🚨BREAKING 🚨
Huge Climate March underway in Glasgow!
People coming together across movements and groups to demand a better world!
#ScotlandsClimateMarch #COP30
We come together across our movements – from Palestine solidarity, migrant justice,
nature protection and for a transition that creates jobs and fights poverty.
We are stronger when we connect our issues and demand justice alongside each other.
#ScotlandsClimateMarch
People and waters converge in Belém do Pará 🌊✊🏾
A flotilla of more than 200 boats opened the Peoples' Summit organised by social movements from around the world, sailing in a river mobilization for the defence of territories, climate justice and in solidarity with Palestine.
#COP30 #PeoplesSummit
Today is the anniversary of the 9 Ogoni leaders executed for having stood up against Shell
Shell is a #CorporateClimateCriminal and symbol of a fossil fuel economy built on violence and extraction. It's part of a system that we're resisting as we build a future that centres life
#ShellMustFall
A figure showing all ghg emissions rising
Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions rise again in 2024, up 2.3%.
This is our collective progress, 10 years after the Paris Agreement.

TEN DAYS until Scotland's climate march - are you coming?

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com
🚨 BREAKING 🚨
Britain is being SUED - all because the High Court rightly ruled that the Cumbria coal mine must not go ahead over its climate impacts.
Corporations should not be allowed to sue us for taking climate action! #EndISDS

"A strong global plastics treaty isn't just about reducing pollution — it’s our opportunity to end the injustice of waste trade, ensuring that no community becomes a dumping ground for another’s excess."

Day 1️⃣ at the UN negotiations for a global #PlasticsTreaty have kicked off!
We're here to demand action at every stage of the plastics lifecycle and plastic production reduction, block corporate interests from influencing #INC52 and to call for an end to the neocolonial plastics waste trade
Energy giant SSE may keep Scotland’s dirtiest power station open until 2040 – 10 years longer than planned – which critics fear could 'blow an enormous hole' in the Scottish Government’s climate strategy
Read the latest investigation from The Ferret ⬇️
On LBC @zoejardiniere.bsky.social lists 3 previous instances where military aircraft have been targeted by campaigners in order to prevent them being used in war crimes, and she describes the govt banning Palestine Action as terrorists as an abuse of state power.
Well said.
Say goodbye to 1.5°C. But remember, the next target is 1.51°C and not 2°C. We need to keep fighting.
Every tonne of CO₂ emitted makes the job of future CO₂ removal harder, and every 0.01°C of temperature increase makes the world more chaotic and dangerous.
🚨 BREAKING UPDATE
Labour has FINALLY accepted defeat in our legal challenge of anti-protest powers
We won this case in court twice - under both Conservative and Labour leadership
Gov must now commit to reviewing ALL arrests made under these unlawful powers
www.lbc.co.uk/news/exclusi...
The Scottish Government now doesn't have a Climate Minister.
John Swinney has removed 'climate' and 'just transition' from Ministerial titles since he became First Minister a year ago.
His Gov't has also scrapped annual targets & ditched key climate policies - making clear his priorities.
Nor if you wanted to cut emissions as fairly as possible, and support people rather than fossil fuel bosses
Just a reminder that the Scottish Government could raise up to £30m a year to invest in climate action that'd benefit us all if it landed a no-brainer tax on pollution-spewing private jets.
The First Minister says he backs the idea, but so far the idea remains stuck on the runway...
The results of a historic climate case #SaulvsRWE will be heard tomorrow in Germany.
Accountability for big polluters is coming - this ruling could become a global precedent, transforming how big emitters are held accountable for their role in the #climatecrisis
"excess pollution as a result of Dieselgate has killed about 16,000 people in the UK and caused 30,000 cases of asthma in children.. A further 6,000 premature deaths will occur in coming years without action"
The heartbeaking, infuriating impact of politicians putting polluters profit before people
Come work with us to make beautiful, impactful campaign videos and content!
All reports on this need to say that ‘small modular bucket reactors’ are *exactly* what Tony Blair’s patron, Ellison, is invested in!! Journalists can’t just transcribe this guff as if it’s on any way independent & credible. It is not.
Tony Blair is literally being paid by a man with one of the highest carbon footprints on the planet - Larry Ellison. The founder of Oracle is his biggest funder & these techsolutionist remarks have to be seen for what they are: tech lobbying

Brilliant piece from @carorance.bsky.social on the public support for ending new oil and gas and supporting workers "One million people is an enormous show of strength and shows the public appetite for a fast, fair transition away from fossil fuels." www.thenational.scot/politics/251...
💚The climate movement is powerful!
💪We were at 10 Downing Street with the support of over 1️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ people demanding a fair & fast transition away from oil & gas.
👀 Politicians must act now to end oil drilling & deliver a greener future for workers & communities.
Another climate promise dropped by John Swinney’s government.
Cutting car use and increasing affordable, accessible public transport will bring down climate emissions, cut toxic air pollution and connect communities. The Scottish Govt need to get a grip.
www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
🚗💨 The Scottish Government has ditched targets to cut car km by 20% by 2030.
This is yet another climate U-turn, despite transport being Scotland’s top source of emissions.
Lack of leadership = unsafe roads, poor public transport & broken promises.

Today, the Scottish Govt has ditched another crucial climate policy- to cut car km 20% by 2030
🚗 1 in 3 Scottish households don't have access to a car, dependent on expensive & unreliable public transport
😷 Air pollution kills 2700 in Scotland each year
🔥Transport is our biggest climate polluter
