Today we’re at the #MakeThemPay demonstration in London to demand that those responsible for climate breakdown and rising inequality pay up.

While polluting corporations and billionaires are allowed to destroy our planet, ordinary people are made to live with the consequences.

With its massive profits, the oil and gas industry has a chance to lead the energy transition.

Instead, it is driving its business into a dead end and leaving everyday people to pay the price of climate catastrophe. #ClimateAction

New polling from Data for Progress and Fossil Free Media finds that voters believe that oil and gas companies misled the public about the climate damages their products would cause and should be on the hook for some of the costs. Moreover, voters oppose providing oil and gas companies legal immunity from lawsuits and legislation seeking to recover climate-related damages.

Trump is trying to ban states from holding oil and gas companies accountable for climate costs, and make working people clean up polluters' mess.

@makepolluterspay.bsky.social's new poll finds it's wildly unpopular. 71% of voters, including 55% of Republicans want polluters to pay their fair share.

🔥 Energy industry profits hit £500 BILLION — while households freeze.

Since the energy crisis began in 2020, just 20 energy firms have made over half a trillion pounds in profit.

Greenpeace ordered to pay Dakota Access Pipeline operator hundreds of millions in defamation suit A North Dakota jury awarded damages to Energy Transfer, the company that runs the Dakota Access Pipeline, after finding Greenpeace liable in a high-stakes defamation case.

The decision regarding Energy Transfer v Greenpeace about the activism against the Dakota Access Pipeline is out. Not only will the decision likely bankrupt Greenpeace US, but it will set a precedent that could limit free speech by climate groups & other NGOs.

Thames Water have been allowed to add another £3 billion to their existing £19 billion of debt.

They've run up this bill by paying out huge amounts to bosses and shareholders instead of investing in our water infrastructure.

It's time for water to be run for people, not profit.
