This is what the climate crisis looks like. Our beautiful homes, luxurious cars, and money has no value on a dead planet.

There is no time to wait. #ActOnClimate

❗ Rasistinen syrjintä on ihmisoikeusloukkaus.

#Hallitus sanoo olevansa sitoutunut puuttumaan syrjintään ja kitkemään rasismia, mutta käytännössä hallituksen politiikka kuitenkin syventää rakenteellista rasismia ja syrjintää. #antirasismi #ihmisoikeudet

Clear message from @vonderleyen: the whole new @EU_Commission college is committed to competitiveness! Majority of commissioners will focus on that. Interestingly too it will stay as #geopolitical commission with five (!) commissioners with external portfolio. #coherence

HAPPENING NOW: Bankers at @Citibank locked out as elders in rocking chairs shut down the entrance.

Citi is the world’s biggest funder of fossil fuel expansion.

There is no time to waste.

The nordic countries with a completely different result than Germany and France: Spectacular electoral gains for green and radical-left parties (MP overtakes SD in Sweden; F strongest party in Denmark, VAS number 2 in Finland), really weak results for the far-right.
