💡#COP29 committed to a US$300bn climate goal. Almost ½ this sum could have been raised just last year by charging the 100 largest oil & gas companies a 20% surtax on their record profits. 💸

Europe is burning: wildfires are forcing families from their homes in Greece, Spain, and Portugal. And yet, extremist politicians are trying to kill the EU’s plan to slash emissions by 90% by 2040. Let’s send our leaders a clear message: No rollback on climate action!

Commission's proposal for the EU's next long-term budget leaves gaps in climate and nature.

We need #MFF with:
1️⃣Horizontal mainstreaming targets and earmarking for climate and nature
2️⃣Better implementation of the ‘Do No Significant Harm’ (DNSH) principle
3️⃣Finance for a socially just transition

🚨 🇬🇧 New from InfleunceMap: How major lobbying transparency gaps are enabling efforts to delay UK climate & energy policy.

This new analysis finds that the true advocacy picture on many climate policies is often obscured by lax reporting and disclosure regulations, leading to derailment and delay 👇
Climate and Energy Lobbying in the UK
**InfluenceMap’s analysis indicates that there is a major transparency gap between the climate lobbying taking place in the UK, and that which is disclosed by companies and the Government.**

Expensive, unreliable carbon credits instead of real, rapid emission cuts here in Europe? No thank you!

🛑 International offsets = weaker ambition, slower transition & loss of credibility

📉 Climate ambition must be matched by climate action. Without solid financing & policy follow-through, National Energy and Climate Plans will stay on paper.
