Burning fossil fuels – coal, oil and gas - emits carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere, leading to global climate change. This has huge impacts for all life on earth, especially those least responsible for the crisis!

Since 2015, 60 biggest banks have invested 3.8 trillion US dollars in fossil fuel.

Latest #MAPARecommends from one of our activists!

There is no climate justice without debt justice! Most climate finance / "aid" comes in loans and so MAPA countries often end up in debt and having to pay so much interest to Global North countries when trying to recover from the loss and damages and trying to adapt to the climate crisis the Global North countries caused!

Debt by David Graeber:

Written by an activist from Occupy Wall Street, and academician left disenfranchised by Yale University after this work — Graeber brilliantly traces the history of debt and the gift economy, down to the dark roots of money in war and sex. “Debt: the first 5,000 years” is a classical work of economic anthropology.
Update Afghanistan: We still need help! 🆘

It‘s urgent. We still have activists at high danger in Afghanistan, we need to evacuate as many people as far as possible and as safe as possible. We have also 23 people in Pakistan, we need to get them visas for safe countries. But we do not have enough money for further actions.

We produced a video with Greta and two activists in Pakistan, Kamila and Shamshad, explaining the situation. Please share the video, this message and donate here:

Climate change is already hitting Africa hard – from extreme weather events, to locust plagues, and failed harvests. But, international research and policy bodies, and ‘hot lists’ of influential climate scientists, rarely include African scientists. With United Nations climate talks set to take place in the United Kingdom in November, Selly Amutabi and Michael Kaloki ask whether African science can influence these critical international negotiations. We find out which climate scientists and activists the world should be watching, and why climate adaptation and mitigation depends on African science.

whilst striking, protesting and speaking up for your rights in a right, in many parts of the globe it is considered a priviledge.

there is no climate justice without debt justice.

global north countries have contributed the most to the climate crisis whilst global south countries are bearing the brunt of it. Now, global south countries need climate finance that will contribute to climate adaptation and mitigation measures. Global north countries (Annex 1 countries - according to the UNFCCC) are to contribute 100 Billion USDs each year that are to go to support global south countries ( Annex 2 countries) but this amount is supposed to be paid back.

we need non-debt creating climate finance!
