⚫️Seven years ago on this day, the #ParisAgreement on climate change was adopted.
Since then (and until December 2021) over 1000 land & #EnvironmentalDefenders from around the world have been murdered, our global data shows.
Here are their names.
More than 120 people were killed Tuesday as the worst floods in years battered DRC's capital Kinshasa following an all-night downpour. Major roads in the city of some 15 million people, were submerged for hours, & a key supply route was cut off. #ClimateCrisis

@vanessa_vash spells it out.👇🏾
"Environmentalists of all forms have the moral high ground. I have absolutely no doubt that in 100 years’ time they will be seen as the real heroes."
Powerful statement from @HelenPankhurst. We follow in the footsteps of giants. #CivilResistance. #COP27
