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

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.

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.
https://heated.world/p/oil-executives-just-accidentally
#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.

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?

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.

Documents shed light on the earliest-known instance of #ClimateScience funded by the #FossilFuel industry, adding to growing understanding of #BigOil ’s knowledge of #ClimateChange . Fossil fuel industry sponsored climate science in 1954.
February 1, 2024, Rebecca John
Excerpt: "Unknown until now, however, is the fact that Keeling’s earliest research into carbon dioxide across the western U.S. was funded in part by the fossil fuel industry via a private foundation — and that in 1954 this foundation was informed of the potential impact of manmade carbon dioxide emissions on both the climate and human civilization.
"Newly discovered documents affirm that the #automobile and #petroleum industries funded early climate science #Keeling conducted at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) between 1954 and 1956. Records show that 'oil and auto companies' sponsored the scientist’s research via an organization called the Southern California Air Pollution Foundation, formed in 1953 to tackle Los Angeles’s infamous smog. American Motors, #Chrysler, #Ford, and #GeneralMotors were among 18 automotive companies that gave money to the foundation.
"A 1959 internal U.S. Public Health Service memo also identifies the #AmericanPetroleumInstitute ( #API ) and the #WesternOilAndGasAssociation — the oldest petroleum trade association in the U.S., which is now known as the #WesternStatesPetroleumAssociation — as 'major contributors to the funds of the Air Pollution Foundation.' Its Board of Trustees included top-level representatives from the Southern California Gas Company, the Southern California Edison Co., Chrysler, General Motors, and Union Oil (now #Chevron).
"And from mid-1955, these trustees were also appraised of research projects by a seven-man 'technical advisory committee,' which included a senior official from API as well as scientists from the Richfield Oil Corporation (now #BP ) and #Chrysler.
"With the discovery of these Air Pollution Foundation documents, it is now possible to date the earliest sponsorship of climate science by the fossil fuel industry to 1954, approximately a quarter of a century before Exxon’s internal research program of the late 1970s. These new documents provide important evidence that the fossil fuel industry has been intricately connected to climate science from its earliest beginnings — not only as a driver of the greenhouse effect behind climate change, but also as a contributor to the scientific discoveries that would transform our understanding of humanity’s relationship with the Earth and its atmosphere.

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!

I found about this rally from the #MaineDSA mailing list! #DSA and #EnvironmentalGroups working together!!!
#PortlandME and #LewistonME - August 27, 2026
No Immunity for #BigOil Rallies!
"While making record profits, Big Oil and their allies in Congress are trying to get off the hook from paying for damages caused by their pollution by passing sweeping immunity legislation to protect their #corporate interests. Let's be clear: if you make a mess, you clean it up. #Maine taxpayers have been stuck paying for climate damages with no support from the corporations that caused the problem, and that isn't right.
"Join NRCM and our coalition partners on Thursday, August 27th in Portland and/or Lewiston to tell Maine's Congressional delegation to oppose Immunity for Big Oil and Make Polluters Pay for the damages they've caused in Maine.
Portland
When: 12 PM
Where: Lobsterman Park, 1 Temple Street
What: Rally followed by a march to deliver letters to the offices of Sen. Collins, Sen. King, and Rep. Pingree. Bring your signs, your voice, and your energy!
Lewiston
When: 4 PM
Where: Dufresne Plaza, 72 Lisbon Street, Lewiston
What: Rally followed by a march to deliver letters to Sen. Collins and Rep. Golden. Bring your signs, your voice, and your energy!

The report #OilCompanies are worried about: #ClimateAttribution science
New report says our ability to tie weather damages to #ClimateChange is improving.
John Timmer – Jul 17, 2026
Excerpt: "Climate change is being driven largely by the greenhouse gases we’ve pumped into the atmosphere, which trap more of the Sun’s energy there. That added energy increases the odds of extreme events: longer, more intense heat waves and droughts, interspersed with excessive precipitation. But these sorts of events have happened in the past—how can we tell if any given weather disaster has been made more likely by the climate?
"It’s a question with implications for everything from building codes to disaster preparedness. And there’s some good news: According to a report released by the US National Academies of Science on Thursday, the field of climate attribution is growing increasingly mature and can answer some questions for us with far greater confidence than it could just a decade ago. The report also notes that there are still important limits and suggests steps to address them.
"Overall, this makes it clear that climate attribution is normal, mainstream science. And the #FossilFuel industry views that as a problem, as it could make it easier to hold companies liable for damages. This has triggered a backlash that has Republicans in Congress and state governments threatening the National Academies’ funding."

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."

Trump Administration Orders Restart of Pipeline Tied to Major California Oil Spill
Environmental groups warn using the Defense Production Act to revive the system sets a “radically dangerous precedent.” -
“Devastating”: #Trump #EPA to Scrap Landmark #Climate Finding in Pro-#FossilFuel #Deregulatory Push
#DemocracyNow, February 11, 2026
"In a victory for the fossil fuel industry, a set of Obama-era rules that required the federal government to regulate the emissions of six #GreenhouseGases is being reversed by the Trump administration. The changes would undo the legal basis of the fight against global warming, as well as remove #industrial reporting obligations and roll back #emissions standards for cars and trucks. Environmental engineer Gretchen Goldman helped author those emission standards while working for the Department of Transportation under the Biden administration. Now as the president of the #UnionOfConcernedScientists, she says their repeal will not only increase what drivers pay at the pump but also set U.S. innovation back on the world stage. 'We’re really seeing the abdication of U.S. leadership on climate, and that has huge implications, both for our immediate ability to reduce heat-trapping emissions globally … but also in terms of our standing and contribution in the world.'
