Stop jailing climate truth tellers!

This sentence is a gut-punch for us all. #Peaceful climate activists will spend the next four to five years in jail.

Why? For leading a video call about a #protest against the last government’s failure to act on climate change and its plans to “max out” on #oil and #gas.

This is the tragic result of repressive #Tory laws which treat peaceful climate protesters as violent offenders.
- Activists can now be #jailed for up to ten years!
- Meanwhile, big #polluters destroy our planet with impunity.

Yanis Varoufakis ~ What's Behind the COP26 Fraud?

#Net-zero is popular among #polluters for good reason – it’s #toothless compared to #emissions #restrictions and a #carbon #tax. There are three reasons #Cop26 proved such a spectacular #debacle: A #planet-wide #collective #action #problem over “ #free-riding”. A #global #coordination #failure. And… #capitalism!

Jeremy Corbyn ~ Climate Crisis Is a Class Issue

https://jacobinmag.com/2021/08/jeremy-corbyn-climate-crisis-global-warming-ipcc-un-report-column

'The #political and #economic #system we live in does not produce #climatechange by accident but by design, #rewarding big #polluters and #resource #extractors with #superprofits. But it doesn’t have to be like this, and our reaction must be one of #hope rather than #fear. If we take on the #powerful, removing the #systemic #incentives to #burn the #planet for a quick windfall, we can do things differently.'
