🚨2025 NDC Synthesis Report is out!🚨

Our key takeaway is that the shortfall of the collective global emissions reduction and ecosystem protection is very grave.

Most striking thing is no surprise: EU's missing NDC. EU needs to get its house in order & support ambitious #COP30 outcome on all fronts.

At the UN Climate Summit today, many of Canada's allies will reaffirm & strengthen their commitment to climate action—but PM Carney will be notably absent.

Amid increasing uncertainty over this government's climate approach, we need to know: is Canada in, or out?

Happy 1st birthday to the #Draghi report! 🎂

In 12 months, we’ve seen:
📉 Lower climate ambition
🗑️ Scrapped safeguards & deregulation
🛑 Decarbonisation delays
💥 Dirty EU-US deals

So much for competitiveness through sustainability. Does not sound like the green industrial policy Draghi called for.

🔴 We’re marking our #RedLineforGaza. Even bigger, even louder. 🔴
In June, we took to the streets of Brussels with over 110,000 people to condemn Israel’s human rights violations in Gaza. But it wasn’t enough. Now we come even louder to say: it’s time not only to demand, but also to act!
