"Just to make it very clear: there is not any aid or food supplies delivered to [North #Gaza] since more than 1 month, except for some small medical supplies...we are talking about people who are living with nothing." @Oxfam's Mahmoud Alsaqqa @AJEnglish

We all have a choice to make: We can choose to give up in the face of a challenge, or we can choose to keep fighting.
We're can't-and we won't-back down from this fight. Here's how we're ready to put a stop to President-elect Trump's dangerous and divisive agenda⬇️
Yesterday, the world's 10 richest men got $64 billion dollars richer.
While the president-elect paints himself as an ally of workers, it's really billionaires & corporations that will benefit the most from his policies & working people will pay the price.

What is happening?!
Good question, X.
I'm out of here, not wanting to support this project and provide advertising income to its owner.
I'll get my information from Substack, LinkedIn and newspapers.
More shocking flood footage from Valencia.
Oh wait, it's Santa Marta, Colombia.
Or is it Halabja, Iraq?
Wrong again, it's Sukabumi, Indonesia.
All these cities faced extreme floods in the last 7 days. This gets worse until we stop burning oil and gas.
Hearing of @JozefSikela: "We will better utilize the Inequality Marker that helps ensuring that any development initiative contributes to reduce inequality in line with SDGs." We are looking forward to seeing the I-marker applied to all Global Gateway and ESFD+ projects
The policies of a Trump administration will deeply harm US and global climate action. But any predictions that this is ‘game over’ for the climate are wrong. The fight for #climate action in the US will continue at the Federal, state and local level. A few facts to keep in mind.
Together, with you, we’re prepared for a second Trump administration.
We’ve successfully fought back before and, together, we will do it again. We will not and cannot allow this administration to threaten our rights, democracy, or our path to a more equal future.
Today is a difficult day for justice and equality.
President-Elect Trump and his extreme agenda are the embodiment of inequality and pose extraordinary risks for so many of us.
But our future can still be equal, we just have to fight for it. 1/3

Rich countries say they mobilized nearly $116 billion in #climate finance in 2022.
However, according to @Oxfam, rich countries overstated the actual amount of financing provided by up to $88 billion due to most of it coming as loans.
