Our colleague Sabine Abi Aad from @actionaidAR speaks to @abcnews this morning about the crisis in #Lebanon. Due to a barrage of Israeli airstrikes, people in the Bekaa Valley & South Lebanon are fleeing, seeking shelter wherever they can, including schools which are all closed.
Today @alexandra_grsm spoke at the @MenaFem workshop on how #GlobalGateway energy investments are just another 🇪🇺neocolonial resource grab.
At a time when energy projects should be prioritising local needs & climate goals, the focus remains on corporate profit.
“The question is, will this be the year that the Global North significantly steps up its climate ambitions and takes responsibility for its historical actions? The time for action is long overdue.”

#ClimateFinance grants from the Global North for Global South countries are still tiny - they are being outstripped by subsidies going to climate destructive sectors more than 20x over!😡
And Global South renewable energy ��� is getting 40x less public finance than #FossilFuels😱
The corporate capture of public finance means that climate-destructive sectors are getting subsidies in the Global South that could pay for schooling for all sub-Saharan African children 3.5x over📚
#FundOurFuture
🚨NEW #HowTheFinanceFlows REPORT🚨
Climate-harming corporations are draining public finances in the Global South.
An average of $238 bn in Global South public subsidies go to the #IndustrialAgriculture sector & $439 bn to #FossilFuels EVERY YEAR.
