We're connecting the dots, and all fingers point to the rogue fossil fuel
industry
Welcome back. It’s getting hot in here, isn't it?
People around the world are currently suffering from the impacts of
extreme heat waves that are supercharged by the climate crisis and causing
countries in Europe and North America to fight off wildfires that are raging
out of control, destroying homes, forests, and infrastructure. On the other
side of the globe, the worst floods and rains in over 100 years have
displaced millions.
Let us connect the dots and remember that the impacts of extreme
weather events like these are no accident – they are the result of corporate
greed and bad government policy. They are directly linked to the fossil fuel
industry.
The climate justice movement relies on you to make it stronger.
Through your involvement with a local group, contribution, or activity –
let's say, sharing an article, or signing a petition–we can create momentum,
build more people-powered moments, and tackle the climate crisis together.
With love,
Christine
In Case You Missed It
Living Through Climate Disaster
Communities in Canada, from B.C. to the Maritimes and the many places
in between, have not been spared from extreme floods, fires, and storms.
Living Through Climate Disaster provides space for those communities to tell
their stories about the impacts and how they want a better future and to
bring an end to delay in climate action.
One heartfelt story is from a mother recapping her experience through
the Heat Dome while pregnant to then having her child exposed to the smoke
from the wildfires. The truth is, we are living in a climate emergency. And
it’s up to all of us to demand bold action centered on climate justice from
our government, from our leaders.
Our stories are a powerful tool because we get to build community and
fight for change together!
One People. One Ocean. One Journey.
The people of the Pacific, under the International Court of Justice
Advisory Opinion alliance, called on world leaders to hear their cries for
climate justice and human rights. Along the coastlines, they gathered with a
unified voice and message to save their homes, their livelihoods, and the
most affected communities as the extreme climate impacts become more
frequent.
The endorsed Advisory Opinion will set sail, and they’re asking
international leaders to show that they value the rights of vulnerable
frontline communities everywhere. This is our fight, and it’s a fight to
protect the human rights of people worldwide. Why don’t you hop on board
their canoe and help fight the climate crisis? Learn more about their
voyage.
We are fighting to #UprootTheDMRE
On Mandela Day, the Climate Justice Coalition (CJC) – a South African
coalition pushing for an advanced transformative climate agenda, marched to
the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy to deliver an open letter to
the presidency. The letter demands that the president implement an emergency
renewable energy plan to tackle the energy and climate crisis.
The country is currently facing power outages and forcibly plunged
into darkness. It’s time for a system change, and the CJC knows it and
demands it under the banner of #UprootTheDMRE!
One to Watch
And that’s a WRAP!
It’s been a busy three months for the climate movement, as we saw
activists mobilise and take action targeting Annual General Meetings (AGMs).
In case you need a moving and energetic reminder of this intense
season of meetings, we have you covered. This video is wrapped in
mobilisations and campaigns covered from many corners of the globe, with
strong messages telling banks and finance institutions to STOP FUNDING THE
CLIMATE CRISIS.
Skill Up Your Activism
Looking for ways to amplify the climate movement?
We have just the right project filled with categories of inspiring
stories and lived experiences of the climate crisis.
The Climate Reality Project Philippines is joining a growing chorus of
voices asking “When” and demanding “Now” from world leaders meeting during
the 27th Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on
Climate Change (COP27) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
“When Is Now” features poems, visual art, murals, and more forms of
creative expression that reflect people’s lived experiences of the climate
crisis and the call for the developed world to address the vicious cycle of
loss and damage experienced by climate-vulnerable countries.
Use Your Power
Tell banks to STOP FUNDING destruction in Argentina
Fracking is dirty and dangerous, and right now, it’s destroying the
lives of communities in Vaca Muerta, a region in Patagonia, Argentina.
Though a new report has recorded twice as many environmental
incidents, we already know the only way to ensure that we eliminate these
and put people's livelihood first is to Keep It In The Ground.
That’s why there is a petition to STOP big international banks that
fund oil giants like YPF.
SIGN THE PETITION
