We reiterate our serious concern about ongoing violence in #LaGuajira, where UK registered company #Glencore is invested in the #Cerrejon mine.

Again, this highlights the urgent need for an effective UK law to hold businesses to account for human rights and supply chain abuses.

Les pub dans le métro pour des vols AR en avion à 25€ en Europe sont une preuve de plus que nous sommes encore très loin d’avoir pris la mesure de l’urgence écologique.

Par ex, un AR Paris-Seville c’est 600kg CO2eq, soit 30% de votre budget carbone annuel cible. Pour 25€.

The #ClimateCrisis imperils the wellbeing of children, youth and future generations. Join us TODAY with young people, faith leaders, UN officials and legal experts for a webinar to mark the second anniversary of the appeal for climate-responsible banking. This will be a chance to learn about how you can contribute to the push to urge financial service providers to take action on fossil fuel investments. This means action to align with what science says is needed for human survival. You can register for the event via the link below – I hope to see you all there.
