The Lake Victoria tragedy is a reminder that burning fossil fuels results in seas rising. Scientists predict some islands will be completely submerged by 2050. Stop putting profits over people & climate. !

The Scottish Government has failed to take the action needed to meet our climate targets.

Instead of ditching them, it needs to bring in the policies we need to tackle the climate crisis and improve the lives of people in Scotland.

Powerful speech from Joy Reyes from the Philippines 🔥

Renaging on our climate commitments is a betrayal of the people who are already suffering the impacts of climate breakdown.

Two facts:
1⃣ Local authority pensions invest £16 BILLION+ in fossil fuels
2⃣ There's just over a week to go until the local elections

Can you ask your councillor candidates to call for their pension fund to divest from climate-wrecking fossil fuels?

We're joining Fossil Free Parliament to get as many MPs as possible to support a new Bill to ban oily money from our politics.

How can we expect elected politicians to stand up and if they're taking donations and other benefits from fossil fuel companies?

I’ve just asked my MP to take action against the fossil fuel industry’s dangerous political influence by signing an Early Day Motion about fossil fuel donations and Fossil Free Parliament’s pledge.

Can you take 2 mins to do the same?actionnetwork.org/letters/urgent…

Alongside supporting the Bill, we’re asking MPs to sign the pledge - to reject all offers of benefits from the fossil fuel industry.

Has your MP signed? Find out here and use the above tool to write to them if they haven’t..!

'any decision by Scottish ministers to re-write Scotland’s climate rulebook is an acute global embarrassment.

'It would also be the direct and damaging consequence of the Scottish Government’s own dilly dallying on climate action.'

Just 57 oil, gas, coal and cement producers are directly linked to 80% of global CO2 emissions since the 2016. This is EXACTLY why we need governments to act, hold businesses accountable and move us away from planet-wrecking fossil fuels.
