Carbon emissions are the number one driver behind the climate crisis. Climate catastrophes have waged across the world, and these will continue to devastate communities everywhere. Fossil fuels are deadly, and they will take more lives as our dependency and usage of them grows. To stop this crisis we must we start with reducing emissions at source and keeping fossil fuels in the ground. #EndTheEraOfFossilFuels

Apologizing for past crimes against children doesn’t cancel out ongoing crimes against children. Apologies don’t rectify past violence when that violence is still continuing. The genocide has not stopped here on Turtle Island, it’s just expanded to exploit other lands, globally. Apologies mean nothing without swift, corrective action.

Beware the hydrogen hype—it’s a monster in disguise! 🧛♂️🧟♂️ Don’t be fooled by the myths about ‘clean’ hydrogen. While hydrogen burns clean, the production of hydrogen energy is not. It uses an immense amount of water and if it leaks it will eventually combust and cause catastrophic damages to workers and communities near hydrogen hubs. #SayNOtoHydrogen #NoFalseSolutions
