Over 1,000 lives have already been lost since the US and Israel’s attack on #Iran. Alongside immense human suffering, the war is already having huge economic consequences that extend far beyond the region.

Did you know that vulture funds can sue countries in debt to make a profit?
It's absolutely outrageous - that's why I've signed @debtjustice.bsky.social petition calling for an end to this predatory practice.

Mounting debt crisis means global South governments are spending on average 15% of their revenue servicing external debt. This figure has doubled since 2010.
More than 3.4 billion people now live in countries that spend more on interest payments than on health or education.
Our partners in Sri Lanka have release a powerful statement following Cyclone Ditwah.
It highlights that it's impossible to rebuild when IMF conditions slash subsidies, shrink public spending, and demand privatisation. Climate-vulnerable communities need support, not austerity.
Want to know how #COP30 outcomes stacked up against demands for debt and climate justice? 🌍💸
We’ve got you covered ✅ Our blog breaks down the failure to deliver on public #ClimateFinance and #DebtJustice, and the opportunities ahead as we continue the fight ✊🔥

BREAKING 🚨: The government has just announced that they are ending new oil and gas exploration in the UK and have started a plan for workers and communities to transition away from fossil fuels.

COP30 largely failed to respond to the realities of the climate crisis and the demands of vulnerable countries. Bertha Argueta Eurodad
1️⃣0️⃣years on from the #ParisAgreement and at a time when its 1.5C target is slipping out of reach, #COP30 was a win for a #JustTransition but a loss for climate ambition.

The Budget Must Address the Household Debt Crisis
The cost-of-living crisis isn’t over. Unemployment and bankruptcies are rising, and more than 10 million people are affected by growing household debt. This budget is a crucial moment for action.
🧵
The COP30 outcome gives a glimpse of progress towards a just transition, but leaves huge questions about finance provision.
Undemocratic, unaccountable financial institutions remain at the centre, with urgent need for reform.
Reflections from Recourse's @fstrub.bsky.social 🧵 #COP30
1/3.🗣️ At the Global Campaign to Demand Climate Justice (DCJ) press conference today at #COP30 Brazil in Belém, Lidy Nacpil of #APMDD condemned the Global North’s “sheer climate hypocrisy” in promoting a fossil fuel transition roadmap while expanding fossil fuel financing at home and abroad 🔥💸.
1/4.🗣️ At the Global Campaign to Demand Climate Justice (DCJ) press conference today at COP30 Brazil in Belém,
#meenaraman, of the Third World Network broke down the finance crisis at the heart of negotiations 💰🔥.
Ahead of the UK budget, government debt has dominated headlines. Threat of a UK “debt crisis” is used to justify cuts in welfare and public services.
But the story is far more nuanced and the REAL global debt crisis isn’t getting nearly enough attention. @tim-jones6.bsky.social explains
🧵
It's crunch time at #COP30 and we want to remind Global North governments of the obligations they keep trying to escape.
🛑We reject their false finance schemes, and demand the public, grant-based finance our communities deserve.
#PayUp #ClimateFinance
📢📢 CSOs at #COP30 demand debt cancellation for the Global South.
🎤Say:
❌ There's no climate action under a debt burden
🛑 We must reject debt swaps and other false finance solutions

Meet the world’s loan sharks 🦈👇🏾

(Nov 11th) Carbon Markets Action: Activists, frontline leaders and communities started Day 2 of #COP30 resisting the #CarbonCasino at the #ClimateTalks where rich nations and corporations gamble our lives, territories and the planet’s future away.

SAVING MULTILATERALISM IS NOT ENOUGH FOR SAVING THE PLANET AND THE POOR: The Paris Agreement’s promise of a unified climate solution faces a harsh reality of injustices and inadequate action #COP30

🚨BREAKING: fossil fuel reps met government ministers 500+ times in Labour’s first year in power.
💀 That’s two meetings every working day, overshadowing the meetings held with climate and social justice groups by three to one (1/5)
More than 45 charities, campaigners and trade unions have signed our open letter urging UK Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero Ed Miliband to back an ambitious outcome on just transition at the UN Climate Summit #COP30.
While this year's G20 has been put forward as an 'African G20', there is no evidence that any progress has been made on the debt crisis facing Africa and many other countries worldwide.
South Africa’s #G20 presidency has the potential to catalyse meaningful global #debt reform, but so far nothing tangible has been achieved.
1️⃣6️⃣5️⃣ organisations have called on @cyrilramaphosabsky.bsky.social to take action on the #debtcrisis.
Read the call here➡️ www.eurodad.org/letter_to_sa...
Colonial exploitation didn’t just steal resources; it built systems that locked many African communities into ecological and economic fragility, vulnerabilities that climate change now makes worse.
Today, climate hazards mirror these colonial legacies.
