For decades, #FossilFuel & high-emitting industries have sabotaged climate progress through lobbying, disinformation, and PR stunts.
Now, Brazil’s #COP30 President invited corporations to join in Belém without clear safeguards against greenwashing or conflict of interest.
This is #CorporateCapture.

225+ Organizations demand COP30 center people, not polluters.

#COP30 is not a place for #BigPolluters to make business deals!

@stopcorpabuse.bsky.social

Calling this years' U.N. climate treaty negotiations a "defining business opportunity" is like calling a burning house the perfect fire to roast marshmallows over.

It's time to end #BigPolluters' stranglehold over the U.N. climate talks. We demand a polluter-free #COP30!

NGOs urge Brazil to prevent fossil fuel capture of COP30 climate summit NGOs urge Brazil to keep fossil fuel firms out of COP30 More than 200 civil society groups are asking Brazil's COP30 team to commit to "polluter-free" climate negotiations in Belém

#COP30 must center people, NOT #BigPolluters' business deals! The Kick Big Polluters Out coalition demands:
📌Polluter-free COP & presidency
📌Stronger mechanisms to protect against conflicts of interest
📌Protection of the Amazon rainforest

Continuing to allow the #FossilFuel industry's unchecked participation will undermine the urgent action needed in the face of #ClimateEmergency.

As @lienvandamme.bsky.social (@ciel.org) says “Reforming the UN climate talks is more urgent than ever – COPs cannot continue as corporate trade shows.”

This #CorporateCapture cannot continue. It's time to end #BigPolluters' stranglehold over the U.N. climate talks. We demand a polluter-free #COP30! kickbigpollutersout.org/Polluter-Fre...

For the entire history of UN climate talks, #BigPolluters have undermined ambitious climate action through lobbying & disinformation. Now Brazil's @Cop30noBrasil Presidency invited business leaders to #COP30 without protections against #greenwashing or conflict of interest

At #COP30 in #Belém, the world will be watching: Who’s funding your seat at the table? Whose interests are you really serving?

CIEL & allies demand an Accountability Framework to END polluter interference. No more sponsorships, no more loopholes.

The climate can’t wait.

The #FossilFuel industry is drivng the crisis AND writing the rules? That’s #CorporateCapture. And it’s killing COP’s credibility.

Transparency was step one. Step two? Kick them out. For good. 🚫🛢️

#KBPO

CIEL is proud to stand with the #KickBigPollutersOut coalition as the #UNFCCC takes a critical step: forcing all COP30 participants to publicly disclose their funders and affirm alignment with the Paris Agreement.
