AND TODAY a new website has been launched by @theodettecase which documents all the internal evidence of exactly what Shell knew and when.

👉Head to https://t.co/q7ZF2cQ50G to discover Shell's hidden files.

BREAKING: Shell announces insane profits of £8.1BN in just the last 3 months.

Shell KNEW about climate breakdown for 60 YEARS and yet they HID the science.

That's why we brought a restaging of their 1960s offices right outside their global HQ.

It’s time we #ExposeShell !

How to defend the right to protest!

1️⃣ talk about how protest prevents politicians from rewiring the economy and society against us.

2️⃣ ‘climate protest is not a crime’ keeps a punitive frame. Also doesn’t resonate with ppl.

3️⃣ the backfire effect - there’s now MORE protest.

‘Pragmatism cannot negotiate with physics. More fossil fuels, when burned, mean more CO₂, higher global temperatures, greater climate impacts and increased risks of crossing dangerous tipping points. Political compromise cannot change that.’

[Kevin Anderson @KevinClimate]

Jackdaw: a decision for last century. https://t.co/Vd3FZR7F65

A hastily drafted post following the UK Govt’s decision to approve further drilling & production at the Jackdaw gas field in the N.Sea. Please excuse typos, non-sequiturs, etc - I wanted to get the post online today.

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

Jackdaw is a decision to accelerate the worsening climate crisis. Shame on Labour.

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

Another front page for our campaign!

In the wake of the climate denialist approval of Shell’s Jackdaw gas field, we’re pushing to stop Rosebank, an oil field with 7 times the climate damage to burn

Help us do it.

Labour accused of 'climate vandalism' after approving Jackdaw gas field

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

5 heat waves this summer. FIVE!

London boiling. Children too hot in their schools. Emergency services overrun.

And Burnham just says Burn’em?!

It’s climate denial. Keep it in the ground.

We’re outside the Department of Energy Security. Join us at 12 noon

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

This morning we were outside DESNZ and Miatta's offices and we'll be back TODAY at midday because we know if they can get away with Jackdaw without resistance they will do the same with the carbon bomb project - Rosebank

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

THIS MORNING the UK government announced they are approving Shell's Jackdaw gas field.

New oil & gas is a death sentence.

It is a decision to kill.

The people in Nepal know it.

The UK's 2,700 excess heat dead know it.

Shell kill and the UK government enables it.

[#StopRosebank @StopCambo]

BREAKING 🚨: The UK Government has just approved the Jackdaw gas field

We cannot let them open Rosebank

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

🚨BREAKING: Jackdaw has been APPROVED Emergency demo 📍 DESNZ, SW1A 2AW🕕 7.45 AM & 12PM, 21/10
Bring your anger. Bring your friends. Bring your voice.

Climate destruction is here and yet today the UK gov have backed deathly fossil fuels.
But there's still time to #StopRosebank

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

Probably fine to approve new oil and gas then. Jackdaw 👍
(🔥everything is fine🔥)

[Bill McGuire @ProfBillMcGuire]

"Nearly 1/3 of voters....would be less likely to vote Labour if it gives the go-ahead for more North Sea oil drilling"

"includes...1/3 of those who voted Labour [in 2024] and around half of 18 to 24y olds"

Environmentally ignorant AND politically inept

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

We think we will hear tomorrow that the Jackdaw gas field has been approved.

How short term is the memory of this government?

We’re reeling from heatwaves
Over 1000 wildfires in the UK from
Suffolk to Scotland

Are our lives and homes disposable?

Protest 7:45am & 12 DESNZ

Here's a reminder of what happened in the first half of this year. Easy to forget isn't it......

[Fiona Harvey @fionaharvey]

Insurance companies under pressure to downplay the risk from climate crisis - what could possibly go wrong? Rest assured, it’s you and your inability to get cover, or inability to get your claims honoured, who will suffer, not the big bosses doing this.

This is someones home in Istanbul, Turkey yesterday.

Yesterday’s record-breaking deluge in Istanbul was its heaviest in 41 years, dumping up to 242 mm (9.5 inches) of rain.

[Fossil Free London @fossilfreeLDN]

Remember that every country in the world could say that they need to produce as much oil and gas as they can use. If they all do this, we all die.

That’s what we need to hold in mind when Andy Burnham makes his announcement on Jackdaw

Keep it in the ground.
