Women in Hoima are learning their rights — and they are ready to use them.
@NectGreenCode brought together oil-affected community members for a Community Rights Training on #EACOP and Tilenga impacts.
Because informed communities are powerful communities
#environmentaljustice
Communities affected by #EACOP & Tilenga deserve to know their rights.
Last week, @NectGreenCode held a Community Rights Training i equipping oil-affected women, youth & indigenous members with legal knowledge to fight back.
Knowledge is power. Justice is the goal.
Africa's highest court is about to hear something historic. For the first time, we're arguing that the climate crisis is a violation of African people's rights and that polluters must be held accountable under African law. Add your name: https://t.co/XEQO9vMcfs
On this #WorldWildlifeDay, together with our partners under @IGENEastAfrica, we call on @NFAUG to evict all encroachers from Bugoma Forest and restore it as a habitat for chimpanzees.
Bugoma is a critical ecosystem that supports biodiversity, protects livelihoods, and safeguards the future of our wildlife. Protecting it is not optional — it is urgent.
Let’s act now to defend our forests and the species that depend on them. 🌳🐒 @AfiegoUg@NGCug1@ugwildlife@YGCUganda #ProtectBugoma #WildlifeConservation #SaveOurForests
Together with our partners, we engaged the Ministry of Lands to fast-track the operationalisation of the National Land Policy (2013). This presents a critical opportunity to address inadequate compensation, forced displacement, gender inequality in land ownership etc @awdf01
Grateful to @WildWeStand for this powerful conversation on community empowerment, sustainable agriculture, and climate justice in Uganda.

🌍 Climate Finance as Reparations, Not Debt!
Communities in the Global South are bearing the brunt of a crisis they did not create.
💰 Climate finance must be delivered as grants and reparations, not loans.

⚡ Renewable Energy = Future Power ⚡
Solar – Free energy from the sun
Wind – Breezes into electricity
Hydro – Flowing water, flowing power
Biomass – Waste into energy, not pollution
At NECT GREEN CODE, we build a clean, green, sustainable tomorrow. 💚
#RenewableEnergy
Air pollution threatens our health & planet. 🌍
✅ Reduce vehicle emissions: walk, bike, or use public transport
✅ Support renewable energy
✅ Stop burning waste & fossil fuels
Small actions, big impact. #CleanAir#ActNow#Sustainability#GlobalWarming#ClimateActionNow
No doubt fossil fuels are fueling climate crisis,genocides,plastic pollution.
No more business as usual,documenting what's right but act contrary.

"Fossil fuels are fueling destruction: displacing communities, harming wildlife & driving climate catastrophe. 🌎💔 Time to shift gears! Why not invest in renewables? 🌞💚 Let's power a sustainable future, not a climate crisis! #AfricanClimateSummit#RenewableEnergy
NO to single-use plastics, recycle responsibly & embrace eco-friendly alternatives. Together, we can protect our future! 💚 #EndPlasticPollution#SustainableLiving
Picnics should leave memories not plastics .
Dumping waste in forests destroys wildlife, soils, & our future.
Take your trash back — protect nature .

For Africa, Adaptation is Non-negotiable
Adaptation means justice. The Global North has a historic responsibility for the crisis, yet Africa faces the harshest impacts.
To secure a just and resilient future, experts suggest these key guiding principles:
✅ Social Justice & Equity
✅ Women, youth & marginalised groups must be included
✅ The Global North must acknowledge its role and increase support
✅ True resilience requires transforming unjust structures and mindsets
✅ Countries must double adaptation finance
✅ Support community-led solutions, land rights, & traditional knowledge
✅ Sustainable, people-centred policies are key to resilience
✅ Proactive, systemic change is needed, not just incremental fixes
✅ A fair low-carbon transition must include adaptation efforts
✅ The world must recognise and address Africa’s distinct adaptation needs.

#DYK: By switching to a reusable water bottle, you can prevent 167 single-use bottles from ending up in landfills every year.
This week, let’s commit to:
♻Reducing single-use plastics
💧Staying hydrated sustainably
🌱Protecting our planet, one refill at a time
Together, we can make every sip count for the Earth.
#BeatPlasticPollution #ClimateAction #Sustainability
Balancing planet over profits without a binding legal instrument is too hard since plastic recycling is too expensive than processing virgin plastics.
That's the reason behind failed recycling♻️commitments
We demand #StopFossilFuelsSubsidies let's get #United4ClimateJustice
