We knew fossil fuel companies were shameless in their reckless disregard for life on this planet.

But when they're shameless enough to sponsor the very events their products will destroy, something has to change.

1.6 MILLION cubic metres of artificial snow just to stage the Winter Olympics.

While fossil fuel giants like Eni sponsor the Games and fuel the crisis melting winter itself.

The International Olympic Committee must drop oil and gas sponsorships NOW.

In 2025 alone, climate disasters hit more than 87 MILLION people worldwide and claimed over 8,000 LIVES, from drought-driven hunger to deadly storms and floods.

This is fossil-fuelled chaos.

Time to #MakePollutersPay.

Fossil fuel firms may have to pay for climate damage under proposed UN tax

Framework Convention on International Tax Cooperation could also force ultra-rich to pay global wealth tax

HALF of the world’s CO₂ emissions come from just 32 fossil fuel companies.

This is concentrated corporate power driving the crisis.

And sabotaging the action needed to stop it.

Business as usual is a POLITICAL CHOICE. And it is deadly.

It means over 8 million people will lose their lives every year due to air pollution.

It means climate change could cause up to 15.6 million deaths by 2050.

It means plastic production set to triple by 2060, locking in pollution for decades.

This is not failure. It is a system designed to protect polluters, not people.

There are solutions.

💰 ​ #TaxTheSuperRich to fund a green and fair transition.

🛢️​ #MakePollutersPay for the damage they cause and support climate-impacted communities.

🏭 A strong global #PlasticsTreaty that cuts plastic production at source.

Let’s RESIST corporate greed and big polluters in every way we can, and push for real and fair solutions.

Man with festive lights holds up a series of messages: Just because it's Christmas ... (and at Christmas you tell the truth). You can't fix the environmental crisis ... without making polluters pay.  And taxing the super-rich ... that's common sense I fear.

Pari islanders are demanding compensation for climate damage they've suffered and help to fund flood protection. #MakePollutersPay

They're also calling for a rapid cut in CO2 emissions by Holcim, the world's largest cement firm.
