Trump called climate change a “con job” at #UNGA. Our Founding Director @harjeet11.bsky.social responds: this is a reckless assault on our shared future, emboldening fossil fuels and rolling back hard-won progress. We must hold the US accountable and push for ambition at #COP30. ⏳🌍

Landmark court ruling a stark rebuke of Canadian position on climate change The ICJ finding is a watershed moment in the fight against climate change that should send shivers down the spine of the fossil fuel industry, while threatening to upend the legality of Prime Minister...

Huge climate win from the ICJ that sharply rebuked Canada which argued it was not bound by international law to seriously fight climate change.

Going forward “Canada's pursuit of mega fossil fuel expansion projects stands in stark defiance of the ICJ." www.nationalobserver.com/2025/07/23/n...

"For frontline communities suffering most, this ruling offers historic protection. Our suffering, loss, & terrifying storms can now be met with demands for justice, restitution, & repair. The message is clear: the polluters must pay."

"The ICJ clarifies these entities have a duty to prevent significant harm & to cooperate in addressing this global emergency. The findings pave the way for full reparations – meaning polluters must not only cease harm but also provide financial compensation."

#MakePollutersPay 4/5

"States must now rigorously regulate, constrain, and ultimately dismantle the fossil fuel industry's capacity to inflict further harm. For too long, fossil fuel corporations profited while knowingly driving us to catastrophe. No more."

#FossilFuelPhaseOut #StatesMustAct 3/5

"This landmark decision unequivocally imposes robust obligations on states to compel fossil fuel producers to drastic & immediate action, holding them categorically responsible for the damage they've unleashed. This mandates a fundamental shift."

#ClimateAccountability 2/5

My reaction to the International Court of Justice's historic Advisory Opinion on States' climate obligations:

"The ICJ ruling is a #watershed moment for #ClimateJustice. It's a resounding declaration: the era of impunity for polluters and complicit states is officially over."

Boo #G20! ❌❌❌

With heatwaves, floods, storms and injustice claiming lives across the planet, only 5 - FIVE! - of the world's 20 richest economies have bothered to provide their national climate action plans so far this year.

#LossAndDamage Fund Update: Start-up Phase Launched, Concerns Remain

@harjeet11.bsky.social explains the outcome of the 5th Board meeting (B5) of the Fund for responding to Loss and Damage, which launched the Barbados Implementation Modalities (BIM).

A new proposal is out for a start-up phase of the #LossAndDamage Fund is out & it still does NOT MENTION COMMUNITY ACCESS.

❌ This is unacceptable for a Fund that is meant to serve communities on the frontlines of the #ClimateCrisis. The Board has lost track of its mandate.

#RestoreTheCompass

🚨 At the 5th Board Meeting of the Fund for Responding to #LossAndDamage (FRLD), we are deeply concerned with the draft decision text.
