Those most sheltered from the climate crisis – the super-rich and oil and gas giants – keep profiting while the rest of us pay the price The social cost of climate pollution: ExxonMobil: $1.38 trillion Chevron: $1.16 trillion Shell: $1.03 trillion BP: $960 billion TotalEnergies: $830 billion

The EU's food and farming system is a major contributor to the climate crisis and nature destruction – and small farms are often on the receiving end climate disasters The EU's farm policy must break this cycle by funding real change to sustainable farming, instead of bankrolling the super rich

Transparency International France raising the alarm about the rich and powerful targeting the NGOs who hold them to account: ⚖️ wasting their time and resources with spurious lawsuits, only designed to intimidate ✂️ cutting their funding for speaking out for the public interest, or to protect nature

16,500 climate deaths is European cities – is comparable to the number of road traffic deaths across the entire EU for the whole of 2024 (around 19,800) "The actual death toll could be even higher." And this is only going to get worse if the EU and governments don't cut climate pollution

Climate breakdown led to around 16,500 deaths in cities across Europe this summer These deaths are on the hands of the companies profiting most from fueling the climate crisis The EU and governments must turn this around, and one step is a serious #EU2040 climate target that respects the science

The UN's inquiry commission has said that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza The EU and national governments must do everything they can to stop this slaughter Stop sending weapons to Israel, stop the killing, ensure that aid gets to the people who need it #StopTheGenocide

Resentment-driven assaults on civil society are not just the domain of extremist trolls in the US. They are happening in Brussels too, led by the so-called ‘sensible centrists’ of the EPP. Different words, same tactics. Piece from February, but nothing changed. euobserver.com/green-econom...

In case you missed it: @greenpeace.org's landmark lawsuit in the Netherlands against the intimidation by US pipeline company Energy Transfer is going ahead This case will be the first major test of the EU's new law to protect journalists and activists from spurious attacks in court

Succinct thread on how new nuclear is a waste of money, a waste of precious time, and still without a solid plan to deal with, well, the waste

The climate crisis is here, and it's costing people their lives, health, livelihoods and homes €43bn is “conservative” as it doesn't count the record-breaking wildfires that torched southern Europe last month or the compounding impact of simultaneous extreme weather events

“Anyone who pays even a single penny to the Russian companies building Paks 2 from now on is clearly committing a violation of the law and will face criminal consequences” Hungary must now pivot to more renewables and insulate people's homes, to cut pollution and household bills

Hungary & Slovakia (the whole EU too) should *definitely* stop buying Russian fossil fuels & nuclear fuel But just replacing these with fuels from the US is a disaster Instead, investments in more renewables and energy savings will cut pollution and people's bills, all while defunding Putin's war

Greenpeace Bulgaria & Za Zemiata complained to @ec.europa.eu over repeated failures by Bulgarian authorities to enforce EU law at 4 toxic coal plants "Thousands of Bulgarians living under these chimneys continue to face rampant pollution with no accountability" 📰: greenpeace.at/cee-press-hu...

The European Commission's approval of state subsidies for the Paks II nuclear plant undermines the effectiveness of EU sanctions by allowing Russia to profit from Hungarian taxpayers’ money while waging war against Ukraine Great news that EU courts have now struck this down

A "spectacular regulatory failure" by the European Commission that allowed Hungary to award taxpayers' money to the Russian state nuclear corporation to build nuclear reactors, in breach of public procurement rules The European Court of Justice says the Commission was wrong give the green light

🤿🪧⚓️ Polish Greenpeace activists just dove to the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea. These pipes are not delivering fossil gas at the moment, but Europe is still buying gas from Putin's regime. 🚩 Europe's gas demand is funding Putin's war against Ukraine. 🛑 This has to stop! #StopFossilGas

The Global Sumud Flotilla is a courageous act of solidarity with Palestinians who are struggling to survive under the Israeli government’s cruel and unlawful aid blockade, ongoing genocide and man-made famine in Gaza The flotilla must be protected #stopthegenocide

There are good reasons for seeing geoengineering - large scale interventions in the planetary environment to restrict climate change - as a dodgy idea We can add, for Arctic interventions, they don't work They're not a get-out-of-jail-free card for fossil industries www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The longer the EU leaves it to commit to real and meaningful cuts to climate pollution, the harder it becomes Every delay and deferral means more frequent & stronger storms, worse droughts & floods, and more death and destruction – all while people pay unmanageable energy bills for oil, gas & coal

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

As the world prepares for COP30 in the Amazon, the rainforest is already dangerously close to collapse. The EU-Mercosur deal approved by the European Commission today brings that tipping point one step closer. MEPs and governments must reject this dangerous deal! #StopEUMercosur #RespectTheAmazon

If you do one thing today, please take a few minutes to add your voice to this incredibly important call to protect nature. #HandsOffNature

The EU’s 2040 climate targets should move us away from fossil fuels, towards renewables and energy-saving, giving people lower bills, cosier homes and cleaner air Instead the @ec.europa.eu relies on dodgy accounting and offshore carbon laundering, still falling below what its own scientists advise

Good morning #StopEUMercosur

Rules that keep toxic chemicals out of food, toys, clothes, toiletries, furniture and countless other products are not "red tape" – they are essential protections for people's health, and the environment Dumping these rules to help the profits of the chemical industry is irresponsible and dangerous
