Bravo to everyone who led with passion and inspiration to make this adoption happen!
Why is having an Advisory Opinion on climate change from the International Court of Justice such a big deal? A thread 🧵 #ICJAO4Climate
BREAKING: In a huge blow to the rule of law, the US Supreme Court today let stand Chevron's prosecution and 3-year detention of me after helping Indigenous peoples win the historic Amazon pollution case.
Gorsuch dissented: "Our Constitution does not tolerate what happened here."
Great article on the eve of the UN vote for an advisory opinion on climate change. 100+ countries have backed Vanuatu's plan to enlist the UN's top court in tackling climate change. If the resolution is adopted, this is the beginnings of a HUGE legal precedent for climate #ICJAO
Those claiming to be “climate leaders” are still approving coal mines and funding gas and oil projects.
We don’t have time for their hypocrisy. We need a
@fossiltreaty to hold them to account.

We are not done yet but today is a good day. Thanks for all of your work: New federal study to address threats to Rouge National Park and key portions of the Greenbelt removed by the Ontario government https://t.co/p282nm7aOK via @envirodefence#HandsofftheGreenbelt
Happy #WorldWaterDay! I am very thankful to live in the Great Lakes-St Lawrence watershed, the planet's largest freshwater ecosystem. Water is life-sustaining and today let's reflect on our individual & collective responsibilities to protect our waters. #WaterIsLife#GreatLakes
Today I spoke at the Press Conference in
@PressClubBXLEU about why the @fossiltreaty is both a climate tool and a peace tool. Now it is time for European governments to replace the #ECT with a climate protection treaty instead ➡️https://t.co/mXZxxxZjB6
Last week a bloc of Pacific nations committed to spearheading a global fossil fuel phase-out effort.
Watch this video from @Brianna_Fruean to hear about the landmark meeting in Port Vila & what it means for the global call for a #FossilFuelTreaty 🤝

Today a landmark suit filed in New Orleans federal court by Cancer Alley residents demands a full moratorium on any new petrochemical & related infrastructure, citing a “scandalous environmental and public health emergency" and land use policies that are "vestiges of slavery."
"For the first time in the IPCC’s history, a headline statement...declared that the world already has too many fossil fuels in production to limit global warming to the relatively safe level of 1.5° C. [This is] a very big deal."
My latest, for @MSNBC:

"Avoiding the worst-case scenarios is only possible if we stop the expansion of new oil, gas and coal," says @Tzeporah, as the @IPCC_CH issues its final warning of the decade. #IPCC https://t.co/dqiNOqwRIt
🌍The #IPCCReport released yesterday reinforced the need for a #FossilFuelTreaty: https://t.co/MyexdVd9mO
🇻🇺A block of 6 Pacific countries is already paving the way: https://t.co/K0p9WetKeU
🇪🇺This week, we are calling on #EUleaders to join them.

“These same banks—@Chase@Citi@BankofAmerica@WellsFargo—have been in the business of injustice for a very long time… Their business plan is a death sentence for our communities... They’re willing to mortgage our children’s lives.” @RevYearwood speaking truth ✊ #StopDirtyBanks
"Act now or it’s too late" that's the zest of the most important climate report. We must act now and the action is to phase out fossil fuels. https://t.co/6jzedpf09t
Today, after yesterday's #IPCC report, everything is back to normal – as always. We continue to ignore the climate crisis as if nothing happened. Our societies are still in denial, and those in power go on with their never ending quests to maximise profits. We cannot afford this.
Great #Budget2023 recommendations from @IISD_Energy:
-End fossil fuel subsidies
-Not another cent for, fossil gas, CCUS or fossil-hydrogen
-Transformative investments into 100% renewable electricity
-Scale up support for a just transition
Will @cafreeland listen?
