"Environmental destruction in parts of the Amazon is so complete that swathes of the rainforest have reached tipping point and might never be able to recover, a major study carried out by scientists and Indigenous organisations has found."

"Australia has sweltered through its hottest spring and November on record, with both the season and the month more than 2C warmer than the long-term average."

"Europe’s biggest banks/.../provided £24bn to oil and gas companies that are expanding production less than a year since pledging to target net zero carbon emissions"

"Extreme heat in the world’s oceans passed the “point of no return” in 2014 and has become the new normal, according to research."

"To stay on track for global heating of no more than 1.5C, the carbon footprint of the richest 10% of Europeans must be ten times smaller by 2030, and that of the richest 1% 30 times less than now." twitter.com/Oxfam/status/1…

We appreciate the effort, but we in #FridaysForFuture don’t wish to be linked to anything commercial.
Nor do we wish to gain from overconsumption.
The climate- and ecological crisis will only worsen by encouraging people to buy things they don’t need.

"The EU's greenhouse gas emissions in the last quarter of 2021 were higher than any quarter since late 2018, scrubbing out the apparent gains made during the pandemic."
Yet, the EU still somehow identifies itself as a "climate leader".

"We must redefine our way of life and consumption."
This may seem radical, but it's nothing new. It has been stated in reports many times before.
This thread explains the leaked IPCC working group 2 document and puts into context. twitter.com/KHayhoe/status…

"For the umpteenth time the rich club has failed to deliver on its promise to channel $100bn a year to poor nations coping with a heating climate."
"The world's richest democracies have responded with a plan to make a plan."

”As the planet warms, the Arctic treeline is accelerating towards the pole, turning the white landscape to green. The trees used to creep forward a few centimetres every year; now they are leaping north at a rate of 40 to 50 metres a year.”

"Idag på samernas nationaldag vill vi med denna text uttrycka vårt stöd för Sápmi. Att det Svenska skogsbruket skulle vara klimatanpassat och rättvist är som Samebyarna uttrycker det, mycket riktigt en bluff."

You say that you listen to us young people. You say that you care.
Now you must prove it.
The only morally right thing to do is to #WithdrawTheCAP and you know that. How do you wish to be remembered?

Preliminary data show that the 2020 7% emission decrease is erased by a slightly weaker carbon land sink.
This is almost impossible to grasp... twitter.com/Peters_Glen/st…

"The International Energy Agency reckons that about 70m tonnes of methane were leaked into the atmosphere in 2020, roughly equivalent to the annual energy-related CO2 emissions of the EU."
Natural gas? Call it what it is: Fossil gas.

Older people need to make sacrifices to protect the future, says @TimmermansEU vice-president of the EU commission.
It's hopeful when politicians are slowly starting to speak more realistic about the climate crisis.

. @EUparliament @EU_Commission we count on you to stand your ground during tonight’s #RED trilogue.
Biomass burning is harmful to the climate, environment and human rights. In this existential crisis, we cannot afford the EU to further fuel the flames. #StopFakeRenewables

"We must shift focus from mid-century net-zero targets to immediate, real emissions reductions in our own high-income countries. Reductions of at least 10% per year are needed."

As CO2 emissions stay in the atmosphere up to 1000years we of course need to look at historic emissions and in context to population and emissions per capita. And developed nation must lead so others can raise their living standards. As I say all the time.

Inequality and climate injustice is already the heart of the climate crisis. If people can’t be vaccinated and travel to be represented equally that’s undemocratic and would worsen the problem.
Vaccine nationalism won’t solve the pandemic. Global problems need global solutions.->
