Our forests, rivers, oceans and grasslands are in peril - worldwide, over 75% of nature is in bad shape. But this week @EP_Environment could vote for a law to #RestoreNature. MEPs: Without nature, there's no food, no water, no future - we need a strong Nature Restoration Law Image
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn the tide on the nature and biodiversity crises and put ecosystems on the path of recovery. @hildebentele @fritzon_h @emmawiesner @MichalWiezik @Frederiqueries @SincicMEP @toth_edina @ma_danzi and other ENVI MEPs: #RestoreNature
Conservative forces have even gone as far as to claim that repairing our damaged nature in the EU will jeopardise our renewable energy targets and undermine food production.

It’s total nonsense. 👇
We have just days to convince MEPs on the European Parliament Environment Committee to do the right thing and support this ambitious law to #RestoreNature.

Join the almost 600k people who have already added their name to the call 👇 avaaz.org/restorenature

On this #FairTaxWeek, we have a question: Why is @RishiSunak resisting the public call to #TaxTheRich?

Maybe it's because he and his wife are the wealthiest inhabitants of @10DowningStreet IN HISTORY & yet they somehow pay less tax % than the average doctor in London 🧵👇
Meanwhile, the UK economy is a shambles. Nearly 30% of children live in poverty & healthcare is a complete mess. But applying a 1-2% wealth tax on assets over £10 million, could raise up to £22 billion annually.
Let's tell the PM that it's not only morally right to #TaxTheRich, but it's also popular! Polls by @YouGov and @PatMillsUK show that: 78% of Brits approve of increasing taxes on the super-rich while the wealthiest support a net wealth tax on those with more than £10 million.

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

Ahead of Mark Zuckerberg's appearance in Congress, a new report by our anti-disinformation team shows exactly how Facebook failed American voters during one the most crucial election in decades.

The findings are terrifying... (1/8)

#InvestigateFacebook
First Finding:

10 BILLION Estimated Views: That’s the # of views on prominent pages sharing misinformation Facebook COULD have prevented if it listened to experts. It didn’t.

Why didn't the platform do more to protect voters? (2/8)

Congress: #InvestigateFacebook
Second Finding:

We uncovered 267 pages and groups that shared content glorifying violence. They amassed a following of 32 million, & celebrated violence against people of color & law enforcement.

Facebook's recommendation algorithm fueled them. Some are still online. (3/8)
