  1. The UN makes it official: 1.5°C will be breached

    Meanwhile, OPEC has no intention of turning off the taps. On the contrary: Its 2026 outlook projects oil demand continuing to rise to 124 million barrels a day by 2050, and calls for $17.7 trillion in oil investment between now and then.

    Money that should be spent on a rapid phase out of fossil fuels and preparation for the disasters we can no longer avoid

  2. Hot tip:

    You can be "committed to reducing Canada's emissions and achieving net-zero by 2050"

    ****** OR *******

    You can build another DEADLY pipeline for the #BigOil skunks

    But you can't do both

    This is the #MarkCarney government LYING to you about #ClimateChange.

    Again.

  9. To keep drilling, Big Oil needs permission to dump treated fracking wastewater into rivers and onto cropland. We don’t have to give it to them.

    #BigOil #oilIndustry #fracking #ecoTerrorism #Texas #PecosRiver #AtascosaRiver #ecocide #fossilFuel

    Sometime in the next few months, Texas is set to issue its first permits letting the oil industry pour treated fracking wastewater into rivers and onto cropland.

    Five applications are currently pending, covering more than 18 million gallons of wastewater per day, all bound for the Pecos and the Atascosa Rivers. The Texas environmental regulator is also actively working on the rules that would allow oilfield waste to be sprayed on cropland.

    It may sound crazy to dump treated fracking waste on land that is used to grow food, or into waterways connected to drinking water supplies. But last month, oil and gas industry representatives gathered before the state Senate to explain why they desperately need to do exactly this.

  14. If my understanding is correct, that's #Farage and #ReformUK , the party funded by #BigOil that blames #immigrants for all of the #UK 's economic and social woes, is now blaming #climate #Activists for exposing their (presumably now more robustly vetted) party officials' willingness to deceive the public, the taxman and the parliamentary oversight committee?

    Were the immigrants too busy for this stitch-up or are they resisting by proxy on this one Nigel?

    A couple of days ago he (Farage) was blaming the 'complainants' and now apparently it's eco terrorists or the 'radical left' as the Orange Shitgibbon likes to call any group or individual with a social conscience.

    The #journalistic community to be demonised by their rhetoric next perhaps?

  19. A quick check of the #UK #news reveals:

    1) Reform UK is run by devious bastards, bankrolled by equally devious #BigOil

    2) The Orange Shitgibbon is telling lies

    3) Labour backtracks on another environmental commitment

    4) Some hypocrite is criticising right wing policy via #xitter , #meta , #yt etc etc (only because of the reach it affords them)

    5) Some AI willy-measuring story involving billions of £/$ in profit

    I haven't looked yet, but am I warm? The fucking planet certainly is.

  29. The #PortlandME No Immunity for #BigOil rally was small, but powerful! We chanted and marched from #UselessSusanCollins office to #AngusKing 's office to #ChelliePingree 's office. Only Chellie committed to making Big Oil pay. I did NOT volunteer to go into Susan Collins' office, as I'm still on her shit-list. Met some good folks from #ThirdAct and #NRCM . It seems I was the only #MaineDSA member there, but that's okay -- a rally should have at least one card-carrying #Socialist! My hand-painted signs were a big hit. Someone asked if I hand painted #NoJobsOnADeadPlanet one. "Yup! No AI involved!" to which everyone laughed. I'm glad I went. I've been burnt out from protesting, so it was good to get my activist batteries recharged hanging out with good people!

  39. I will likely never own or drive a fossil-fueled car. Why? Not only cars are money-wasting machines and a pain in the ass to park, but also the private ownership of fossil-fueled cars is the biggest attributable source of carbon emissions.

    "Guardian analysis found that the eight listed oil producers made almost $93bn (£69bn) in the three months to the end of June – the first full financial quarter after the US-Israeli war on Iran triggered a surge in global oil prices to highs above $126 a barrel.

    The companies have used the biggest disruption of fossil fuel supplies in the market’s history to almost double their combined profits from just under $50bn in the same period last year, with campaigners warning that millions of households are left paying the price in higher bills and climate chaos.

    The data suggests the eight oil companies – Aramco, BP, Shell, Equinor, TotalEnergies, Eni, Chevron and ExxonMobil – made more than $700,000 of profit every minute over the spring quarter.

    While their market valuations were swelling by about $600bn to above $3tn, temperatures built towards a run of deadly heatwaves, all made more likely and more severe by burning fossil fuels.

    Carbon emissions from the world’s biggest fossil fuel firms were directly linked to fatal spells of hot weather for the first time by scientific analysis published last September. It found the emissions from any one of the 14 biggest companies were each enough to cause more than 50 heatwaves that would otherwise have been virtually impossible."

  40. At #Chevron’s Gates, Communities Demand #Justice and a #FossilFree Future

    #AntiChevron Day 2026 united communities fighting #extraction, #EnvironmentalRacism, and #corporate impunity across continents

    May 21, 2026 | Paul Paz y Miño

    "Nearly three decades after communities in the Ecuadorian Amazon first brought global attention to Chevron’s crimes, and 13 years after activists launched the first Anti-Chevron Day in 20 countries, the resistance continues. Chevron remains one of the most polluting companies on Earth – and one of the most determined to avoid accountability for it.

    Anti-Chevron Day

    "For the 13th year running, Anti-Chevron Day brought frontline leaders from across the globe to the shadow of Chevron’s #RichmondCA refinery, where communities gathered with anger, grief, music, ceremony, and determination to confront one of the world’s most destructive oil companies.

    "The gathering came just weeks after the historic First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels in Santa Marta, #Colombia, where Indigenous leaders and governments demanded an urgent and just transition away from the fossil fuel economy that continues to poison the territories and devastate the health of frontline communities worldwide. In Richmond, that demand felt immediate and deeply personal. It is being shaped by the people most directly harmed by extraction and pollution, and by movements building solidarity across borders.

    "Chevron must clean up its '#RainforestChernobyl' in the #EcuadorianAmazon!

    "For over three decades, Chevron chose profit over people. While drilling in the Ecuadorian Amazon from 1964 to 1990, it deliberately dumped more than 16 billion gallons of #ToxicWastewater, spilled roughly 17 million gallons of #CrudeOil, and left #HazardousWaste in hundreds of open pits dug out of the forest floor."

  41. RE: mastodon.social/@climatenewsno

    #deathtoll has now surpassed 1600, but hundreds are still unaccounted for across the region. According to the #UN, the disaster is one of the deadliest #weather patterns south and southeast #Asia has seen in years.

    While the clashing of three tropical weather systems, including Cyclones Ditwah and Senyar, was likely fuelled by climate change, environmentalists warn it is “rampant” deforestation that has compounded the tragedy. #climatechange #bigoil that's on you

  42. Boo hiss...! Jury Finds #Greenpeace at Fault, Awards #Pipeline Developer Hundreds of Millions

    By Mary Steurer, North Dakota Monitor, via #CensoredNews

    "Breaking news from the courtroom
    A Morton County jury on Wednesday ordered Greenpeace to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to the developer of the #DakotaAccessPipeline, finding that the #environmental group incited illegal
    behavior by anti-pipeline #protesters and defamed the company in the late 2010s.

    "During closing arguments on Monday, the lead attorney representing #EnergyTransfer told jurors that Greenpeace’s actions caused between $265 million and $340 million in damages to the company. He asked the jury to award Energy Transfer that amount plus additional punitive damages.

    "The nine-person jury delivered a verdict in favor of Energy Transfer on most counts. The verdict brought to a close a more than three-week trial in Mandan.

    "The jury began deliberating Monday afternoon after hearing testimony from dozens of witnesses, including current and former Greenpeace employees, #IndigenousActivists, Energy Transfer representatives and law enforcement.

    "This story will be updated.
