2/The interrelated crises of wealth inequality, racism, and the climate crisis, were in place long before COVID-19, and now are being intensified. 350.org/pacific-faces-… #G20
3/ Yet, #G20 countries have acted directly against the Paris Agreement by providing at least USD 77 billion/year for fossil fuel projects through their public finance institutions. priceofoil.org/2020/05/27/g20…
4/ They also control the unpayable and immoral ‘debt’ of the very countries who need the most help tackling COVID-19 and climate crisis, and whose people were enslaved and colonised without justice or reparations to date.
5/ #G20 shouldn’t use public $$ to bail out the failing systems that drive global inequality, racial injustice and climate crisis. It must put health before profits, and workers before rich CEOs 350.org/just-recovery/
6/This historic moment calls for a different response. #G20 may opt for ‘business as usual’ unless we demand better. It’s our money, our lives and our future at stake. We demand a #JustRecovery. Find out more here: 350.org/g20/
