🗿STATUE SUNDAY🗿
We have blindfolded statues all over the world after the shocking indifference that has received the latest @IPCC report. We are on a #ClimateEmergency and governments should act accordingly, instead of acting as if this is some nuisance.

The latest IPCC report summarises five years of studies on global temperature rises, fossil fuel emissions, and climate impacts. It warns that many parts of the planet will become unlivable, emphasising the shrinking window of opportunity to secure a sustainable future. (1/4)
The report acknowledges that limiting global warming to 2°C is critical. However, an overshoot of the 1.5°C target is likely in the 2030s. Despite these alarming findings, political leaders have yet to take sufficient action. (2/4)
Fossil fuel companies continue to expand operations to keep up with demand, outpacing the energy transition we urgently need. It is imperative that we shift our focus to reducing our energy consumption, prioritising equitable economic development over perpetual growth. (3/4)

The mayor of Bogotá @ClaudiaLopez intends to authorize the displacement of a remnant of the Muisca community residing in Tunjuelito, a southern district of the city, from their ancestral land. SR condemns this violation of rights & colonial state policy. 📷 @cej_juvenil (1/18) Image
The Muisca community of Tunjuelito is part of the Experimental Youth Center @cej_juvenil which is dedicated to the perpetuation of the Muisca culture and the protection of the Tunjo wetland complexes that are crucial biodiversity hotspots in the city. (2/18)
This expropriation is a danger for the preservation of the wetlands and the continuation of a violent marginalization of the Muisca which has been going on for 500+ years. @cej_juvenil represents a popular, communitarian, environmental and cultural root for the community. (3/18)

Scientist Rebellion founding action: UK Crown court jury finds co-founders Mike and Tim **Not Guilty** for their action at the @royalsociety! More on this news tomorrow.
#scienceontrial #ClimateEmergency Tim, dressed in a grey suit...
In September 2020, Scientist Rebellion co-founders Mike and Tim took non-violent direct action at the UK's most prominent scientific body: The Royal Society @royalsociety Image
The legal defense of "consent" was used - that given a true understanding of ecological breakdown and climate crisis, and the power of social movements and civil disobedience to bring rapid change, members of the Royal Society would consent to the non-violent direct action. #NVDA Image

Activists from SR Africa took action in different countries to demand climate action, specifically 1) to halt new oil & gas projects across the continent, 2) invest in clean energy systems, 3) pay up for losses in ecosystems & culture due to extractivism. ✊ #LossAndDamage (1/13)
This campaign happens in the midst of the development of major oil and gas projects in Africa, such as @EACOP_ and the Morroco-Nigeria pipeline. ☠️ (2/13)
The 'Morocco-Nigeria pipeline' is an extension of the West African Pipeline that would make it the world's longest offshore gas pipeline. It will cost about $25 billion dollars which could be invested in clean energy instead of fueling the #ClimateCrisis, (3/13)

Lützerath Unräumbar!

As a broad alliance we announce actions around the village of Lützerath, in Germany, because the coal under Lützerath must stay in the ground! We stand united behind the activists on site and fight side by side for climate justice worldwide.
Together we call for all activists to make their way to Lützerath to protect the village from eviction.

Every minute the excavator runs and coal is burned, the climate catastrophe continues to heat up. As the Lützerath Unräumbar alliance, we stand in the way of destruction!
We are groups from Fridays For Future to Last Generation to Alle Dörfer Bleiben. We call on everyone to become active with us for climate justice. Our name is program: with diverse actions of civil disobedience, we make Lützerath unräumbar.
