It was great to join MPs from the The Climate APPG this week and see them push for greater ambition at #COP29 and #COP16 later this year

Great report on the inadequacy of the 'North Sea Transition Deal' with sound recommendations for an urgently needed new plan to actually transition away from oil and gas and unlock new opportunities for the area upliftuk.org/post/a-new-dea… Brook Dambacher Anna Carthy

Retweet with seething anger. March with determination. Donate with sickening guilt. Go to sleep with the deepest sadness ever known. This is breaking my brain, my heart, my will. What must it be doing to Palestinians?

Happy International Women’s Day

Hundreds of thousands of us are nauseated, sickened, angered & broken by what is happening in #RafahMassacre . Failed by all our governments & strutting politicians capable of nothing other than glutinous hypocrisy & poisonous double-standards. I really don't know where we go.

It's hard to breathe. I am checking my feed this morning as every morning, and the few Palestinian voices left are silent. What horrors happened during the night in Rafah under cover of superbowl, Joe Biden . What horrors.

Rafah is one of the most densely populated places on earth, teeming with children and families, some already displaced many times by war in Gaza.

Of the 1.3 million people seeking shelter, 600,000 are children.

They have nowhere safe to go.

They must be protected.

No ceasefire order. But the ICJ has ruled that South Africa's case is legitimate, that claims of genocide are plausible, and that Israel must stop killing Palestinian civilians and punish officials who have incited genocide. This is a real blow to the Israeli regime.

United Kingdom - End of Mission Statement - crackdown on #EnvironmentalDefenders

In light of the extremely worrying information I received while in London on 10-12 January, I’m releasing today a statement highlighting these concerns.

Full statement here: unece.org/sites/default/…

“Hamza was not a part of me, he was all of me. He was the soul of my soul.”

This is not a war. This is a genocide.

Post about Palestine like your life depends on it, because their lives depends on it.

Don't stop talking about Gaza. Push for a permanent ceasefire.

BREAKING: The International Court of Justice announces a public hearing on January 11th-12th for South Africa’s case filed against Israel over genocide in Gaza.

A historic moment for Palestine... And all of humanity.

🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

It is disgraceful that European states, which claim to value human rights, have failed to intervene in any way whatsoever to stop the war crimes, massacres and mass starvation being perpetrated by the ruling classes of the United States and Israel. Disgraceful.

Warmest wishes to everyone celebrating Christmas 🎄

In Bethlehem, Christmas is cancelled in solidarity with their Palestinian brothers & sisters being killed in Gaza.

Please remember Gaza this festive period & support calls for an immediate ceasefire & an end to the occupation.

I have no words of my own that could even come close to conveying what I have just seen and we have all just witnessed.

So I turn to the direct words of Ambassador Husam Zomlot, Husam Zomlot , Head of the Palestinian Mission to the UK. Listen carefully to his words:

“Israel media…

There can be no peace without justice. And there can be no climate justice without human rights.

Watch Climate Action Network International (CAN) Director Tasneem Essop 🇿🇦's powerful message to world leaders at #COP28 :

The UK gov decision to approve Rosebank is a bad deal for climate, cost of living, economic, energy security and marine / environmental reasons. The Tory government prolonging injustice for people and planet.
