Fossil fuels were given over $7 TRILLION in subsidies last year: buff.ly/3P85KHU That's $19.2 billion per day,
$799 million per hour,
$13.3 million every minute.

The first step in addressing the problem is to stop funding it.

We must not replace one dirty, exploitative, extractive industry with another. The energy transition must be just and equitable. And it must start now.

Why on earth would Kirklees Council grant planning permission for three beautiful silver birch trees to be felled. On George Street Milnsbridge the trees are the only positive in an area of mess. A disgraceful area of constant burning and mess. A

Deadly storms that left Dubai under water and killed more than 20 people in Oman were likely made worse by climate change, scientists say.

Heat pumped into the atmosphere by humans made the record rainfall 10-40% heavier, they say.

Heartwrenching figures are everywhere, but this one truly floored us.

8 million people currently live in 3.7 million dangerous homes that are cold, in need of repair or have serious hazards ⚠️

Fixing our leaky, mouldy and life-endangering homes must be a top priority 🚨

We’ve joined over 250 civil society orgs opposing the inhumane Rwanda bill which will shortly become law.

Climate change forces more people to make dangerous journeys. Gov must provide safe passage for refugees, not undermine the courts on human rights drive.google.com/file/d/190Tg6V…
