Coalition of 30+ student groups. Calling on universities to #DivestFromThePast and Invest in a #justrecovery. *defunct but dm for referral to active groups*

The Caribbean is facing climate crisis without sufficient resources to build safer futures. Our new report takes a reparative approach to the climate/fiscal crisis to understand the scope of the problems and some pathways to climate justice🧵https://t.co/1U817kY9Nr
As a result of past exploitation and ongoing extraction, the Caribbean is swamped with debt, eroded by tax abuse, and can't afford climate action.
Our new report puts numbers to this fiscal drain, and provides a policy path aimed at justice and repair: https://t.co/5nEM9DByLL

As I discuss with @mehdirhasan, this very strategic campaign fuses the movements for climate justice and Palestinian rights - and it's #BDS's biggest swing yet.
Happy #climateweek2024!

Tar sands companies aren't sharing ESG plans to shareholders "because of changes to the Competition Act"
The changes don't target any one industry -- yet other industries have no issues sharing their environmental targets
Why? Because they're not lying

The jasper widfires are gutting AND I'm begging #ableg to get past the "thoughts and prayers" phase of wildfire commentary and onto naming names and taking action.
Not linking this to climate change and fossil fuels IS politicizing tragedy.
Have a listen to this great piece. @Melissa_Lem & Mark Jaccard respond to Vancouver decision to reverse ban on use of "natural" gas in new homes, and debunk the arguments used to justify this awful decision.
