Indigenous communities have been protecting and managing forests for generations. Yet, they only receive 1% of climate mitigation funds. At #COP26, the Global Alliance of Territorial Communities (@AlianzaGlobalC) will ask for a fairer share of climate finance.

There is no viable solution to the climate crisis without forest and land management by Indigenous Peoples and local communities.

Today starts the first march of the #LutaPelaVida camp in Brazil's capital, Brasilia joined by thousands of #Indigenous people.
The #Amazon and #Pantanal are burning at record rates and these brave warriors are always ready to defend their homes and nature.

Straight from @POTUS' mouth.
It’s time for President Biden and Congress to put an end to the billions in direct federal subsidies propping up the fossil fuel industry.
Demand @POTUS make good on his campaign promise to end fossil fuel subsidies 👉👉 bit.ly/381DhO6

A peaceful and green future is impossible in the face of racist violence. To root out White Supremacy we must take a hard look at the history of racism, exploitation, colonialism, and warmongering against Asians, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders.

The second-most polluting company in the world should not be allowed to run million-dollar ad campaigns telling people it's good for the environment.
We're calling out @Chevron's greenwashing — are you in? bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Hey let's shut down the Chevron refinery to make way for jobs in growing industries, ones that don't poison us #ByeChevron @CBECal
Lindsey Allen retweeted
This is community sorrow. As long as refineries are allowed to operate next to our homes, schools, and oceans we'll continue to see spills like this.
We need our decision makers to commit to a #JustTransition off oil and gas - not in 10 years, but today.

So the whole “progressivism is bad” argument just doesn’t have any compelling evidence that I’ve seen.
When it comes to “Defund” & “Socialism” attacks, people need to realize these are racial resentment attacks. You’re not gonna make that go away. You can make it less effective.

There are swing seat Dem incumbents who cosponsored the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, etc and if I’m not mistaken every single one won re-election.
