"The text as it now stands is disappointing. It is insufficient and not adequate to address the problem we are here to tackle. The science is clear: we need to phase out fossil fuels. We have to continue the conversation." #COP28

Hey @WBHoekstra if you really want to be a climate champion, stand with small island states and hold the line in negotiations. Only a full, fair phase out of fossil fuels at #Cop28 will do! #ClimateActionNow #ClimateJustice

I’ve just asked @TimmermansEU for no more empty promises. We need to phase out fossil fuels and provide loss and damaging financing at #COP27 now. #PhaseOutFossils With me? Take action! nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZxU5BzbEHP…

We cannot afford another year of inaction while our planet is heading towards total climate chaos. @ClimateEnvoy and @BasEickhout we need to phase out ALL fossil fuels now. #COP27 #PhaseOutFossils

When fossil fuel projects should be abandoned, @StandardBankZA is still considering being involved in EACOP. This is despite the human rights violations this project has been notorious for. #FinancingHumanRightsViolations #StopEACOP

Greetings on my 60th birthday. With your support, the epic triumph of Indigenous peoples over @Chevron is known by millions around the globe. Your support also has given me the strength and inner peace to endure years of house arrest and attacks by Chevron. How you can help:

I will be sentenced Oct. 1 by a judge who denied me a jury and read the newspaper during my trial.
While I'm on "trial" facing prison, Loretta Preska—my judge, jury and fact finder—has been casually reading the newspaper from the bench during witness testimony. It feels like it was over before it began.

Not every day you get to see a mural of yourself in Temple Bar 🤯 I’d like to thank everyone who took the time to write to me across the past week. It really means a lot ❤️ For now I’m going to chill out, support our Paralympian’s and practice my fencing in-front of this mural 😂

Ireland’s biggest fossil fuel company is @dccplc . They are a FTSE100 company. Last year they made £13.4 billion in revenue and £530.2 million in profit. 71% of the profit came from their fossil fuel businesses.

Exclusive: The Science Museum has signed a gagging clause in its agreement with Shell International to sponsor its climate change exhibition, agreeing to take care not to say anything that could damage the company’s reputation, Channel 4 News has learnt.

So incredibly grateful that Marianne Williamson is helping protest my 700th day of unjust house arrest after winning pollution case against @Chevron. Rally and vigil tonight at 6 p.m. in NYC with @SusanSarandon, @rogerwaters, Ron Kuby and others. 245 W 104 St. Solidarity. 💪❤️

New research finds a significant risk of domino effects in climate breakdown even at temps below 2C. Govts need to act much more quickly than they are doing. Put a declining cap on fossil fuels, and scale down production and consumption in rich nations. theguardian.com/environment/…

Day 671 of detention: incredibly honored to receive @RepMcGovern tonight in my home. Jim is the only member of Congress who has traveled to Ecuador to witness Chevron's atrocities firsthand. Jim said: "Chevron is a bully. It takes guts to stand up to a bully." #FreeDonziger

Still time to register for this event 👇👇👇 Lunch time talk on food sustainability ranging from #SustainableDiet to #FoodWaste to #ClimateJustice Very excited to both bring the @Evocco view and hear from @wearereuzi, @RozanneStevens and @VitaIreland
My lawyer Ron Kuby: "Make no mistake about it. We are not watching a 'trial' as that word is normally understood. We are watching a production, brought to you by @Chevron."
