Food, Agriculture & Water took centre stage yesterday
#COP29
The BSOEC report does not only set out the woes of oil pollution but presents a comprehensive roadmap for environmental recovery in Bayelsa State and the restoration of our right to life and dignity. @NnimmoB@BSOECommission@SocialActionNg@FordFoundation@ERAFoEN1

Recently visited Durban's fisher folks 🎣🌊 and saw how oil giants' extractivism is destroying livelihoods. Oil spills are contaminating water, damaging fish quality, and threatening entire communities. 💔🐟 Climate change adds to the struggle, making fishing even harder. 🌍💧
In a time of economic crisis, Lagos State is tearing down homes, businesses, and schools. Thousands have been displaced, children are out of school, and the urban poor are being pushed further into hardship. THIS MUST STOP. @ceehopenigeria@oilwatchafrica1@CappaAfrica@NnimmoB
Yesterday, we joined a @FishnetAlliance workshop with fisherfolk from across Africa. Their message was clear: oil and gas are wrecking their communities and livelihoods.
It’s time to fight back!
One year after oil referendum, what’s next for Ecuador’s Yasuní National Park?
Viable alternatives to oil drilling in Yasuni can raise more than “the most optimistic scenario of oil revenues from the 43-ITT oil block.”

Discovery of oil and gas in Senegal (and other African countries) is destroying fisheries and threatening our food security, socioeconomic wellbeing and cultural lives.

"To stop fossil addiction, the first thing to do is depetrolize, not just decarbonize. We need to #Yasunize and #Ogonize the world following the Yasuni and Ogoni examples, calling for oil to be kept in the ground and kicking polluters out of our regions." - @NnimmoB#SOE
Calling all interested scholars to register for our next School of Ecology!
Join us to discuss dismantling fossil addiction and other false solutions, and bringing healing to an already traumatized world.
Sessions will be hybrid.
