I cannot overstate the fear, panic & confusion that these Israeli maps are causing civilians in #Gaza, including my own staff.
People cannot run from place to place to try to escape Israel’s bombs, nor does international law expect them to.
What is being done is unconscionable.

"The 1.5-degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels.
Not reduce.
Not abate.
Phaseout."

1.5°C means no new fossil fuel projects. None. Anywhere in the world. Countries investing in new projects while they're here at #COP28 talking about meeting our climate targets is absurd!

Fossil fuel companies “are way better at capturing politicians than they are capturing emissions.” @AlGore
No time to wait. End Fossil Fuels. #ActOnClimate

Wait!? HSBC (UK's biggest funder of fossil fuels) is hosting an event to greenwash fast fashion brands like H&M (which make clothes out of oil) during #COP28 - and its being hosted at Goals House with Richard Curts?! #FrackingHell

We talked about how #FossilFuel cash cow now is plastic and oil based fibres such as polyester or any synthetic fibres @FossilFuelFash wwd.com/sustainability/busin…
Thank u @ale_moretti @VSinkevicius @LaurenceTubiana @paolamigliorini for together we will put an end to fast fashion wwd.com/sustainability/busin… @ecoage
‘I wasn’t the obvious choice’: meet the oil man tasked with saving the planet.
This interview says it all…. theguardian.com/environment/…

This is pretty accurate. As record wildfires and heatwaves tear through countries around the world, Shell announced quarterly profits of £3.9 BILLION.
Big Oil is profiting off climate destruction while fueling the fire.
No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

Fairly big news breaking right now is an announcement from me.
I’ll no longer be funding Just Stop Oil as I feel that more protest and disruption will just feed the new Tory culture war narrative; it can’t actually stop oil.
I believe that the only way to stop drilling in the North Sea now – science, logic and protest having failed- is by choosing a new government at the coming election. I will now instead switch my time, effort and funding to a new cause: @JustVote24.

All credit to the Guardian for running this front page, but it also highlights how difficult it is to get across the immensely complex nature of the crisis. The headline is record heat, but the story is what that means for food security, extreme weather, migration, geopolitics.

If what David Attenborough warns of here happens then you are going to watch your kids die. How can it be clearer? The world is asleep and your family is at risk. Disrupting a musical is NOTHING compared to what is coming. Listen to David Attenborough for fucks sake #LesMis

Today’s #NobelPeacePrize, awarded to Narges Mohammadi, is an important reminder that women's rights are facing a strong pushback, in Iran & elsewhere.
This Prize is a tribute to all the women fighting for their rights at the risk of their freedom, health & even their lives.

Temperatures in France soared as high as 35.8°C. It was the hottest temperature ever recorded in October in France. To reiterate - it was 35.8°C in France in OCTOBER!

So proud to have been a small part of this @Andrew_Morgan movie @BetoORourke
TEXAS, USA tells the story of the inspiring leaders and organizers who are challenging extremism and fighting for something better in our state—even against the greatest odds.

So good to see this kind of leadership and a reminder we also need the EU on @FossilFuelFash 🙏 Spain, IEA back Dutch call to phase out fossil fuel subsidies | Reuters reuters.com/business/environ…

Fashion waste is dumped in Africa. It not only causes pollution but fuels climate change, responsible for 8-10% of global emissions. Synthetic materials require an estimated 342 million barrels of oil every yr.
We have better solutions. Implement them.

So many reasons why Wopke Hoekstra is bad news and this is why I signed this. Will you sign too? Tell the EU: Don't put an oil man in charge - 350 act.350.org/sign/No-To-Hoeks…
We knew this all along and it’s nice it’s more and more “public”. @KPMG review spells end of Higg MSI - Apparel Insider @FossilFuelFash apparelinsider.com/kpmg-revi…
