What is a 'self-made' billionaire? How is Rihanna self-made?
Who's sewing the underwear? Who's producing the make up? It's all Rihanna in those factories?
What about the minerals and clothe and dyes to make it? Rihanna got those too?
Remember: Fenty - Rihanna's Brand - was under scrutiny for using Mica (a mineral in India) that is mined using child labor.

IPCC will release their new climate report tomorrow, August 9, to shed light on our increasingly volatile climate.
They have been doing this for decades now, and the conclusion remains the same: we must act now. People all over the world are already being impacted, and still world leaders are acting like there is no emergency.
Listen to the science, listen to the people! Climate justice now!

5 things to watch for in the latest IPCC report on climate science
The latest report on climate science comes on the heels of heatwaves, wildfires, flooding and storms. It will help policy-makers act on plans to curb emissions or adapt to climate change.
TW: mention of suicide.
In 1904, Ota Benga was kidnapped from Congo, and taken to America and exhibited at the Bronx Zoo in the monkey house.
He suffered inhumane treatment and ended up committing suicide 12 years later.
This system that treats people of color like animals and leaves them behind and exploits them is the root of the system we see today that signals to Global North leaders that it's okay if MAPA is being hit by the climate crisis already, it's okay if carbon capture plans they have displaces Indigenous Peoples, it's okay if renewable energy plans they have involve child labor in Global South countries. This is the system we fight against, the same profit-oriented racist system that brought us to the climate crisis cannot bring us out of it. We must fight for a world that leaves no one behind.

last week we posted this message:
Your daily reminder that the US has bombed somalia three times in the last two weeks.
Here is some more context behind it and why the fight for justice for people in Somalia is tied to our fight for climate justice.
The incident in somalia is a symptom of a whole greater issue: US imperialism!
Read here and here on why to tackle the climate crisis we have to adress our imperial past & present so as a result the fight for the people in somalia is the same fight against the same system that has led to the climate crisis and we need to fight this together because in the end there is no one single- issue fight - it is all interconnected.

To fix the climate crisis, we must face up to our imperial past
It’s time to join the dots between our overlapping crises of – and shared solutions to – environmental degradation, damaged health, racial oppression and gender injustice.
The IPCC Working Group 1 report released today is a grim reminder of the current situation of our climate. Here's a breakdown of the key findings of the report.

The @IPCC_CH Working Group 1 released a report today featuring the latest developments in climate science. Here's what you need to know from the report. #IPCC #ClimateReport yacap.org/2021/08/09/ipc…
"The climate crisis is rooted materially in the wasteful, profit-oriented overproduction that is characteristic of imperialism, as this in turn produces excessive amounts of greenhouse gases alongside the wanton exploitation of people and planet, particularly in the Global South. Imperialist powers such as the United States and China are among those responsible for current and future manifestations of the climate crisis, as these two countries are historically and currently the largest carbon emitters in the world, respectively.
Additionally, the US military-industrial complex, supporting hundreds of military bases and operations around the world, has been recognized as a key contributor to our climate emergency, with the US military being the single largest institutional consumer of hydrocarbons in the world."

Hi guys, how are you? We, from Projeto Ajuda Pantanal, would like to invite you to participate in the tweet that will take place on August 13th, Friday at 4 pm UTC!
I imagine if you're someone like me, who doesn't use Twitter much, you might be wondering "What the hell is a tweet?"
Calm calm, I'll explain. A tweet is nothing more than a shower of messages on a particular subject. These messages are also known as tweets.
Yes, that's right, the famous "Tweets". "It's ok, I already understand what a tweet is, but how can I participate in it??"
To participate is very simple, just write a tweet talking about the wetland, always emphasizing the donation site https://www.ajudapantanal.fund/en, and posting #AjudaPantanal. Ouu, you can choose a ready-made tweet from the sample tweets and just post it to your profile. Cool huh?
Now that you understand how it works, you can't not participate huh, hehe. We are counting on you!

Is it right to set up such an intergenerational climate time bomb? Carbon capture, carbon removal and net zero emissions are all ways of saying it is okay to keep burning fossil fuels and to keep polluting the atmosphere because we can take care of the problem. These are all false notions that allow the status quo but will not help in the short or long run.”

Cambodia: China’s ‘Belt and Road’ Dam is a Rights Disaster Indigenous and Ethnic Groups Coerced, Poorly Compensated
Mammoth hydroelectric dam in Cambodia financed by China. Tens of thousands in Indigenous and ethnic groups made worse off. Reservoir emitting greenhouse gas from decaying vegetation on same levels as fossil fuel generation plants.
People lost decade-old fruit trees, homes, fields, graves & religious shrines when their villages in #Cambodia’s Mekong River Basin were submerged.
Everything the rivers provided before the dam was built – food, water, an income from fishing – is gone.
