🚨TOMORROW:

We stand united against the hatred & division of the far-right

We demand gov protect the ordinary people who keep this country running, not the super-rich

We send a clear message: billionaires and polluters must pay to fix the crises they're fuelling

Are you in?

Can't wait to shout #Makethempay tomorrow 20 September in London!

I am sooo excited about the International Court of Justice decision! #ClimateICJAO #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ. This is a validation of what an entire movement has been saying for years. Now all states must act, particularly those most responsible. For what it means for the #UK, see below👇

World’s highest court delivers historic protections for climate-impacted communities - Greenpeace International The Court’s decision obligates States to regulate businesses on the harm caused by their emissions regardless of where the harm takes place.

🌍 BREAKING: The UN #HRC just passed a #Climate & #HumanRights resolution, but without naming #FossilFuels.

💬 “We deeply regret the continued failure of the Council’s members to explicitly call for an equitable phase-out of fossil fuels, the root cause of the crisis.” - Sébastien Duyck, CIEL.

Latinoamérica lidera: la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos fortalece la lucha mundial por justicia climática Nuevo marco jurídico internacional, La Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos respalda a las comunidades frente a la crisis climática Decisión histórica

🚨 ¡Noticia histórica!
La Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos ha declarado que:

🟢 Los derechos humanos deben ser integrados en TODA política climática.
🔴 Los Estados tienen la obligación de reparar las pérdidas y daños causados por los efectos del cambio climático.

Natalie Shortall, Oxfam GB Climate Justice Policy Advisor, said:  “While some progress has been made, this report shows the Government must do more to ensure climate policies are fair and bring practical improvements to people’s lives. “With climate impacts escalating – hitting those least responsible for the crisis the hardest – Government policy must go beyond technological fixes and ensure everyone reaps the benefits from the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The Bonn Climate Conference (#SB62), meant to lay crucial groundwork for #COP30, is off to a shaky start.

Rich countries are once again dodging their duty to support those hardest hit by the climate crisis.

This isn’t just unfair—it’s a deep injustice. 🧵

The #UK cannot pretend to be a global leader on climate and then do nothing. Communities devastated by climate chaos and poorer countries moving away from fossil fuels are entitled to much more grant-based public finance. The good news? It's possible if you make polluters pay!

UN experts urge @coe.int Member States to negotiate an additional protocol to the European Convention to protect the right to a clean, healthy & sustainable environment.

This is appaling. Both the targeting of @youth-demand.bsky.social for their planning of peaceful protests against genocide and climate suicide, and the storming of a place of worship. Solidarity and keep up the good work!

Quakers condemn police raid on Westminster Meeting House Police broke into a Quaker Meeting House last night (27 March) and arrested six young people holding a meeting over concerns for the climate and Gaza.

🚨 Outrage as 20 police officers break into Westminster Quaker Meeting House and arrest six. 🚨
This shocking violation of a place of worship is a direct result of crackdowns on protest and dissent - freedom of speech, assembly and democracy are at risk.🕊️

So grim. First time a Quaker meeting house has been raided in living memory. Britain can be better than this.

Greenpeace must pay at least $660m over Dakota pipeline protests, says jury Non-profit, which will appeal decision, says lawsuits like this are aimed at ‘destroying the right to peaceful protest’

A North Dakota jury has ruled Greenpeace must pay $660M to Energy Transfer over Dakota Access pipeline protests.

This is SLAPP in action - a direct attack on free speech & peaceful protest.

We stand in solidarity with @greenpeace.org www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

🚨BREAKING🚨

The trial verdict is in. A jury in the Morton County courthouse found Greenpeace International and two Greenpeace entities in the United States liable for over US$ 660 million combined in Energy Transfer’s meritless SLAPP lawsuit.

Red box with white quote from Oxfam GB Chief Executive, Dr Halima Begum and Oxfam logo in the bottom right corner. The quote reads, "The cuts to the UK aid budget will have a huge impact on the vulnerable communities around the world and must be stopped. Oxfam also continues to advocate for alternative ways to generate the necessary finances, in particular through fairer taxes on the wealthiest in society."

Oxfam's @halimabegum.bsky.social says the appointment of Baroness Jenny Chapman to the role of International Development Minister raises potential questions about effective communications and accountability amid the broader crisis around UKaid: oxfam.org.uk/mc/ahdciz/

Green image with bank notes in the background. White text reads, "We could raise 24 billion pounds a year by taxing the super rich. So why cut aid to people facing poverty?"

📢 The UK Government plans to make deep cuts to the aid budget, claiming it’s a choice between defence spending or humanitarian aid. Yet a small tax on the super rich would raise £24 billion a year.

Chiara Liguori, Oxfam GB's Senior Climate Justice Policy Advisor: “It is gravely wrong that big polluters like BP can just abandon their climate targets in pursuit of higher profits. These profits come with a huge climate cost that impact us all, but it is people living in poverty who are left paying the highest price for a climate crisis they did little to cause."
