Make Polluters Pay

Natural disasters aren’t natural. A storm doesn’t decide who has insurance, savings or somewhere safe to go. People built the systems that leave others exposed. People can change them. Read #DisasterDivide: www.oxfam.org/en/research/... #MakeRichPollutersPay

We might add the sneer from politicians to those from shareholders

Let's call it out - cynically cloaking the #Jackdaw decision in a climate transition fund is #Greenwashing. It doesn’t justify giving Shell the green light for this project. It's like letting a wealthy arsonist set more fires simply because they’ve agreed to chip in a few quid for the fire brigade.

Insurance insiders have sounded the alarm: as climate impacts escalate, their industry is preparing to hike prices or withdraw from large parts of the UK. The oil and gas industry must pay. They caused it. They profited. They should pay. Let's hold these polluters accountable. #MakePollutersPay

Climate change is a workers' issue. Oil companies must pay. 👏👏👏 Fantastic words by @andreaegangs.bsky.social from @unison.org.uk speaking about our Pre-Budget Rally last week. Our coalition is building. More movements,campaigners, and everyday people are coming together to #MakePollutersPay.

Yesterday, in advance of the budget, we brought together politicians, and members of our coalition outside Parliament to put a spotlight on a simple demand: #MakePollutersPay. After a summer of extreme weather, oil and gas companies will post huge profits, whilst lobbying to weaken taxes.

Oil and gas companies are about to cash in another quarter of obscene profits, but the Chancellor isn't using the Budget to stop the plunder. Next Weds 14 Oct we’re holding a rally outside Parliament to tell the Chancellor to #MakePollutersPay - join us! www.makepolluterspay.co.uk/take-action/...

This is huge! The UN Secretary-General António Guterres has just used his final General Assembly speech to world leaders to pay tribute to our #MakePollutersPay movement. “You are on the right side of history – keep going.” This movement is powerful. We are changing politics. Get involved!

❤️ Solidarity with everyone devastated by the floods and landslides in Nepal, driven by extreme rainfall and rapid glacial destabilisation. This is climate injustice. The fossil fuel industry caused this crisis. They profited. They should pay for the #LossAndDamage 📸 Niranjan Shrestha / AP

✍🏼 Sign the petition here! act.350.org/sign/tax-pol... They're cashing in on war. The biggest contributors to the climate crisis stand to profit from destruction, while those who did the least suffer more and more. Let’s make them pay. Add your name, and help build momentum.

The fossil fuel industry costs every person on Earth $1,400 a year — and pays almost nothing back. 350.org's new #OutOfPocket report breaks it down. Santa Marta is the first conference ever called to end fossil fuels, and this report is the receipt. Read the full report: 350.org/out-of-pocke...

While families struggle with soaring bills and record heatwaves, Big Oil is preparing to report another round of massive profits. Conflict shouldn’t create windfalls. They caused the crisis, they knew the harm, they must pay. @350.org @oxfamgb.bsky.social Tax the profits. #MakePollutersPay

Tonight at London Climate Action Week: We have a fantastic line-up of speakers. Join us as we explore how to shift public narratives and build broad public support for climate justice. The movement to make polluters pay is moving into the mainstream. www.eventbrite.com/e/time-to-ma...

"We can finally turn the page on fossil fuels & write a future powered by renewables & rooted in climate justice." UN Chief @antonioguterres.bsky.social lays it bare: our dependence on fossil fuels is the "worst of times." We demand a fair, well-funded transition. Time to #MakePollutersPay. 🧵👇

Dear all, Serious People have just launched their second film on Instagram in support of the levies. This is in English. A version with both Danish and German subtitles is on the way. Please like and share! www.instagram.com/p/DZnURDRqUlM/
