W2gwfc0XVpUy...

A great thread I had previously missed 👇

I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥 There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️ They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬 Thread:🧵Plz RT

Great piece by Gordon Brown I wish all politicians were this well informed Nonetheless, whatever action we take now will simply limit how catastrophic climate breakdown ends up being - which makes the fight to slash emissions even more vital www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Hooray!
