After days of stalled negotiations, Global #PlasticsTreaty talks just ended. The big takeaway is unless high ambition countries step up, oil producing nations will derail treaty ambition.
👉 Tell @POTUS to champion a strong treaty! bit.ly/3zTxiZt

"Should the world be bullied into destroying our oceans because a few businesses want to get rich quick based on an outdated rule? Or should global governments wrestle back control? The answer is really obvious.” #StopDeepSeaMining theguardian.com/environment/…

Once again, our elected leaders have been fooled by the false choice between a healthy economy and a healthy planet. We will have neither if our government continues to sanction the limitless production and export of oil and gas. greenpeace.org/usa/news/ther…

YES 👏👏👏
June marks #PrideMonth, and at Greenpeace we’re fighting for a better future and firmly believe that in order to achieve that, we not only need climate justice, but also racial and social justice and gender equality.
Sending love your way, people. 🌈

Congress just threw communities most harmed by oil & gas industry under the bus. Despite enviro & climate justice organizations calling for a clean #debtceiling bill, the Senate passed provisions that fly in the face of everything science & justice demand

#NoDirtyDeal #CleanDebtCeiling
BREAKING: @SenJeffMerkley introduces amendment to strip NEPA rollback provisions out of the dirty #debtceiling bill. This pairs with @SenTimKaine's amendment to strip the #MVP approval. Together, they eliminate some of the major environmental justice and climate poison pills.
