War is devastating lives and fossil fuel dependence is sending the bill worldwide through higher energy, food and transport costs.
#Fossilflation is what happens when governments protect oil and gas profits instead of people.
Let’s break free and power our future with renewables.

When oil sets the price -
The 60-day deadline for the US and Iran to reach a deal to end the war expires today, with no agreement in sight.
But the only firm commitment made has been to OIL.
Every day we depend on fossil fuels is another day we pay for crises we did not cause.
Time to tax fossil fuel profits, shift to renewables and stop #fossilflation.

The war on Iran is killing civilians, driving a global energy and cost of living crisis, and unleashing environmental devastation.
Fossil fuel dependence lets oil, gas and Big Ag giants turn war‑fuelled chaos into windfall profits and higher bills for people everywhere.

Pay Baby Pay: Why Trump’s energy and AI dominance agenda means higher bills for everyone

We’re not just in a cost of living crisis.
We’re living through fossilflation, where oil and gas drive up energy, food and housing costs while fossil fuel companies rake in billions.
The way out is clear: cut fossil fuel dependence fast and invest in renewables and real protections for people.

Fossil fuels are LITERALLY making everyday life more EXPENSIVE.
If 2026 were a book about war and rising bills, the word “fossilflation” would have to be on the title.
Inflation tells you prices rose, but fossilflation tells you why, and who is really cashing in.

Checked my horoscope, checked the bank account. It was #fossilflation the whole time 🔮 Gas prices spike with every war, gas hides inside everything you buy, and half the profits go to the richest 1%. Mercury isn't in retrograde, fossil gas is just bad energy.

World Cup 2026: Who really wins in a world of war, fossilflation and inequality?
If people are to win, it is time to change the game.
-
World Cup 2026 unfolded behind visa bans and dynamic pricing, as fossil fuel and industrial agriculture corporations cashed in on the war on Iran and energy shock while ordinary people faced higher bills and shrinking democracy.
Who’s really winning in a world of war, fossilflation and inequality?

Now you’re paying the price for a war you didn’t start. We analysed how seven EU countries responded to the war on Iran. Governments chose short‑term fossil fuel subsidies and fuel tax cuts that mostly help wealthy households and big corporations – not families struggling to pay rent or buy groceries. We need measures that protect people from #fossilflation, not policies that bail out a broken system. #MakePollutersPay
-
'Super' El Niño and the war on Iran are a double shock to our food system: Big Ag’s fertiliser- and fossil-fuel-heavy model turns every climate hit and shipping disruption into higher grocery bills for millions.
This isn’t random inflation, it’s a crisis built on dependence.
-
The more we depend on fossil fuels, the more people will keep paying for crises they didn’t create ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
What we’re seeing now is fossilflation: a world addicted to oil and gas where wars and shipping disruptions don’t just kill people, they show up in your household budget.
Ordinary people pay, while fossil fuel giants and their billionaire friends cash in.
The only way out is to end fossil fuel dependence and build homegrown renewable energy that can’t be bombed or blockaded.

Fiji:
"Rising vegetable prices, increasing transport costs and shrinking profits are placing significant pressure on Lautoka market vendors.
One of the major challenges is the high cost of purchasing produce from farmers, driven largely by transport and fuel expenses."

The US–Israel war on Iran is driving up fuel, food and transport costs, exposing how dangerously dependent we still are on oil and gas.
Here are six radical, practical ideas to protect people from the Iran energy shock and finally break that dependence 👇

Fossilflation«: Preisschocks zerstören Volkswirtschaften weltweit
Zentralbanken warnen, der IWF rechnet mit Rezession: Das fossile Energiesystem wird zum Risikofaktor – und treibt Millionen in die Armut.

@jwildeboer
they say we have twice as many renewables since the last gas crisis but that is just for electricity… keeping the current direction, this round of #fossilflation will be a whole different matter I am afraid -

Countries that are not decarbonising to #NetZero as fast as possible are taking the route that is longer but worse.
-
Pretty much this:
«Reaching net zero would cost about £4bn a year, the CCC found, or close to £100bn by 2050, which was roughly equivalent to the energy-related costs of the fossil fuel shocks that followed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.»

Given the gravity of the situation, the latest episode of @TransitionShow came out very fast. What does losing 20 Mb/d of #oil and similarly of #gas mean? “We’re in deep uncharted territory.”

Weil gerade Energiepreiskrise & #Fossilflation...
Im Klima-Sachstandsbericht #AAR2 haben wir nicht nur auf die hohen Risiken für 🇦🇹 durch die Folgen der #Erderhitzung hingewiesen, sondern auch auf die gesellschaftlichen & wirtschaftlichen Folgen der fossilen #Abhängigkeit.

Dan Yergin has the big interview in today's NZZ https://www.nzz.ch/wirtschaft/energieguru-daniel-yergin-ich-habe-die-diskussion-satt-eine-energiewende-in-25-jahren-oder-weniger-ist-unwahrscheinlich-ld.1819617
Lots to say, but just as much: "energy independence" isn't about quantities, it's about prices. And they are now, if anything, more closely linked than before. https://gwagner.com/heatmap-fossilflation/

Banner headline: hardly anyone cares about climate change.
Top two areas of concern: inflation & migration.
Key driver for each: fossil energy & effects of climate change.

WRONG. Inflation has little to do with (below-inflation) wage rises. The real causes: #fossilflation supply chain shocks, the profit-price spiral, have been left untackled. #ClimateChange #capitalism #corporategreed

Fossil fuel companies should not be profiteering off a global crisis – but they are: in the second quarter of 2022 alone, Canada’s top fossil fuel companies made $12 billion in excess profits, a three-fold increase compared to the same period last year. While ordinary Canadians struggle to put food on the table, cover rent and pay for basic necessities, Big Oil is raking it in, taking from your wallet and dumping it into rich shareholder pockets. This is #Fossilflation – and it’s a key driver of the cost-of-living crisis. Supporting Canadians with the soaring costs of living means a #WindfallTax on Big Oil's excessive profits. Join me in demanding the government immediately implement a Windfall Tax on greedy oil and gas companies to give back to Canadians and accelerate the shift away from fossil fuels >> https://act.gp/3RDDpXO
