This is a shambles. 9 months after the damage to the port it's still not fixed and still causing travel chaos.

The UN has confirmed that Israel has, and continues to, commit genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Trócaire urges all states and actors with any influence to do everything in their power to stop the state of Israel continuing this genocide. There is no time to lose. History is watching you.

We've taken another step in tackling industry interference at the UN climate talks ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾

Sustained campaigning from the #KickBigPollutersOut coalition means all non-govt participants heading to COP30 now have to declare who's funding their attendance.

Occupation through renewables

See how an Israeli energy company ‼️ with projects all over Europe ‼️is responsible for exploiting natural resources and production in the occupied Palestinian and Syrian territories.

“The use of carbon credits is simply magical thinking for a bloc unwilling to live up to its responsibility for causing the climate catastrophe we're already living through.”

Carbon credits don’t cut emissions but breaking away from fossil fuels does. Stop delaying it🔥

🇪🇺🚗 The EU car industry is NOT in crisis. It’s profitable, powerful, and using its influence to delay climate action.

Our new research reveals how the interests of the car industry have steered EU policy to put profits before people and the planet.

‼️ Alors que la France se dit garante de l'Accord de Paris sur le Climat, Emmanuel Macron envisage de tuer l’ambition climatique européenne pour 2035 et 2040, en s’alliant avec des pays ultra conservateurs et populistes.

Un thread 🧵

EAPNs anti-poverty recommendations are strong on ensuring no-one is left behind in the energy transition. People living in energy poverty should have targeted and adequate support for energy efficiency and housing renovations

Nigerian communities to take Shell to high court over oil pollution Residents of Bille and Ogale in Niger delta are suing Shell and subsidiary, but company denies liability

It's already been 10 years, but hopefully justice is creeping closer for communities who've had to live with Shell's pollution.

Fantastic initiative from @foeireland.bsky.social Everyone deserves to live in a decent home.

Trump and fossil fuel corporations now have EU climate protections in their sights and EU member states are preparing to jump on board. We need to break free from fossil fuels and fossil fuel corporations

1/ We say NO to #TrumpPutin #Gas, and NO to #Gas from anywhere. Fossil gas is not the future. Clean, 100% renewable solutions exist! Ahead of the June 16 Energy Council, we say it loud: Gas dependency = energy insecurity. Time to phase it out for good. #BeyondGas #EnergyJustice

Useful reminders from the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change:
- Even a 95 % domestic reduction by 2040 still leaves a gap between the EU’s contribution and its fair share of global mitigation efforts.
- International credits... entail significant risks to environmental integrity

☀️⚖️ Energy community means local, democratic, renewable.

But case studies from across Europe show a dangerous pattern of corporations exploiting weak laws to cash in on citizen-led energy.

We asked Eco-union to look into it, here's the report 👉 friendsoftheearth.eu/publication/...

Asian Civil Society Organizations Warn European Leaders about the ‘Japanese Model’ of LNG Investment - Oil Change International London, UK – Today, during the International Energy Agency (IEA) Summit, 27 civil society organizations from 9 countries in Asia sent a letter to European Union (EU) decision-makers warning them not…

1/ 📢 At the @IEA Summit, Asia CSOs warn EU: don’t repeat the ‘Japanese Model’ of investing public 💵 in LNG. LNG doesn't deliver #EnergySecurity - it's caused blackouts, debts & devastating climate + health impacts. EU must stay the course towards a #JustEnergyTransition

Incredible contrast between Central/Eastern and Western Europe last year. Everyone getting hotter (except Iceland) but Easter Europe most of all. Everyone will benefit from getting off fossil fuels fast. www.ecmwf.int/en/about/med...

Is the EU now gaming its climate targets? The European Commission is once again delaying its proposal for the European Climate Law amendment to set a 2040 climate target. Behind the missed deadlines lies a more concerning trend, warn Climate…

🌍 The EU's #2040Target risks becoming a patchwork of loopholes: backloading, carbon offsets, inflated removals & sectoral swaps.

📉 These aren't tweaks, they are dangerous shortcuts that undermine trust, ambition & global leadership.

BIG NEWS: A jury has reached a verdict that Greenpeace entities are liable for over $660 million in damages in our trial against Big Oil company Energy Transfer.

This is far from over. We’re going to appeal. And we’re prepared to fight this all the way to victory.

Respect aux supporters du Standard au Marien ce soir. Tous ensemble.

Why fear of billion-dollar lawsuits stops countries phasing out fossil fuels Companies can sue governments for closing oilfields and mines – and the risk of huge damages is already stopping countries from passing green laws, ministers say

How fossil fuel industry backed treaties are continuing to strangle the energy transition. It's long past time government's stop giving fossil fuel companies a stick to beat them with and cut out ISDS. It's a truly idiotic thing for governments to sign up to.

The Commission's Clean Industrial Deal just got another bit dirtier, delaying the transition to electric vehicles in a gift to the car industry lobby and the fossil fuel industry.

It's a credit to her, to act on her principles and not defend these shameful cuts. Making the very poorest pay is the very opposite of social justice and international solidarity which you would think are core values of the Labour Party.
