Not MY Taxonomy

In July the EU parliament decides on whether gas and nuclear will become "green" investments. Join the movement and help ensure that this does not happen.

[Not MY Taxonomy @Not_My_Taxonomy]

The EU has voted to greenwash gas and nuclear 🚨
A thread 🧵

[Not MY Taxonomy @Not_My_Taxonomy]

See you in court @vonderleyen 😤

No greenwashing gas and nuclear 💥 #NotMyTaxonomy

[Greenpeace EU @GreenpeaceEU]

Ms @vonderLeyen, we'll see you in court.

Gas and nuclear are not 'green', and have no place on the #EUTaxonomy list of sustainable investments.

[Money For Change @moneyforchange_]

@EU_Commission rejects Greenpeace's request to stop the greenwashing of gas and nuclear. 8 Greenpeace organisations will start a lawsuit at the European Court of Justice against @vonderleyen’s decision to label gas and nuclear as green investments. https://t.co/iTOBg7E0oc

If all fossil fuels are not rapidly phased out, no amount of money will be able to cover the cost of the resulting #LossAndDamage. It's that simple. When your bathtub is overflowing you turn off the taps, you don’t wait a while and then go out and buy a bigger mop. #COP27

1/21.📜 It’s day ten of #COP27 and here is your #LossAndDamage focused thread for today. Today was a massive day for the #SantiagoNetwork for #LossAndDamage and continues to see crucial developments in the negotiations on #LossAndDamage finance.🧵

BREAKING:
I was just forcibly removed from a 🇷🇺 #COP27 event:
“#Russia is a terrorist state, you are genociding, torturing and killing us daily for 9 months. You are killing our #climate with your fossil fueled war on🇺🇦. You are war criminals and you must answer to a tribunal.”

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

Everyone should know @SvitlanaRomanko. No one without a gun has done more to stand up for Ukraine this year--she is as brave as they get. Good for her to get in the face of Russian 'diplomats.'

[Svitlana Romanko @SvitlanaRomanko]

I also said “your oil and gas is killing us”. And we all were shouting “Slava Ukraini”, “Heroyam Slava!”

“But then, I’m very much sure we will find a way for fossil fuels to be in our past. Fossil fuels will then be real fossils. Left in the ground, where they belong.” ⁦@SvitKrak⁩ ⁦@olliemilman⁩ https://t.co/lJMxnsbHjm

Is @JohnKerry a Climate Envoy or Gas Envoy? https://t.co/pPhovk1oOy

Eventually the tactics of the climate movement will need to shift from disruption of everyday normalcy (which has its place) to disruption of capital accumulation, and specifically fossil capital accumulation, in order to more directly target the problem.

"We want to #RebuildUkraine green with investment that must be diverted from the fossil fuel industry. Not only to #Ukraine but also to all other countries that are suffering from #climatechange right now and desperately need money for mitigation" says @SvitlanaRomanko at #COP27

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

”Global Witness found more than 600 people at the talks in Egypt are linked to fossil fuels.
That's more than the combined delegations from the 10 most climate-impacted countries.”

🔴BREAKING

Over 600 #FossilFuel lobbyists have been granted access to the #COP27 climate talks – that’s 25% more than last year.

The UN needs to kick big polluters out if it's serious about delivering #ClimateAction.

For anyone at #COP27 listening to EU pledges, remember they define their nuclear and gas as sustainable (like cakes donuts and ice cream as salads!)
#ClimateCrisis #electricity #renewableenergy

[Javier Peña | Hope @hope_enpie]

La Unión Europea promoverá el consumo de Donuts y los considerará como "ensalada".

As the battle over including fossil gas and nuclear energy as “transitional” investments in the EU sustainable finance taxonomy continues, I spoke to @Luisamneubauer and @DominikaLasota1 about why they think both energy sources should be kept out

At #COP27 I met US Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources, Geoffrey R. Pyatt today.
I asked him for 🇺🇸 to support efforts for a clean energy rebuilding of 🇺🇦,
and we’ll be following up!

[Not MY Taxonomy @Not_My_Taxonomy]

@Frank_Stones How much of that could be displaced by home insulation in a year do you think Francesco?

[Not MY Taxonomy @Not_My_Taxonomy]

Well that doesn't seem sustainable.

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Abolish billionaires.

[Not MY Taxonomy @Not_My_Taxonomy]

Very well timed as over 8GW of French nuclear is currently offline due to climate driven drought.
#NuclearEnergy #cop27egypt #drought #EUTaxonomy #EUGreenDeal

[Assaad Razzouk @AssaadRazzouk]

France just legislated that every parking lot for 80 cars or more must be covered by solar panels

That’s 11GW of new solar (same as 10 new nuclear reactors) powering millions of home - zero new land needed

Climate action is happening, just not at #COP27

Reaction to HLEG #netzero: We applaud the work of the United Nations High-Level Expert Group on Net Zero, who had the courage to set a clear standards in line with the science: net zero means no expansion of fossil fuels including no new gas or LNG 🧵#COP27
