The new #CarbonMajors report exposes the real political barriers to fossil fuel phase out. These polluters are powerful and persistent, not to mention profitable.

And their emissions are the cause of the deadly heat waves, floods, fires, and storms that kill thousands every year

#Klimakrise #Hitzewellen #CarbonMajors: Ursachen & Wirkungen
Eine Studie in Nature (09/2025) untersuchte 213 Hitzewellen zwischen 2000 und 2023. Alle wurden durch den menschengemachten Klimawandel verstärkt oder wahrscheinlicher. Neu ist: Die Forschenden quantifizieren den Anteil einzelner […]

The World’s Top Polluters: Power, Profit, And The Corporations Driving The Climate Crisis - Interconnected Earth When discussing climate change, we often overlook the role of major corporations as key polluters driving the crisis.

80% of emissions since the Paris Agreement come from just 57 entities. This isn’t about personal guilt—it’s about systemic power. Learn who’s behind it 👇 #climatechange #CarbonMajors #EnvironmentalJustice

Carbon majors e ondate di calore: la responsabilità delle grandi aziende nelle crisi climatiche Un nuovo studio pubblicato su Nature  – Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors – analizza per la prima volta in modo sistematico il contributo delle principali multinazionali del petrolio, del gas e del cemento (le cosiddette carbon majors) all’aumento di frequenza e intensità delle ondate di calore dal 2000 al 2023. I risultati sono dirompenti: circa 

🔥 Uno studio su Nature collega direttamente le #carbonmajors a metà dell’aumento d’intensità delle ondate di calore 2000-2023.
🇮🇹 Solo le emissioni di #Eni avrebbero reso possibili 50 eventi estremi, incluse le heatwaves italiane del 2003, 2011, 2018 e 2019.
#ClimateCrisis #Heatwaves

The individual contribution of the #CarbonMajors ( #FossilFuel and #cement producers) "is high enough to enable the occurrence of 16–53 #heatwaves that would have been virtually impossible in a preindustrial climate." #Climate, #ClimateChange

The ~7 years-long Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines Inquiry into the role of #CarbonMajors in climate-related human rights violations in the 🇵🇭 amassed a HUGE body of evidence

Pakistani farmers to sue German polluters over climate-linked flood damage Claimants seek compensation from RWE and Heidelberg Materials after extreme flooding destroyed harvests

Wenn ich sage #AncienRegime der Fossilen und Fools denke ich genau an dieses Ereignis, als sich Bürger:innen gegen unhaltbare Zustände ihrer Vernichtung durch die damaligen 1% zur Wehr setzten. Heute idem #Klimakrise #CarbonMajors etc

Leider wissen wir seitdem auch was alles nicht funktioniert hat.

The responsibility of investor-owned carbon majors to contribute to direct air carbon capture and storage investment Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) options are critical for achieving global climate objectives. Yet, many proposed removal technologies are in their formative phase. Significant near-term investments ar...

The world’s largest fossil fuel and cement companies should shoulder a major share of the investment needed to develop carbon removal technologies, according to a new peer-reviewed study in @climate-policy.bsky.social. #carbonmajors #CDR #climatepolicy

I could just sit here and cry. It would be even better to put the #fossilefools on trial and #makethempay for every of these consequences of their actions #Exxonknew #CarbonMajors = #Ecocriminals against Humanity.

Fossil Fuel Companies Linked to Rising Global Heatwaves

New research in Nature links 14 fossil‑fuel and cement firms to a median 0.8 °C rise in heatwave intensity since the early 2000s, with 213 major events studied between 2000‑2023. Read more: getnews.me/fossil-fuel-companies-li... #heatwaves #carbonmajors

Scientists link hundreds of severe heat waves to fossil fuel producers' pollution A new study finds dozens of heat waves would be "virtually impossible" without the activity of major fossil fuel producers, including oil companies.

We demand climate action. Send them an email now.

Will EU governments side with far right fearmongers and climate "deniers" (= criminals) ? #Exxonknew #CarbonMajors
Or will they listen to the citizens that demand climate action?

Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors - Nature Climate change made 213 historical heatwaves reported over 2000–2023 more likely and more intense, to which each of the 180 carbon majors (fossil fuel and cement producers) substantially contributed.

🌀📣 “the scientific case for climate liability is closed “ says lead author of NEW Nature study: may be a game changer tracing and attributing climate damages such as from heat waves 🥵 back to emissions from individual fossil fuel companies #ClimateAction #CarbonMajors

Enorme travail de @wimthiery.bsky.social (VUB), Yann Quincaille, Sonia Seneviratne et leur équipe!

Remedy and Reparations for Climate Harm: The Human Rights Case (November 2024) - Center for International Environmental Law CIEL new report sets out the legal basis for demanding that States and corporations uphold their obligations to provide redress formounting climate harm.

Why #SaulvsRWE matters?

⚖️ The Court already recognized the global nature of GHG emissions & related #ClimateHarm.

This is critical for:
⛽ corporate accountability of the #FossilFuels industry & other #CarbonMajors
🌱 the #RightToRemedy for #LossAndDamage

I’m suing a polluter 5,000 miles away — victory could change the world As floods from a melting glacier threaten his home, a man in the Andes is seeking damages from thousands of miles away. If he wins, he won’t be the last

👀 If the Court rule in favor of liability under tort law, this would set a game-changing precedent — sending shockwaves far beyond Germany, putting #CarbonMajors & their financial backers on notice.

36 aziende producono la metà dell'inquinamento mondiale: il rapporto Carbon Majors L’ultima edizione del Carbon Majors report rivela come nel 2023 un pugno di multinazionali abbia prodotto oltre 20 miliardi di tonnellate di CO2

"Metà delle emissioni di #CO2 mondiali viene prodotta da appena 36 multinazionali delle fonti #fossili. A rivelarlo è l’ultima edizione del #CarbonMajors report, che prende in esame i dati del 2023 relativi a 169 grandi aziende attive nei settori del #petrolio, #gas, #carbone e #cemento." 🏭

36 Companies Produced Half of Global Fossil Fuel CO2 Emissions in 2023 – Report Latest ‘Carbon Majors’ analysis bolsters the case for corporate climate accountability.

"Fossil fuel companies have long prioritized profits over the planet, and it's high time we hold them accountable for their outsized role in driving the climate crisis" said @350.org's Savio Carvalho
