Israel has assassinated at least 238 journalists in Gaza in 22 months - war crimes aimed at silencing the truth. But the world sees the genocide against Palestinians aided by international arms and corporations - we must boycott, sanction, and divest now.

Top U.N. Court Says Countries Must Act on Climate Change

The International Court of Justice said countries must protect people from climate change, an urgent, existential threat. Failure to act is an internationally wrongful act; environmental protection is key to human rights. Though non-binding, the opinion could impact global climate cases and talks.

In landmark opinion, World Court says countries must address climate change The United Nations' highest court on Wednesday said countries must address the "urgent and existential threat" of climate change by cooperating to curb emissions, as it delivered an opinion set to determine future environmental litigation.

Plastics pollution is surging — the planned UN treaty to curb it must be ambitious New research on nanoplastics pollution and ‘chemicals of concern’ underscores the need for a strong agreement when negotiations restart in Switzerland next month.

“More than half of the plastics ever made were created after 2000.”

Reminder: plastic recycling systems barely work.

It’s the same fossil fuel industry grift: extract, pollute, say you can’t live without out it, then force you to figure out how to clean it up.

UN Human Rights Council omits fossil fuels after mention is removed A proposal calling on countries to transition away from fossil fuels had to be dropped from the final UN Human Rights Council resolution

Even if you try to ignore the climate-killing part of it, fossil fuels are responsible for an obscene amount of human rights abuses.

You see? This is why the UN can’t have nice things.
