The most polluters are less exposed to climate impacts, many poor communities are at risk, the issue of fairness&equity must be questioned, we need to listen to climate science! @ FBOs climate dialogue, mobilizing for UN climate conference #COP25 in Spain @lutheranworld @SAYCCC1

The need to keep global warming well below 1.5°C is very crucial to save our planet earth and protect the environment, the natural and human systems as well as the future of current and unborn generation. https://t.co/VM0fmGj2jA

Good news! @BarbaraCreecy_ Minister of @environmentza has rejected plans for a new coal mine after community and environmental groups appealed against the Department of Mineral Resources' decision to go ahead with the dirty development https://t.co/QcbhkHfsNo #ThursdayMotivation

There are no excuses left to be a denier, delayer, contrarian or even indifferent to the climate & ecological emergency.

We must make our governments #ActNow.

We need #EverybodyNow:

No matter how uncomfortable and unprofitable that may be.

We must change almost everything in our current societies.

The bigger your carbon footprint – the bigger your moral duty.

The bigger your platform – the bigger your responsibility. https://t.co/obzB7gZo2Y

It’s not that fossil fuel companies didn’t know the truth about the #ClimateCrisis. They just didn’t want you to know. https://t.co/UVJgmo7f4z

[ClimateRealityAfrica @AfricaCRP]

At the @UN Climate Summit @akin_adesina announced that
@AfDB_Group is getting out of coal – & we want that in writing. We call for a policy saying AfDB will not fund, provide financial services, or capacity support to any coal project in Africa https://t.co/NAlsOsdG03 #DearAfDB

Urban #ClimateAction benefits both the environment and people’s #health.
Case in point: Green parks 🏞 can serve as rain water collectors and provide space for people to exercise and socialise 🚶🚴
