Climate litigation had a momentous year in 2023.

Courts worldwide heard evidence and arguments at pivotal trials and hearings. Landmark rulings marked progress in holding governments accountable.

With climate lawsuits now totaling nearly 2,500 worldwide, it is clear that courts have become a critical venue for seeking climate justice and accountability. #ClimateChange

Politicians who delay climate action should be prepared to live with the human fallout of their choices, the World Health Organisations top environment expert has warned - as #ClimateChange threatens to roll back decades of progress in human health https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/04/politicians-who-delay-climate-action-must-live-with-consequences-says-who-expert #COP28

Half of the world's 2,000 biggest listed companies have set a target to get to net-zero emissions by the middle of the century, but just a fraction meet tough United Nations guidelines for what constitutes a quality pledge, a report has shown. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2023/11/06/companies/un-climate-goals-companies/?utm_content=bufferb5d4a&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #business #companies #climatechange #emissions #environment

Just 4% of top firms meet U.N. climate target guidelines, study says

The pace of change among governments and corporations is set to form a central part of the COP28 climate talks starting later this month.

This is quite a shocking report in the news today on how climate and environmental scientists are restricted in communicating their science in the Australian public service.

Gagged and grief-stricken, but not without hope

The beauty and wonder of the natural world is what keeps scientists like Dana Bergstrom fighting to protect it. She's one of many who say speaking out comes at a cost  but not speaking up can take an even greater personal toll.

Police detain climate activist Greta Thunberg at London protest

“The world is drowning in fossil fuels. Our hopes and dreams and lives are being washed away by a flood of greenwashing and lies,” Thunberg told reporters before she was detained. “It has been clear for decades that the fossil fuel industries were well aware of the consequences of their business models, and yet they have done nothing.”

“We cannot let this continue. The elite of the oil and money conference, they have no intention of transition,” she added. “We have no other option but to put our bodies outside this conference and to physically disrupt. And we have to do that every time, we have to continue showing them that they are not going to get away with this.”

Simon Armitage: Poet laureate on 'life-changing' visit to the Arctic

Simon Armitage says poets can convey climate change in a way that scientists and journalists can't.

I didn’t realise that Matilda was #australia’s answer to Greta but I do now. All these new laws to stifle protest that the state governments have introduced show the power of the fine hand of the fossil fuel lobby.

Why Australia’s answer to Greta Thunberg is facing years behind bars

At 19, this climate activist is now facing serious legal consequences over a foiled protest outside the home of the boss of an energy giant in Western Australia. Here's why she still believes she's on the right side of history.

"More than 60,000 protesters gathered in the Swiss capital #Bern on Saturday demanding tougher policies to combat #ClimateChange, organisers said, less than a month ahead of a national election.

Such large protests are rare in #Switzerland and show growing public frustration with the pace of policy-making to combat #GlobalWarming despite ample evidence of its impact."

Developing countries have demanded new financial help from wealthy nations in their uphill fight against the climate crisis, during a summit in New York at which U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said they had "every right to be angry." https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/09/21/world/politics/poor-nations-angry-on-climate-un-chief/?utm_content=buffer7744c&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #worldnews #politics #climatechange #un #antonioguterres

Poor nations have 'every right to be angry' on climate: Guterres

Climate action: Group of young people take 32 countries to court over human rights

A group of six young people, aged 11 to 25, are taking 32 countries in Europe to court about climate change. They say that their human rights are not being looked after by the governments, because of how they are dealing with climate change.

Globally we produce A LOT of #energy, but did you know the majority of fossil energy gets wasted? In the US alone, two-thirds of that energy is *wasted* as heat.

As Hannah Ritchie has pointed out, we don’t actually need to produce a low carbon equivalent of all of the coal, oil & gas we currently use.

That means we can decarbonize quickly by being less wasteful & more efficient. #ClimateChange #science

"Trying to [fight] climate change through supply side actions against fossil fuels is largely futile. Halting new pipelines, cutting-up credit cards from banks that lend to the fossil fuel industry, and board shakeups at oil companies are actions more akin to religious incantation."

Science shows #ClimateChange 🌡️ is causing adverse impact on humans and these will get worse.

Droughts 🥵, Floods 🌊, Storms 🌪️ heatwaves ♨️ and wildfires 🔥 are all getting more intense and more frequent

Time to go #NetZero as soon as possible.

I wish I didn't have to tell you about this again, but I do. It's not being reported much in the news — and you know why?

Because it's not 'new' (the origin of the word 'news'), it's old. This has been going on for months now, and corporate news outlets are simply tired of reporting it. But it is still happening.

Canada's boreal forests are burning up.

At least 1100 fires are active, more than 700 out of control. Over 13 million hectares have been burned so far, with no end in sight. It's an unprecedented climate and environmental disaster.

In defence of the status quo, we are made to belief that asking for richer public space, safety for our children or a higher quality of live is 'Radical Activism'. 🌳🚲

You are not a radical. They are! 🚩
