Your pension savings are at risk – and climate change is already reshaping the economy. Some funds are stepping up, others are falling behind. Where does your pension stand?

How does the expenditure of government energy and taxpayer dollars benefit communities?

What are the risks of #LNG projects? Are they REALLY of national interest?

(Spoiler alert: they're not). #GreenSky

La plupart des RDIE visent les pays du Sud et sont intentés par des investisseurs provenant d’un petit nombre de pays riches (dont le Canada), creusant davantage les inégalités mondiales.

La justice climatique commence par la fin de ces inégalités. ✊

Le RDIE permet aux entreprises d’énergies fossiles de poursuivre les gouvernements en justice pour des politiques climatiques visant à protéger l’environnement.

La simple menace d’un RDIE suffit à forcer les gouvernements à reculer sur leurs politiques, et même à les abandonner.

Le règlement des différends entre investisseurs et États (RDIE) compromet l'action climatique dans le monde entier. Ce système hérité de l'ère coloniale privilégie les multinationales et renforce les inégalités mondiales. 👇

Most ISDS cases target Global South countries, while most investors come from a small number of wealthy nations (including #Canada), reinforcing deep global inequalities.

Climate justice starts with ending this imbalance. ✊

ISDS allows fossil fuel companies to sue governments over policies designed to meet #climate commitments & protect the #environment.

Even the threat of an #ISDS claim can lead to governments reversing, weakening, or abandoning legitimate public-interest policies.
