Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

The full report is here — and I'll note that the physical model they're using leaves out key impacts such as the loss of fresh water from the Tibetan plateau, which implies that the economic consequences are far worse than the headline number.

Climate change is embedded in the history of colonialism and capitalism. Reflecting on this history allows to better understand the carbon market.

Coal and colonialism

The science unequivocally says that burning fossil fuels is the leading cause of the climate crisis. Based on historical and per capita emissions data, a comprehensive study estimates that industrialised countries in the Global North are responsible for 92 per cent of the excess emissions driving climate breakdown. Not everyone in the Global North is equally responsible, however. Just 75 investor-owned companies are responsible for about a third of worldwide emissions, and just 125 billionaires emit 393 million tons of CO2 each year. That is more than the 2022 emissions of Chile and Argentina combined.

In late September, half a dozen activists with the group Voices Against War chained themselves to turnstiles inside the lobby of Chevron’s offices in Herzliya, Israel, just north of Tel Aviv. Reading from prepared remarks, a spokesperson for the group said that they were Israeli citizens “horrified by the genocide that is being committed in our names” and accused Chevron of “fueling the genocide in Gaza with hundreds of millions of dollars in tax payments, fueling energy apartheid throughout Palestine and destroying our planet’s climate along the way.”

They hope that the combined movements for Palestinian liberation and climate justice will finally bring the genocide to an end.

Activists from both the Palestinian liberation and climate justice movements have already begun to seize on such connections, as is evident in the case of Citigroup, one of the largest financial institutions in Israel and one of the largest investors in fossil fuels in the world. Furthermore, Citigroup board member James S. Turley is also on the board at Northrop Grumman, which manufactures fighter jets for the Israeli military, as detailed by Genocide Gentry. Parker says that these connections inspired a series of actions against Citigroup.

It's amazing how accurate they were able to be with that old equipment. Thought it would be interesting to share how much we knew so long ago.

To be clear: they splashed soup on the glass in front of a piece of art.
