Deadly heatwaves are hitting the UK. This is not the moment for more oil & gas. Burnham just backed a global plan to phase out fossil fuels. Now, reports suggest he'll back new North Sea drilling—a big reversal + mistake for the economy, climate, & UK. financialpost.com/pmn/business...

Why is a Japanese bank financing buildout of LNG export terminals in Texas -- next to vulnerable communities that have already endured decades of fossil fuel pollution?

1/ Europeans are outraged that Trump’s political pressure influenced FIFA. They should be just as outraged when Trump pressures Europe to buy more U.S. gas. #WorldCup, #FIFAWorldCup, #WorldCup2026 sports.yahoo.com/soccer/artic...

“Freeport LNG is poisoning people in my community,” says Manning Rollerson. Freeport, TX residents live next to a dirty, risky gas project that threatens their health & safety. In May, community leaders flew to Tokyo to confront Japanese institutions funding the project. [1/4]

The EU is considering weakening a signature climate policy after heavy lobbying from the Trump administration and the fossil fuel industry. It needs to stand up for people and planet instead. @andygheorghiu.bsky.social

🔥 VICTORY! Whilst France is currently experiencing an unprecedented heatwave, judges have ruled that TotalEnergies failed to comply with its climate obligations. This is a landmark decision that lays the groundwork for putting an end to climate impunity for multinationals.

UN Secretary-General Guterres is right to treat this moment with the urgency it demands and convene world leaders in September to discuss how they will cooperate to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels and make it orderly and fair. #LCAW2026 Learn more ➡️ oilchange.org/news/respons...

As Europe roasts, its leaders are considering weakening a landmark climate rule. The EU must stand up against Trump + the fossil fuel lobby and keep protections against climate chaos + deadly pollution in place. Read the open letter from 96 organizations: bit.ly/4vYETAw

🚨BREAKING: Starmer’s resignation must not end progress on climate. Ending new North Sea oil & gas licensing (the largest oil & gas producing country to do so) was significant + the next PM must resist fossil fuel pressure to reverse. Our statement: oilchange.org/news/keir-st...

1/5 Deal or no deal, Trump’s war on Iran is making billionaires more billions. Despite the agreement signed between Iran and the United States, the price of crude oil will remain elevated until the end of 2026. 🧵

1/5 The U.S. and Iran have announced an agreement that could lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Any step to reduce violence is welcome. But this should not be mistaken for the end of the crisis. 🧵

It’s time Congress puts working families—not fossil fuel corporations—at the center of U.S. energy policy. @SenJeffMerkley’s new legislation clarifies no new LNG export projects should get approval when it raises prices for families at home. bit.ly/4xpl86A

1/ The UN General Assembly has adopted a landmark resolution backing the International Court of Justice’s 2025 climate advisory opinion. This is a major moment for climate accountability. 🧵

Key findings: - The project captured 15x less than announced capacity in its first months; - Technical problems and accidents have been reported. Workers were told to keep costs to a minimum; - The little cement produced has sold poorly, despite false advertising that it is 'emissions free.' 2/2

Trump plans to give $75M to construct a coal terminal in Oakland that residents have fought for a DECADE. If built, it would blanket communities with toxic coal dust. ✊ If you're in the East Bay, join a community meeting to strategize + fight back: https://bit.ly/43ren6O

Investigative journalists have today published a massive expose on Norway's CCS initiative, Northern Lights, in German, French, and Belgian papers. This is not the first time those of us in Norway have had to rely on overseas journalists - there is no critical debate on CCS in the country! 1/2

Tireless community organizers have fought off the horrific proposal to create an Oakland coal export terminal for over a decade. But our petrofascist-in-chief wants to tip the scales in favor of pollution and destruction. So get ready Oakland, we're going to need to show them what NO means.

NEW: I went inside one Texas county's data center boom—and backlash—to report on how the state GOP's data center divide will shape the next legislative session.

We’re at a critical moment for our climate. Every dollar spent on fossil fuels is too much. Big banks know this & yet #BankingOnClimateChaos shows overall fossil fuel financing is INCREASING, climbing by $64 BILLION from 2024 to 2025. bankingonclimatechaos.org #DefundClimateChaos

CA issued 190 new well permits in Q1 2026 — 154 for Enhanced Oil Recovery, the dirtiest extraction there is. Total drilling permits, including reworks: 245. Newsom backed the bill that made this possible. "Blatantly hypocritical." — Consumer Watchdog https://bit.ly/49w1HPl

🚨 A devastating new BBC investigation has obtained internal Shell documents revealing the company knowingly operated a major pipeline in Nigeria for years while it was causing widespread pollution. #ShellKnew www.bbc.com/news/article...

As Big Oil company TotalEnergies held its annual meeting in Paris, people rallied in a Week of Action across Africa, Europe, and Latin America with nearly 70 actions in 20 countries to push back on polluting companies, demanding they cease operations and fix past harms.

Countries facing rising energy costs, inflation & debt don't need pledges, they need plans to transition away from fossil fuels. Our oped in @climatenews.bsky.social w/ @350.org argues COP31 should push for national roadmaps that turn promises into action. www.climatechangenews.com/2026/05/29/c...

The Trump administration is rushing to let its Big Oil donors profit from drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge — a sacred place for the Gwich’in people and a critical wildlife habitat. 👉 Tell oil companies to stay out of the Arctic Refuge! bit.ly/4vjHghb

Unless leaders change course, fossil fuel investment will rise and clean energy investment stagnate. Fossil fuel executives make billions from war + suffering, while it's energy insecurity + higher bills for us. Renewable energy is faster to build, cheaper + more secure oilchange.org/news/in-resp...

“The Freeport LNG project is poisoning people in my community,” Manning Rollerson, founder and director of the Freeport Haven Project, said. Japan must stop funding polluting, climate-wrecking liquified natural gas projects in the US Gulf South and around the world. bit.ly/4uIGL0h

Wondering why your gas bill's been so high lately? Thank Trump's support for gas export projects, which drive up prices for US households. Now, the Trump admin wants to rubber-stamp even more gas export projects, including one off the TX coast. Speak out against their plan: bit.ly/4v0uSm2

This Memorial Day Weekend, Americans Will Spend $3.5 Billion More on Gas Thanks to Trump's Iran War ​The average household has already paid an additional $291 for gas since the war began and could spend $1,450 by year's end.

🚨🚨BREAKING: Texas community leaders are in Tokyo to file a first-of-a-kind series of coordinated complaints against the Japanese financial institutions that backed Freeport LNG, a dangerous, polluting liquified natural gas (LNG) project near their homes 🚨🚨

🚨Our new report with @foescot.bsky.social and Transition Economics shows what Reform UK's climate policy rollback would actually cost: nearly 500,000 jobs destroyed within 3 years. That's comparable to almost every teacher in the UK losing their job. Read more here: bit.ly/49LLiWW

🧵Our new report with @foescot.bsky.social and Transition Economics has put a number on what Reform UK's climate policy rollback would actually cost: nearly 500,000 jobs destroyed within 3 years. That's comparable to almost every teacher in the UK losing their job. Here's what we found 👇

The first ever international conference focused on transitioning off of fossil fuels...was a historic step, but also revealed just how difficult it will be to change entrenched systems. Read the analysis from @ninalakhani.bsky.social @drilledmedia.bsky.social drilled.media/news/santa-m...

The fossil fuel industry is structured to export resources and profits and funnel them to multinational companies, instead of investing in jobs and local communities. #PipeDreams #AfricaFranceSummit #JustTransition

As debt burdens rise+climate finance deepens inequalities, Global South countries face barriers to just energy transition. In Santa Marta, experts share how to break the debt–fossil–climate cycle @latindadd.bsky.social @oxfaminternational.bsky.social @debtforclimate.bsky.social @cesr.bsky.social

In Santa Marta, Indigenous + Afro descendant communities, workers & frontline leaders released the People’s Declaration ❌No delay ❌No false solutions ✅Fast, fair, fully funded fossil fuel phaseout with reparations, public finance, + justice at its core. fossilfreerising.org/declaration

Earth Day started as a demand for change. Despite decades of disasters, fossil fuel expansion continues, pushed by the same interests profiting from crisis + conflict. We need fast, fair, full, and funded phaseout for a planet where we can all thrive. #EarthDay

1/ Here’s a snapshot of tankers currently heading to the U.S. to load up on crude. It took weeks to offload oil already in transit when U.S./Israel attacked Iran. THIS buffered the initial shock. Now that the cushion is gone, the disruption is intensifying. 🧵👇

None of the measures announced by AccelerateEU address the ongoing efforts to increase fossil fuel imports, especially LNG from the US. Reducing gas demand will mean nothing if it’s not accompanied by concrete measures to actually end the EU’s fossil fuel dependency. oilchange.org/news/respons...
