TELL THE TRUTH
In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

The climate and ecological crisis is already with us.
We need immediate action to avoid unspeakable human suffering and irreversible damage to the natural world.

Let the capitalists, the patriarchy, and extractivism pay for the economic, political, ecological, and social crisis, not the Pachamama or our lives.

We will not allow the price of this multi-crisis to fall on our bodies and territories, nor will we allow the violence and oppression of women and nature to continue to be the norm. #XRWarmi

In a context of economic, political, ecological, and social crisis, we refuse to remain silent in the face of the violence that surrounds us. In response, #XRWarmi in #Bolivia decided to act through collective learning, through art, prioritizing self-care and feminist self-defense.

Scientists for XR @scientistsforxr.earth · 2d

Silencing scientists who sound the alarm won’t stop glaciers from melting, droughts from deepening, or crops from failing. That’s not controversial: it’s physics.

Historique : alors que la COP30 et les dix ans de l'Accord de Paris sur le climat approchent, dix scientifiques passeront en procès en France et en Allemagne cette semaine pour avoir alerté sur la crisé écologie en cours !

Une scientifique en blouse blanche portant une pancarte « Climate crisis = Health Crisis. Scientist Rebellion » encadrée par quatre policiers allemands en uniforme portant la mention « polizei ».

Une douzaine de scientifiques en blouse blanche tenant une banderole « Dire la vérité n'est pas un crime » et des drapeaux Extinction Rebellion dans une salle du Muséum national d'histoire naturelle, devant plusieurs squelettes dont un de mammouth.

💚As an individual we hold so much power.
As a collective we are even stronger.

Think about who benefits from keeping us isolated and silent.

In times of atrocity, destruction and genocide, the courage to act to disrupt, to resist, to disobey is a right and moral responsibility to many.

🌍🔥 When fascists lie, truth dies – and we must act.

Donald Trump stood before the UN – in front of the entire world – and rambled about the climate crisis as if it didn’t exist. A speech of pure denial, at a time when the planet is burning, seas are rising, and people are losing their homes.

While UK Labour today flirts with expanding North Sea oil & gas, Uruguay shows that with political will, you can ditch fossil fuels fast.

#IPCC's 2023 Synthesis Report shows that continued #GHG emissions will lead to increasing #globalwarming.

Every increment of warming will intensify multiple & concurrent hazards.

Deep, rapid & sustained reductions in emissions would lead to a slowdown in #globalwarming.

The Dear Leader strikes again, lecturing the UN about how climate change is a ‘con.’ Funny how the only con we see is the one behind the podium pretending science is optional.

✊🏿🌍♥️ Market workers and students on the frontlines of injustice across Africa are uniting to #DrawTheLine.

Green Cycle Evolution Foundation engagement with women market workers in Nima, Ghana, on the effect of illegal mining and advocacy on environmental protection through a mural painting for Draw the Line.

A Draw the Line event by Climate Clock was held at Cimbumbiro, near Bukavu city, Democratic Republic of Congo. The event aimed to educate local sellers about the provision of charcoal derived from fossil fuels and the felling of trees in Kahuzi-Biega park. Participants were encouraged to adopt renewable energy sources and ecological charcoal for household and daily activities. The initiative hopes to engage several local women in the use of renewable energy.

Last year UK billionaires’ wealth grew by £35 million every day, while ordinary people struggle to get by - and the planet burns.

In #London, groups joined protests across the world to #DrawTheLine against corporate and billionaire greed.
