1/ It’s time to face down the bullies of the world! Billionaire bullies, corporate polluters, and corrupt autocrats are attempting to silence dissent and to roll back decades of hard-won environmental and civic protections. But power belongs to the people and we are joining together to resist 🧵

Lesson 1 from Santa Marta? Hope is Contagious. And nine other takeaways from a week of landmark climate talks. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Santa Marta is a milestone, but let’s be clear: a phaseout only counts if it delivers justice. That means ending fossil fuels and backing a just transition for frontline communities. No more delay. No more half measures. Read 👉 https://bit.ly/4t36Mp5 #ClimateJustice

That’s a wrap on Santa Marta 🇨🇴 What a moment. Our beach action, mock “oil CEOs” celebrating crisis profits, went global 🌍 Picked up by The Washington Post, The Guardian, AP. And it captured something bigger. 👇 @makethempay.bsky.social @350.org

War is making a killing for companies like TotalEnergies 🤑 💰 USD 5.8 BILLION in profits since the start of the year 💰 This is nearly USD 2 BILLION more than over the same period in 2025 💰 USD 1 BILLION of this reportedly from buying up Middle Eastern oil during attacks on Iran SHAME

Today marked a historic breakthrough in climate diplomacy.

📝 Governments at the Santa Marta Conference: this deserves your attention. As discussions on fossil fuel phaseout are underway, the Caribbean is threatened by a new wave of offshore oil and gas. 🔗 Our brief outlines how States can address the risks: bit.ly/4e9idrR

🇨🇴 April 27, Santa Marta: Global March to End Fossil Fuels / Marcha Global Para el Fin de los Combustible Fósiles. Yesterday, against the backdrop of the Santa Marta Conference, people marched together and reiterated their demands for a just future.

Release: Global energy crisis front and center at Santa Marta conference to end fossil fuels "We come together in Santa Marta at an historic turning point – a moment of great disruption but also opportunity to free ourselves from the fossil fuel stranglehold..." www.greenpeace.org/internationa...

🤝 A high-ambition coalition of Global South nations call for Santa Marta Conference to recognize need for a new legal instrument for a fair phase out of fossil fuels.

The Just Transition Mechanism agreed at #COP30 was a long way coming; a product of relentless push by civil society, workers and frontline communities, tough political choices, and compromises. But what did it take to secure the historic deal? READ: http://bit.ly/4pJjsQXhttps://bit.ly/4sSFLof

History is made by those who show up, and that is exactly what's happening in Santa Marta. There are 60 countries here, academics from all over the world, Indigenous people, civil society, all here to do one thing: figure out how to phase out fossil fuels. www.forbes.com/sites/we-don...

A shadowy legal mechanism called ISDS is holding back the energy transition & punishing countries for climate action. Today, we joined 300+ groups to call for the Santa Marta Conference to begin building a coalition of countries committed to freeing themselves from ISDS. ✊ shorturl.at/E8zVT

Asian civil society and climate justice advocates demand a just transition! ⚡✊🏽 As the energy crisis deepens, triggered by intensifying conflict in the Middle East, nations across Asia are forced to grapple with record-breaking fuel prices and severe supply disruptions. 🛢️

🚨 Only 2.8% of #ClimateFinance supports a #JustTransition; that’s $630M out of $22.7B. It is not good enough. Our new report sets out how finance can actually protect jobs, livelihoods and communities for a just transition. 🔗 Read more 👉 www.actionaidusa.org/publications...

💡Taxing extraordinary profits by fossil companies is building momentum! ⚡Money generated can be used to shield households from spiking energy bills & support them in energy transition. ✅It is short-term measure - but it does not have to stop there! We urgently need permanent tax on fossil profits!

Trump called climate change a “con job” at #UNGA. Our Founding Director @harjeet11.bsky.social responds: this is a reckless assault on our shared future, emboldening fossil fuels and rolling back hard-won progress. We must hold the US accountable and push for ambition at #COP30. ⏳🌍 #ClimateJustice

Trump’s Scotland visit wasn’t just about golf. His call to "Get rid of the windmills and bring back the oil" is an attempt to meddle in our energy transition. We have abundant wind resources which can provide us with energy security, lower bills, and good jobs. @jeremyvine.bsky.social

Early monsoon raised hopes, but floods devastated farmers like Ram Kishan in Etawah. With only INR 250 relief per acre against INR 1,500 sowing costs, the aid falls short. Urge better disaster relief! #NDMA #UPSDMA #climatechange #climatejustice #floodrelief #Etawah Read more in the comments below
