Armed conflicts devastate forests, destroy biodiversity, and uproot communities—often in the world’s most vulnerable regions. War costs us the Earth. Divest from war - Invest in the just transition!

“The company has no permit from us to build its lithium mine on our ground.” What the European Commission calls “Strategic projects” is an actual threat to people’s water, land and culture. We talked to a local activist in Galicia, Spain: friendsoftheearth.eu/news/galicia...

Ecuador must not pay Chevron ❌ For over 30 years, Ecuadorian communities have been fighting Chevron (formerly Texaco) for polluting and appropriating their land. On this Anti-Chevron Day, we stand together with our international community to demand justice for the victims of big polluters.

Again, Guterres dares to say what world leaders are ignoring: GDP as the only metric of progress is inadequate. Changing our accounting system is not sufficient to overhaul the current economic system, but it's a start. shorturl.at/FKQ5i

Because of the energy crisis, the EU Commission is urging Europeans to work from home, drive and fly less. These are not structural solutions. Our bills are increasing, while fossil fuel companies are making huge profits. Beyond growth policies & renewables are the only way to make Europe resilient!

How to break the never-ending cycle of capitalist accumulation/violence and organise production around socio-ecological priorities: - New financial architecture for public investments - Deliberative democracy to establish real people power - Corporate Reform Act to end corporate capture

We can move beyond the capitalist model and save the climate – here are the first three steps | Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis
Capitalism cares about our species’ prospects as much as a wolf cares about a lamb’s. But democratise our economy and a better world is within our grasp, say Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis

Economic growth is clearly not creating prosperity for all❗ To enable a just transition to wellbeing economy, we cannot afford to maintain current oligarchies forcing austerity on people. We demand a truly progressive tax for the redistribution of wealth within planetary boundaries ✊

Governments are ´cutting red tape´ which are environmental and social safeguards to protect people from pollution and corporate abuse. This short-sighted strategy of conservative and far-right politicians is jeopardizing public health and environmental quality. #RulesToProtect @eppgroup.bsky.social

New research shows that this summer’s heatwaves, droughts and floods in the EU have already inflicted around €43 billion in losses. Mid-term costs are projected to climb to around €126 billion by 2029. Meanwhile, the vote on the EU’s next climate milestone is postponed... shorturl.at/1TZKG

Apache mag eerstdaags een dagvaarding verwachten. Maar door meteen 5.000€ schadevergoeding te betalen en een passage te schrappen uit het artikel ‘Rassentheorie maakt school aan UGent’ zouden we een rechtszaak kunnen vermijden. Het is een ongeziene poging tot intimidatie. apache.be/2025/05/22/e...

Improve the EU's competitiveness? Transitioning to a circular economy could save the EU 600 billion euro annually in primary material costs by 2030. Additionally, it would cut costs associated with negative externalities - another 500 billion euro in annual savings. Source: shorturl.at/uXnTz

⚒️Another destructive mining project contesting for the "overriding public interest" label: A double lithium mine around Zinnwald, opposed fiercely on both sides of the Czech-German border. We call for demand reduction & protection of people and planet!👇 friendsoftheearth.eu/publication/...
People standing on a field, text "Two  multinational companies want to mine the same ore body on both sides of the German-Czech border; the cumulative effects remain disregarded. However, the people of the Ore mountains know: The bigger the mine, the greater the damage to health and the environment."
