We have assessed 25 years of evidence and almost everything up until this point has failed.”

More and more evidence shows that carbon offsets aren't lowering emissions — despite #BigPolluters claiming otherwise.

Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says

Analysis of 25 years of evidence shows most schemes are poor quality and fail to lower emissions

For #justtransition and #climatejustice, we need non-debt creating funding that frontline communities and workers receive directly and use to meet their needs and aspirations for move livable, just environments. To advance self-determination, funding will look different across different groups.

We will not let the FRLD become an empty shell. Global North governments must #PayUp their Climate Debt and #FillTheFund now! Anything less is outright theft from communities already paying with their homes, livelihoods, and lives for a crisis they did not cause.

FrLD exists because of decades of inaction, denial, and failure to deliver climate finance obligations while across the Global South peoples drown in floods, reel from super typhoons, starve through droughts, all while those most responsible bankroll bombs, fossil expansion, and support genocide.

Researchers quietly planned a test to dim sunlight. They wanted to ‘avoid scaring’ the public.

US President Donald Trump has called the climate crisis "the greatest con job ever perpetrated".

That’s not just wrong – it’s dangerous. When world leaders deny reality, they give cover to polluters who get richer while we pay the price.

End their control now: bit.ly/4pERJSa
