The richest 1% are responsible for the same quantity of planet-wrecking greenhouse gases as two-thirds of humanity.
These are not natural facts. They are the result of humanity’s choices.
We can, and must, decide to do things differently.

It snowed a couple of days ago in Switzerland, and in the coming days, it will reach 24 degrees C. This #weather, Topsy Turvy, is leading to all sorts of problems for nature. Animals and plants don't know what season it is anymore, and crops will also be stressed.
It was the hottest February ever recorded on earth. But at this point, no one is surprised. … well anyone who is half aware of the #climate crisis anyway. This is the new climate and we are just getting started.
Significant move by #COP29 host #Azerbaijan in appointing female Member of Parliament Nigar Arpadarai as new UN Climate Change High-Level Champion for this year’s UN Climate talks. Parliaments have finally arrived. #Accountability
Look forward to working with & supporting @ArpadaraiNigar in her new role. #ParliamentsMakeCOPSCount
