Indigenous people in the #Amazon have been protesting for over two weeks at Cargill's port terminal. They've been warning for months that port expansion will harm their way of life. “The government is opening up our territories to many projects” –Auricelia Arapiuns https://bit.ly/45N2gCz

Cargill ships more soybeans from Brazil than any other company in the world. Their operations destroy forests. Now, they're threatening to destroy waterways, specifically the #Amazon's Tapajos River. We support the Indigenous people who are now blockading Cargill's facility! https://bit.ly/4r3BOxc

Industrial agriculture, logging, and mining are threats to forests, but the ROADS these industries pave cause even more damage. Each road fragments the ecosystem, interfering with the ways it collects water, filters pollution & aids animal migration. #KeepForestsStanding https://on.nrdc.org/4axpm2A

Allies of Grassy Narrows First Nation, who have been fighting against mercury poisoning for years, asked Ontario Premier Doug Ford if the community would receive compensation. He dodged the question and thanked Ontario police for dragging the protesters out. Shame! #FreeGrassy https://bit.ly/45LKGih

National Oreo Day is March 6th, and people across the country will take part in coordinated events to hold Oreo and its parent company, Mondelēz International, accountable for harming people and the planet throughout their supply chain. Join us in saying enough is enough!👇 ran.org/oreo-day

Indigenous people in #Brazil are blockading facilities operated by agribusiness giant, Cargill! This comes after Lula signed a decree allowing the government to consider setting aside waterways for private use, without consultation of affected communities in the #Amazon. https://bit.ly/4qk4XTj

The 16th #BankingOnClimateChaos revealed that fossil fuel financing from the world’s top 65 banks reached $7.9 TRILLION from 2016-2024. See how your bank is using your money at bankingonclimatechaos.org 💸🔥🌍 #DefundClimateChaos #BOCC

The US “dash for gas” is not only driving us further into the #ClimateCrisis, but also harming low income communities on the Gulf Coast. The kicker? These projects are not profitable! LNG has too many financial, legal & reputation risks. Financiers should back out now. #NoLNG

Shame! Grassy Narrows First Nation deserves justice! #FreeGrassy

25 years ago, the U.S. Forest Service adopted the Roadless Area Conservation Rule to protect 58 million acres from logging & roadbuilding. Last year, Trump announced a plan to repeal the rule. Protecting forests should be a priority for everyone, regardless of politics! https://bit.ly/4brvR8g

The IEA projects that 2026 will be one of the largest oversupplies of crude oil in history, at 4 million barrels/day. Meanwhile, banks pour billions into fossil fuels & fossil fuel giants are mobilize $100 BILLION to extract #Venezuela's oil resources. #JustTransition NOW! https://bit.ly/4rl3sVU

The climate crisis is costly. It's estimated that 2025's climate disaster cost a total of $55 BILLION. This cost will only increase. Banks and insurers who continue to finance fossil fuels are shooting themselves in the foot, and taking us down with them. #DefundClimateChaos https://bit.ly/4t5VD8n

We support the National Day of Action THIS Friday, January 30th. People across the United States will walk out of school and work, and shut down business as usual in response to the dangerous and violent escalation by ICE in Minnesota. Sign on and find an action near you: NationalShutdown.org

Mahakam Ulu is an ancient watershed in East Kalimantan that's teeming with wildlife. The Mahakam River connects 9 Dayak Indigenous communities & 18 ethnic groups. Right now 90% of #MahakamUlu remains forested, but we've found that industrial threats to the area has increased. https://bit.ly/45CrBPt

We've joined 1000+ organizations in demanding that Congress halt funding for ICE's deadly operations until the violence, abuses, & deaths in U.S. communities & immigration detention centers stop. We're horrified at the execution of civilians peacefully protesting ICE's tactics https://bit.ly/4t6XdXC

The EPA is looking to revise the Clean Water Act, specifically a section that gives tribes authority over federal projects. Tribes will review a proposed project to determine its impacts on water, wildlife, and cultural sites. This is a direct threat to Indigenous sovereignty. https://bit.ly/4rlTNi9

We’re entering this year with a message: the planet will not thrive under the same financial systems that are driving its destruction. We’ll keep confronting the drivers of environmental harm, strengthen relationships with frontline communities, & advocating for human rights. https://bit.ly/3Ma1wAI

The right to protest, the right to dissent, the right to vote your conscience — without the fear of being killed by masked federal agents or falsely labeled a 'domestic terrorist' — we are witnessing these rights being systematically undermined in real time.

We challenge corporate power because we know that corporations are to blame for the climate crisis! Just 32 companies are responsible for over HALF of all fossil carbon emissions in 2024, with ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, ConocoPhillips, and BP leading the pack. https://bit.ly/4sTj1pA

The government of #Indonesia could seize mining activities across more than 190,000 hectares of forest cleared illegally. The Deputy Forestry Minister has said that many of these companies do not have forestry use permits. So far, the government has obtained 8,769 hectares. https://bit.ly/4bJXDwI

Methane gas, AKA liquefied "natural" gas or #LNG, is extremely dangerous for our climate. @oilfieldwitness.bsky.social#LNGdebunks the idea that LNG is "clean" – it's emissions are actually 33% worse than coal, when processing & shipping are taken into account https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKBQhTFDwI0

From Snoopy the echidna to a species of spider called the "psychedelic earth tiger," these cool wildlife photos remind us why these animals and the habitats they live in are so important to protect 💚 https://bit.ly/4a4xTdd

The trial for the murder of Apu Quinto Inuma began yesterday in Peru. Quinto spent years defending his community’s land and denouncing threats. His killing reflects a wider pattern of violence against Indigenous defenders across the #Amazon. https://bit.ly/3NuNCK0 #JusticeForQuinto

This wasn’t a neutral update. It was a decision. MLK Day and Juneteenth were removed from the National Park Service's fee-free park days, and replaced with Flag Day (also Donald Trump's birthday). Sign on to our letter to DOI: restore the original fee-free holidays. https://bit.ly/3LMfvMW

Today we honor MLK's legacy. We know that environmental injustice is fundamentally tied to systemic racism. Who gets access to green space, clean air, and safe water is shaped by power, not chance. At RAN, we're committed to continue fighting for environmental justice and a livable planet for ALL.

The LA fires killed at least 31 people & destroyed over 10,000 homes, but fire victims have faced skyrocketing insurance rates or had claims denied. Insurers must be held accountable – both for fueling the climate crisis and for failing their customers climate disasters. https://bit.ly/3Ll75vX

Fire victims of the LA fires have seen their insurers delay, underpay and even straight up deny customers’ claims. Meanwhile, the insurance industry is a major driver of the climate crisis, by providing insurance for the oil & gas projects worsening emissions. #InsureOurFuture https://n.pr/49uzsj2

@stand.earth's latest report, "Banks vs. The Amazon," analyzed 330 banks and revealed that they've provided $15 BILLION in financing for oil & gas extraction in the #Amazon, since 2016. $2 billion of that was disbursed between January 2024 to June 2025 to only SIX companies. https://bit.ly/4qqlF4u

We at RAN want to add our voice to the chorus of celebration for the life and legacy of Grateful Dead Co-Founder and cultural icon Bob Weir, who recently passed. Bob Weir has served as an honorary board member and steadfast supporter of our work. May he Rest in Peace 🤎 https://bit.ly/49Dgkj5

RAN condemns the system terror campaign being waged against U.S. residents by masked federal agents. This has led to horrific fatalities – including the recent killings of Renee Good and Silverio Villegas Gonzáles. We mourn every person who has been a victim of this violent campaign by ICE.

Cyclone Senyar destroyed thousands of homes and cost over 11,000 lives in Indonesia. Industrial logging played a big part in this disaster. Not only did piles of timber get swept into towns, but the deforestation caused by this industry created the conditions for catastrophe. https://bit.ly/4ptxipO

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) has been delayed yet again, thanks to corporate lobbying. The law would ban imports of cocoa, palm oil & other commodities linked to forest destruction. It's time for regulators to put their foot down! https://reut.rs/49MlcU8

We've linked forestry giant, Royal Golden Eagle's wood pulp supply chain to the clearance of 5,565 hectares (13,751 acres) of forest between 2020 and 2024. The deforestation impacts the #MahakamUlu region, one of the last intact rainforests & a habitat for endangered species. https://bit.ly/3N8cUxe

🇺🇸 🇪🇸 The US was Spain's 3rd largest gas supplier in 2024 🇪🇺 Instead of cutting this dependence, the EU has decided to triple its imports ⚠️ Over 94% of gas from the US comes from the Gulf South, harming local communities Sign the petition to pressure the EU to stop buying gas: https://bit.ly/4aPwgku

We've exposed Oreo-maker, Mondelēz, for their lack of accountability. Without a Human Rights Defender policy they're failing to address intimidation & criminalization of communities along their supply chain Aid Environment has also found weaknesses in Mondelēz's supply chain👇 https://bit.ly/3YsovcQ

The International Energy Agency found that a cleaner, faster energy transition will actually be cheaper for consumers in the long-run. But only FIVE of Europe’s biggest banks have fully ruled out financing companies engaged in oil & gas expansion. See where your bank stands: https://bit.ly/3YrMd9e

As of 2023, palm oil concessions in the rainforest region of #MahakamUlu totaled around 33,982 hectares (83,971 acres), pushing many species toward extinction and driving biodiversity toward collapse. See our findings here: https://www.ran.org/forest-frontlines/mahakam-landscape-under-threat/
