Ukrainian women at a Palestine protest questioning, why the same world that rushed to support Ukraine turned a blind eye towards Gaza?

Remember Just Stop Oil protestors were jailed for several years for joining a zoom meeting.

Farmers have warned Keir Starmer they will shut down the whole of the UK if they aren’t listened to. "If Tuesday doesn’t work then the Government will have picked a fight with the wrong group of people. Farmers have lots of vehicles and equipment and if they wanted they could…



So predictable from #climatedenier Trump. Its like a dinosaur voting for Meteorites....

Insane: as the world overheats, here is a #Climate denier in charge. Sickeningly stupid and cynical. But remember, American voters backed it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Feeling disheartened by #COP29? Want to help change things? 🚨We're looking for someone to lead our team of investigators to deliver impactful and credible investigations which help expose the power of the fossil fuel industry. 👉 Find out more: gwitness.org/4fr5a2H


#Exxonknew, #Shellknew, #Chevronknew; #BPknew; they all knew. And then denied the evidence and delayed action for decades whilst millions died..

"Major oil companies, including Shell and precursors to energy giants Chevron, ExxonMobil and BP, were alerted about the planet-warming effects of fossil fuels as early as 1954" writes @dharnanoor reporting on documents via @DeSmog theguardian.com/us-news/2024/n…

“Peace means nothing unless we divest from militarization and the fossil fuel economy. No climate justice with blood on our lands!” #DefundGenocide #COP29

Undercover cop Bob Lambert causes hundreds of thousands of pounds of damage and walks free, whilst peaceful protesters who attended a zoom call, get years in prison. #TwoTierJusticeSystem

New evidence has emerged to suggest that an undercover #spycops police officer set fire to a high street department store while posing as a committed animal rights activist, causing damage worth £340,000, a public inquiry has heard. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/n…

Once Upon A Time In LA ... Big Oil Told 70 Years Ago That Fossil Fuel Emission Could Impact 'Civilization' NEW Archival sources reveal story of early front group that went 'rogue' before being pressured back into line by California's oilmen latest ⬇️ desmog.com/2024/11/12/rev…


If you ever thought that Big Oil cared about climate change, or believed the #greenwashing & spin, then this is the day you realise they never cared about you or your kids, it was always profit over people and planet. They really don't give a damn. And they will fight all the way

We’re so fucked- Shell defeats landmark climate ruling ordering cut in carbon emissions theguardian.com/environment/20…



As predictable as a fox hosting a conference about eating chickens... #ClimateCrisis

Maybe he’s not the best person to be in charge of a conference about abandoning fossil fuels…

Another great piece of London-centric, arrogant, ignorant, neo-colonial, inherently racist trollop served up as journalism ...

The Daily Mail turns frothy-mouthed about how no one can say Yr Wyddfa and then misspells Snowdon. Lads, Snowden was the posh photographer that you liked. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…



Its not just tech bros who thrive on internet chaos & misinformation: its Big Oil, Big Tobacco, GM & pesticide industries. Most dirty industries have long weaponised the internet to sow doubt & spread fake news. One PR guy said the internet is the Wild West where anything goes

Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing. The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos. 1/ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…



Pity the adults voted for cheaper gas and deporting immigrants instead of a liveable planet and their kids' and grandkids' futures.. #ClimateCrisis #ElectionResults nytimes.com/interactive/20…


The biggest surprise is that there is no surprise. Its what you get when you put a petro-state in charge of climate negotiations #COP29 #ClimateCatastrophe

🚨BREAKING: COP29 CEO EXPOSED using climate summit to discuss new oil deals Our latest investigation exposes how Azerbaijan were willing to facilitate fossil fuel deals as part of a sponsorship package. 🌍💰 gwitness.org/4fhvXy6



There is a lot going on right now, but WTAF?

Prison for delivering a petition. This is the power of the fossil fuel industry,.
