Only two years left of world’s carbon budget to meet 1.5C target, scientists warn Breaching threshold would ramp up catastrophic weather events, further increasing human suffering

We’re wasting the remaining carbon budget on war and AI.

At #COP30 & beyond, the fight for climate justice must end corporate impunity

🚨 At #COP30 & beyond, the fight for climate justice must end corporate impunity

As delegates gather at #SB62, the truth is that the climate crisis is caused by corporate power run wild

Today we joined allies across the movement for the red line for Palestine demonstration outside parliament. Together we formed a human chain around Westminster. Then we went inside to tell our MPs why the UK must impose a full arms embargo on Israel now. #RedLineForPalestine

Friends of the Earth Hungary welcomes the Constitutional Court’s landmark ruling: the 2030 climate target is annulled, and the government is obliged to set a more ambitious goal and adopt a stronger climate law. #ClimateJustice #Hungary

For decades, fossil fuel companies have been trying to build the Alaska LNG project – a proposed fossil fuel gas pipeline & LNG terminal across the state

Big Oil has a plan to push this destructive project forward – have billions of our tax dollars subsidize this dying industry.

Transnational corporations built a global architecture of impunity to avoid being held accountable for their violations against people and planet

We're organising in Geneva this week with @stoptncimpunity.bsky.social to demand an end to corporate power and justice for those affected

Carbon footprint of Israel’s war on Gaza exceeds that of many entire countries Exclusive: The climate cost is more than than the combined 2023 emissions of Costa Rica and Estonia, study finds

By me: Climate cost of Israel’s war on Gaza will exceed the annual greenhouse gas emissions of >100 countries - exacerbating planetary catastrophe on top of the horrific death toll and suffering of Palestinians

Today a German court set a powerful precedent in the climate lawsuit of Peruvian farmer SaΓΊl Luciano Lliuya and German energy giant RWE - for the first time in history, a high court in Europe ruled major emitters can be held liable in civil law for the consequences of the #climatecrisis #SaulvsRWE

Global warming likely to exceed 1.5 degree benchmark by 2029, UN says There is a 70 percent chance that average global temperatures will by 2029 exceed the 1.5 degrees Celsius warming benchmark, significantly intensifying heatwaves, extreme precipitation, droughts, and the melting of glaciers, according to a new report released by the United Nations on Wednesday.

Australia's largest gas project approved for operation to 2070 The life of Australia's largest oil and gas project will be extended to 2070, with Environment Minister Murray Watt giving the long-awaited environmental approval for Woodside's North West Shelf proje...

This is devastating news.

In his first major decision, Environment Minister Murray Watt has extended the life of Australia's largest oil & gas project until 2070.

Tuvalu's Climate Minister Maina Talia said the extension "would threaten our survival".

Why is a Peruvian farmer taking Germany’s RWE to court over climate change? A Peruvian farmer is getting his day in court in a landmark climate case against German energy giant RWE that could shake up how the effects of companies' emissions are litigated.

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
