  1. I remember many people (mostly white folks) telling me that I'm crazy & have no idea what I was talking about - when I told them that while Global North kept ignoring opportunities for shifting to more #SolarPower & more #WindEnergy to move away from #FossilFuels as part of longterm #EnergyProducing plans/infrastructure, China was going to kick global ass with their full investments on wind & solar #AlternativeEnergy. I said that in 1996.

    China became the world's leading installer of #photovoltaics in 2013. China surpassed Germany as the world's largest producer of photovoltaic energy in 2015 & became the first country to have over 100 GW of total installed photovoltaic capacity in 2017. As of 2024, Chinese firms are the industry leaders in almost all of the key parts of the solar industry supply chain, including polysilicon, silicon wafers, batteries & photovoltaic modules.

    #WindPower remained China's 3rd largest source of #electricity at the end of 2021, accounting for 7.5% of total power generation.
    China is forecast to have 1200 GW of combined #wind & #solar capacity by 2030 as part of the government's pledge to increase the share of non-fossil fuels in primary #energy consumption to around 25% by that year.

    Both wind & solar energy industries in China have created thousands of sustainable jobs as well. They have boosted the Chinese economy from within.

  2. 💰 UK banks have funnelled £75bn into fossil fuel projects since 2016. Time to align investments with climate commitments. #DivestFromFossilFuels #ClimateActionNow

  3. Did you know your pension fund could be fuelling the climate crisis? Many pension funds invest heavily in fossil fuel companies, driving environmental destruction while lining the pockets of multinational corporations. It’s time to demand accountability and push for sustainable, ethical investments that prioritise the planet over profit.

  8. It’s no surprise that big #polluting companies are not happy about annual #CarbonTax increases. But it is #unfair that #BritishColumbians must pay the full carbon tax when the #OilAndGas industry, whose production is responsible for more than one-quarter of #BritishColumbia #CarbonEmissions, gets a carbon #TaxBreak.

    The new system will also have a negative impact on B.C.’s carbon #TaxRevenues. In 2024-25, carbon tax revenues will be about $500 million lower than they would have been under the old system. This #RevenueLoss means fewer dollars to pay for #ClimateAction.

    These changes point to a #BCgovernment that is far too cosy with the oil and gas #industry. And they make no sense given the urgency of acting on #ClimateChange. #Disasters in 2021 alone caused between $11 billion and $16 billion in damage to the #BCeconomy.

    If B.C. really wants to be a #climate leader, the government must stop pandering to lobbying by the oil and gas industry that is causing climate change and act in the interests of all British Columbians

  14. Hey #UnionInvestment, verarschen können wir uns selber! Schmeißt Konzerne, die nicht konform zum Pariser #Klimaschutzabkommen handeln (selbst wenn sie davon sprechen es zu tun), konsequent aus den "nachhaltigen" (oder am besten allen) #Fonds raus.

  15. In a moment when we are deciding our legacy and our responsibility in the family of things, our impact depends on our willingness to transform.
    May we make history anew on the wings of compassion, justice and hope.
    For the leaders of our faith, for the investors of our resources, for the representatives of our congregations.
    We pray for bravery in the face of misinformation, manipulation and fear. #UUAGA #UUAGA23 #Divestment #DivestFromFossilFuels
