What does climate change have to do with human rights?

A thread πŸ‘‡

States that are not doing all that they can on climate action are violating our human rights.

Wealthy countries are most responsible for the climate crisis. They must take faster action than others

So far, they are failing their duties.

We can have human rights, or we can have fossil fuels – we can’t have both.

Those supporting fossil fuel expansion are effectively arsonists.

Companies that advance fossil fuels are abusing human rights.

Not just zero emissions, but also zero human rights violations in the process.
