Environmental Human Rights Defenders (EHRDs) in the steel sector face profound physical risks residing in "sacrifice zones"—areas where contamination, systemic violence, and corporate impunity endanger predominantly marginalized populations with disproportionate impacts on women.
We call on the mexican authorities to search and find Samuel Cardona, environmental activist and lawyer of Monterrey, México.

🧵From 2019 to 2022, approximately 4,558,600 hectares (45,586 km²) of the Amazon rainforest were destroyed according to Prodes, Brazil's official satellite monitoring system.
• Main drivers: The destruction peaked in 2021 and remained high through 2022, primarily driven by cattle ranching, illegal mining, and the weakening of environmental enforcement agencies.

"#ArcelorMittal continues to operate in #Liberia and across multiple countries with a clear pattern of human‑rights abuses, labor violations, preventable deaths, environmental destruction, and corporate impunity.
For years, workers, families, and entire communities have endured unsafe conditions, intimidation, displacement, and long‑term harm while governments and international institutions fail to enforce accountability.
This petition demands justice, transparency, and immediate corrective action from all responsible actors."

Civil society warns that government's gas procurement plans could undermine South Africa's Just Energy Transition and lock the country into costly fossil fuels.

🧵 @BankTrack and the #FairSteelCoalition are calling on banks to temporarily suspend finance to ArcelorMittal until the company has worked with communities to provide remedy and implemented safeguards to prevent future adverse impacts from occurring.
“Despite multiple warnings and interventions to the banks financing ArcelorMittal, the situation in Liberia remains dire for communities who have had their homes, crops, and livelihoods destroyed by #ArcelorMittal.
Enough is enough, it’s time for banks to start living up to their human rights commitments.” - John Nimly Brownell, Green Advocates of Liberia.
