๐Ÿšจ BREAKING ๐Ÿšจ

Right now we are targeting the Energy Department over Rosebank

Rosebank holds 300 million barrels of oil most of which would be exported overseas

It wonโ€™t lower energy bills or improve UK energy security

It will deepen the #climatecrisis

Kill Rosebank so we can live

What a US$ 345 million judgment means for Greenpeace - Greenpeace International A US court has just sided with fossil fuel pipeline giant Energy Transfer and ordered Greenpeace International and Greenpeace entities in the US to pay US$ 345 million.

So letโ€™s be clear: this type of corporate bullying is designed to rob us of our rights and freedoms.ย 

But we will not be silenced.

War is the biggest environmental crime on Earth.
Every bomb dropped poisons the air, the soil, and the water. Cities burn, ecosystems collapse, and generations inherit landscapes filled with toxins, rubble, and trauma. War doesnโ€™t only kill people. It destroys the living systems that sustain life itself.
In a time of climate and ecological emergency, escalating conflict is a direct assault on the planet and on our shared future.
Extinction Rebellion stands against war.
Extinction Rebellion stands against ecocide.
A livable world cannot be built on endless violence. Peace, justice, and ecological protection are inseparable.

The FBI is investigating #ExtinctionRebellion

A former member of #XRNYC was visited by the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force outside of New York City. This is not an isolated situation.
The administration has escalated to a new focus:
the climate movement.

Graphic shows three line graph time series of monthly carbon dioxide abundance in ppm (blue line), monthly methane abundance in ppb (red line), and monthly nitrous oxide in ppb (purple line). Graphs are all shown from January 1984 through December 2025/September 2025. Current levels of CO2 are 427 ppm. Current levels of methane are 1941 ppb. Current levels of nitrous oxide are 339 ppb. All graphs show long-term increasing trends along with some interannual variability and seasonality.

Canada has abandoned the 1.5 and 2 degree targets What does it mean to abandon something? It means to โ€œcease to support or look after (someone); desert,โ€ to โ€œgive up completely (a course of action, a practice, or a way of thinking)โ€ or to โ€œdiscontโ€ฆ

Yup, Canada has certainly abandoned 1.5 and 2 (I need to make a new version of this post with all the terrible stuff Carney has done since early Nov):

A man in a business suit in handcuffs representing the bankers jailed in Iceland after the 2009 financial crash.

Iceland did something after the 2008โ€“09 crash that the US, UK and EU pretend is impossible as Trump and his vile ilk ride rough shod over our democracies.

It confronted and punished its corrupt bankers and failed politicians.

And rebuilt a fairer society from the rubble. ๐Ÿงต

An exhausted oil rig worker

Fewer than 2 in 10 oil + gas workers are happy in their job.

Over 25% are actively job-hunting elsewhere.

Nearly half are ready to leave the industry entirely.
