East African court dismisses controversial oil pipeline case in setback to communities On Nov. 26, the East African Court of Justice (EACJ) dismissed an appeal filed by four African NGOs, marking the end of a landmark case against the construction of a contentious oil pipeline. The case...

Bakundane told Mongabay the judges never took into consideration the damage caused by EACOP. “They have been excavating everywhere, and the floods that are running from these cuttings are destroying our farmlands, destroying our water bodies.” #StopEACOP! news.mongabay.com/short-articl...

READ: "But a court's refusal to hear the truth doesn't change the truth.

EACOP still threatens millions of people. It still violates human rights obligations."

UK, Netherlands drop funding for TotalEnergies’ massacre-linked gas project The governments had been under pressure to ditch support for the scheme.

This is why we said, #EACJCourt ruling notwithstanding, the controversial #EACOP project, like the Mozambique LNG, remains risky. Those funding it, like South Africa's #StandardBank, must know they're complicit even if they pretend ignorance of the reality on the ground. #StopEACOP shorturl.at/nKtjN

Regional court dismisses EACOP Case, but the pipeline is still controversial — #StopEACOP Some of the EACOP Project-affected persons and members of civil society organizations from Uganda and Tanzania, outside the EACJ court.

#EACJ dismissed the #EACOP case on a technicality, refusing to hear the evidence of harm faced by impacted communities

This is a blow. But the land grabs, pollution risks, and human rights violations have not disappeared & our resistance doesn't end in courtrooms. Read our blog shorturl.at/C21fV

Yesterday, we called attention to the widening climate ambition, finance, & justice gaps blocking real climate progress!

We need to add the fossil fuel phase-out roadmap to the #COP30 agreement, now.

Yesterday, we joined @fossiladbansa.bsky.social and @powershiftafrica.bsky.social, among others & marched to #TotalEnergies' offices in JHB to express our frustration with their century of abuse. We're thankful for the litigation work @amisdelaterre.org & others are doing to make Total accountable.

China’s getting strong coverage at #COP30 for climate leadership. But regional reports say Chinese institutions may fund #EACOP after global banks avoided it over environment & human rights risks. That’s a real credibility test. Our partner in Belém calls on China to walk the talk. #StopEACOP!

Fossil fuels are the #1 reason COPs exist, and the #1 thing we need to get rid of in order to save countless lives and prevent the worst of climate disaster.

Now, for the first time, a real roadmap for transitioning away from oil and gas is gaining support at COP30!

Ugandan climate activists Patience and Hilda insist that polluters must pay. They cite a report by @oxfaminternational.bsky.social about how the richest 1% plunder & pollute the planet to the point of destruction, leaving humanity choking on extreme heat, floods & drought. #COP30 must deliver!

We ended week one of #COP30 with our members participating in the People’s March for Climate to demand urgent climate action & an end to fossil-fuel dependency. Sam Okulony (EGI-Uganda) called out major polluters, including #TotalEnergies, which is building the controversial #EACOP.

This was Alessandra Korap Munduruku this morning. She lives in the Brazilian state where COP is taking place this year! She was not given a pass into the Blue Zone.

These are the voices you should be listening to, boosting, and celebrating. Not the politicians who are attending #COP30!

Yesterday, @unclebrighton.bsky.social brought the voices of those on the frontlines of the #EACOP fight from Lake Albert to the Amazon. He reminded the world of the 12 activists still in jail for protesting Stanbic Bank Uganda's involvement in the controversial project. #StopEACOP!

Same thing at COP29. The Guardian reported Azerbaijan’s deputy energy minister & chief executive of COP29 was caught on film agreeing to facilitate oil deals at the negotiations. #COP30's supposed to be the implementation COP - how should we interpret their presence knowing their record? #StopEACOP!

In Belém, police repressed Indigenous delegations who were trying to enter the COP’s blue zone to present their demands. They wanted what is rightfully theirs: real participation, a voice, and a vote in the negotiations that decide the future of their territory.

If #COP30 is the COP of Truth, it must end fossil fuels. #StopEACOP activists will join Brazilian and international civil society in a powerful ritual and collective call for justice. We stand together to tell governments NO MORE HYPOCRISY. NO MORE FOSSIL FUELS!📍2:30-3pm Belém, Brazil

YouTube video by StopEACOP Campaign Beyond COP30: Why Building Movements and letting communities lead is key

Our Campaign Coordinator, Zaki Mamdoo, shares a solidarity message to partners in Belem and reminds us that the real work goes beyond #COP30 and negotiations. Real work is in our communities, building consciousness and agency. #StopEACOP youtu.be/r371YMsKKTU?... via @YouTube

The sun rises on open fields and wind turbines.

New climate pledges mean there will be escalating damage to all nations and the poor and vulnerable will be hardest hit. Every fraction of a degree of #GlobalHeating avoided reduces the risks, but much more needs to be done - soon.

Balach Bakundane of EACOP-host communities shared testimonies from his community members at the inaugural East African Future Generations Tribunal, as captured in this documentary 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbC4...

Every generation leaves something behind. Let ours be justice! #StopEACOP

In East Africa, climate change is real. We see it in prolonged droughts and flash floods, as well as the loss of farm animals, property, and extreme hunger. The ICJ Advisory Opinion opened the door & communities are walking through it.
Every generation leaves something behind. Let ours be justice!

25 young community leaders are participating in the inaugural East Africa Regional Tribunal, organized by the Future Generations Tribunal, documenting their lived experiences of climate harm in the region and transforming testimony into evidence and memory into mandate. #StopEACOP!

The #EACOP project's total cost has risen to $5.6 billion from the initial $3.5 billion. TotalEnergies is now forced to self-finance nearly 90% ($4.8 billion) because banks are avoiding this controversial project. Read our statement: static1.squarespace.com/static/5fc07...
