@wrkclasshistory He won't be the last if the government continues to ignore its land conflict problem and reward violence with impunity. https://t.co/cmP006XYrI

"Costa Rica is known for its peaceful outlook on the outside world. It has had no armed forces for more than 70 years. Yet it now risks stumbling into a rising tide of conflict...."

[Yale Environment 360 @YaleE360]

Costa Rica has won international acclaim for its efforts to revive its forests.

But that success is now jeopardized as conflicts emerge over the government’s failure to restore Indigenous lands.

As world leaders agreed at #COP27, we need significant changes at the World Bank and other MDBs to mobilize the funding needed to support the transition to net zero. We need to deploy every tool available to us to solve this crisis. (3/4)

Valuable thread on world's biggest survey of young people's views on the climate crisis. Nature, clean energy, and better agriculture top their list of solutions. Sure wish they were the ones drafting outcome text at #COP27

[UNDP Planet @UNDPplanet]

It’s often said world leaders at #COP27 should listen to young people’s voices on climate change.

But what do young people REALLY think about the climate crisis? Here’s a look at the world's largest and most comprehensive climate poll.

A short thread 🧵

[Leonardo DiCaprio @LeoDiCaprio]

Indigenous peoples safeguard 80% of our planet’s biodiversity & are keepers of traditional knowledge critical to preventing climate change & biodiversity loss. The @globalalliancet is ensuring Indigenous voices lead the climate fight.

So far, it seems that #COP27 is an even bigger failure than COP26:
💀 25% more fossil fuel lobbyists than COP26 - the largest delegate group
💀 best outcome might be avoiding backslide from COP26
💀 even weaker language on ending fossil fuel subsidies
💀 sponsored by Coca Cola

Representatives of the three countries, which represent 52% of the world's tropical rainforest, signed the joint statement at the talks in Indonesia ahead of the #G20, or Group of 20 industrialised nations.

🧵🚨For the duration #COP27 I’ll be doing something different here. This account will be a portal to the Egypt that is currently being covered up by some epic police-state-controlled/Coca-Cola-sponsored/Hill+Knowlton-spun greenwashing.

🚨NEW #LandGapReport: Over-reliance on land based carbon removals could negatively impact ecosystems, land rights and #FoodSecurity. A new land area equivalent to 50% of the world’s croplands would be needed for current government climate plans.

Another US election, another "Land doesn't vote, people do" style map showing the election results.

Indigenous women live on the front lines of climate change. They are also leaders in the climate movement.

This is why we're joining @landrightsnow's campaign #SheShouldMaketheNews, to tell the stories of indigenous women advancing #climatejustice.

@frightwigwam @labrador728 @trophymursky @FanSince09 And a massively nationalized race about control of the whole Senate and by extension whole govt agenda. Race for governor was against an even crazier/worse candidate than Oz.

It's one of the first stories I covered in 2006: https://t.co/1yzLoZxs6x and nothing has improved. Oil isn't that profitable for #Peru & the impact on people and fragile ecosystems is devastating. There's a #ClimateEmergency - isn't it time for @MinemPeru to #Keepitintheground?

[Dyjuan Tatro @DyjuanTatro]

There’s a lag time, but look how CNN and MSNBC then follow Fox’s fear mongering. While crime reporting is disconnected from actual crime rates, how media conspires to manufacture consent is interconnected. What’s happening on Fox News affects us all, not just it’s viewers.
