The climate crisis isn’t happening BY ACCIDENT. For decades, the world’s wealthiest polluters including oil & gas corporations have made billions while driving the emissions fuelling extreme heat, floods and droughts. Now, ordinary people and communities are paying the price. #TaxTheSuperRich #MakePollutersPay

The #climatecrisis is already showing up in our shopping baskets. Extreme heat, floods and droughts are making food harder to grow and more expensive to buy. Meanwhile, the world’s wealthiest polluters keep making billions. #TaxTheSuperRich #MakePollutersPay #extremeweather

The intense heatwave at the end of June alone, is estimated to have killed 20,000 people. Climate crisis-driven heat is “sucking soils dry” as extreme drought spreads across Europe and other parts of the world. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/31/wildfires-extreme-weather-europe-spain-france-climate-crisis-analysis #MakePollutersPay #climatecrisis #heatwave #drought #fires

This is not success. It’s a system designed to funnel unimaginable wealth to fossil fuel corporations while the rest of us deal with soaring energy bills, extreme weather and the growing costs of the climate crisis. They want us to believe there's no money for affordable energy, climate resilience, or a faster transition to renewables There is money. It's sitting in corporate profit accounts Time to make polluters pay: https://act.gp/3RLI2EV #MakePollutersPay #Renewables #EndFossilFuels

Make it make sense. As the world burns in the oil industry's #ClimateCrisis, the Luxon government is celebrating a (futile) new search for fuel to throw on the fires. We know that we can't afford to burn even the known oil reserves, so searching for more is reckless and stupid climate denial. #MakeOilHistory #ClimateChange #MakePollutersPay

🔥For millions of Filipinos, extreme heat is no joke. It adds to the many challenges our communities already face, from health risks to lost livelihoods, especially among climate-sensitive sectors like our fisherfolk. The corporations driving the climate crisis must be held accountable. Governments must stop letting Big Oil boil the planet for profit—and make polluters pay for the damage they’ve caused. Take action today. Hit the link in our bio and demand climate justice. #makepolluterspay

Europe’s extreme heat has killed around 20,000 people in just one week, including over 5,700 deaths in France alone, while a five‑day heatwave in India was linked to nearly 30,000 excess deaths. Adapting our homes, cities and health systems and protecting people from the fossil‑fuelled climate crisis must now be treated as an ABSOLUTE political priority. #heat #fires #health #climatechange #climatecrisis #heatwaves #makepolluterspay

France is burning Our hearts are with everyone forced to flee their homes, firefighters risking everything and every community living through this nightmare You deserve better This isn't "just nature" Decades of burning coal, oil & gas are making wildfires more frequent and more destructive The fossil fuel corporations behind this crisis knew They kept drilling They kept profiting Communities pay the price Time to make polluters pay: https://act.gp/3RLI2EV #MakePollutersPay #wildfires

The environmental damages caused by the consumption of the top 10% consumers are substantial, exceeding funding gaps in biodiversity and climate finance. Mitigation policy directed at this group can reduce emissions/pollution, raise revenue for sustainability transitions and improve equity simultaneously: https://www.nature.com/articles/s44458-026-00079-x We need #degrowth, a #DonutEconomy & #SystemChange to #Conviviality in a #CaringEconomy of #Partnerism within #planetboundaries, please! 🙏 #TaxTheRich #MakePollutersPay #cooltheclimate #CapitalismKills

Fossil fuel companies have blood on their hands.⁠ Large parts of Asia are flooding, while heatwaves, droughts and fires in Europe, North Africa, North America and many other regions have left thousands dead.⁠ All the while companies like Shell or TotalEnergies are posting record profits.⁠ It’s time to make polluters pay for what they’ve done to our world. #MakePollutersPay

Our planet burns while they bank BILLIONS. As Trump’s War continues to rage in Iran, Big Oil once again announced monster profits - all while the world suffers from record-breaking heatwaves, unprecedented wildfires and extreme weather The worst part? Their products literally help fuel the climate crisis that we all experience! How many lives have to be turned upside down before fossil fuel profits stop coming first? A different future is possible: https://act.gp/3RLI2EV #MakePollutersPay

It is not business as usual. Four seasons used to mean change. Now they too often mean extremes. Extreme weather events are causing widespread destruction and financial hardship. Yet the biggest polluters continue to profit while ordinary people bear the brunt of the costs. #MakePollutersPay (Image credits: Reddit u/prudhvisekhar1996)

Now you’re paying the price for a war you didn’t start. We analysed how seven EU countries responded to the war on Iran. Governments chose short‑term fossil fuel subsidies and fuel tax cuts that mostly help wealthy households and big corporations – not families struggling to pay rent or buy groceries. We need measures that protect people from #fossilflation, not policies that bail out a broken system. #MakePollutersPay

Smoke from Canadian wildfires has arrived in the United States, affecting the health of 109 million people who are under smoky skies. While this tragedy is terrifying, unfortunately it is no surprise. The facts: ⚡ The oil industry is responsible. They must be held accountable. 🌍 Everything on our planet is interconnected. ☀️ Renewables are the solution to end the era of oil. Sign our petition.

“Heat is the leading cause of weather-related mortality worldwide" How many more fossil fuelled heatwaves will it take before governments make polluters pay and use that money to fund real climate mitigation and life saving adaptation? #heat #heatwave #health #climatechange #climatecrisis #makepolluterspay

"This is folly on a globally calamitous scale. (...) Fossil fuels, which were for long so beneficial to humanity, have to be recognised as poisons. And petroleum companies must pay for backtracking on their promises and putting shareholder dividends ahead of planetary health and human wellbeing." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jul/07/big-oil-companies-profiting-fossil-fuel-global-climate-change?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other #heat #elnino #heatwave #climatecrisis #climatechange #climatedisasters #makepolluterspay
