We are already feeling the impacts of the climate emergency, with record-breaking storms, floods, droughts and fires. Yet, lobbyists for #bigpolluters continue to participate in climate talks & decision-making processes.
Here's an overview of CEO's climate reports from last year:

1️⃣ The outcome of COP26 spells disaster for people and the planet, in particular for the global South. Rejected by the climate justice movement, the final text mirrors the agenda of rich developed countries and their oil and gas industries.

2️⃣ At least 503 fossil fuel lobbyists, affiliated with some of the world's biggest polluting oil and gas giants, have been granted access to #COP26 , flooding the Glasgow conference with corporate influence.

3️⃣ Here you can see our video diaries, and get to know all about the toxic tours that are taking place at the COP and in the streets of Glasgow, the events going on in the People's Summit as well as at COP26, and some interviews with activists.

4️⃣ Some of the worst financiers of the worst polluters helped write the script at #COP26 - and more, they will implement the decisions after the summit in Glasgow.

5️⃣ Over two-thirds of man-made greenhouse gas emissions come from the fossil fuel industry, and its capture of our political systems is a major obstacle to tackling this crisis.

6️⃣ How Big Polluters used “net zero” to block meaningful action at #COP26

7️⃣ To avoid wrecking the climate Europe needs to make massive cuts in gas usage. But dirty energy companies are still lobbying to push taxpayer subsidies for fossil gas projects. Friendly MEPs echoing their cause are helping to delay a real climate action.

8️⃣ In Italy, France, Portugal and the Spanish State, €8.3 billion of EU recovery funds were spent on hydrogen and renewable gases, thanks to fierce industry lobbying at national and EU level.

9️⃣ How Big Polluters are advancing a “net zero” climate agenda to delay, deceive, and deny.

1️⃣0️⃣ Imagine a company wanting to frack for gas in your neighbourhood. Your community opposes the plan and the government demands an environmental impact assessment. But then the company sues your country for interfering with its profits.

1️⃣1️⃣ @KadriSimson proposed ending EU funding for fossil gas infrastructure. The European Investment Bank did the same. However, the gas industry has a powerful tool to stop this happening: the climate-wrecking Energy Charter Treaty.
