People keep saying "If we do a wealth tax, rich people will leave the country" And I'm like "Maybe, if we get lucky. But let's try it first and see how we go." #NZPol #TaxTheSuperRich

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

US$992 billion. That is the estimated ownership-based climate debt linked to the world’s richest 0.01% in 2022 ALONE. In simple terms, it is the climate damage linked to what the ultra-rich own, fund, and profit from. This is why taxing the super-rich is a climate issue. Because the people causing and profiting from the most damage should not leave everyone else to pay the bill. #TaxTheSuperRich. Fund a fair, green future. Sign the petition: https://act.gp/4kFsaNr

On Global Inequality Day, we’re calling out the super-rich for profiting from the systems driving climate damage while everyone else is left with the bill. Red card to climate destruction. Red card to increasing inequality. #TaxTheSuperRich https://act.gp/4kFsaNr

Most billionaire wealth is taken, NOT earned. The climate crisis is also a crisis of wealth inequality. If, instead of trashing the planet and destroying nature, the super-rich paid their fair share in taxes, there’d be enough money for a green and fair world for all.⁣ #TaxTheSuperRich https://act.gp/4kFsaNr

Hoarding wealth and power is NOT a success story. If, instead of trashing the planet and destroying nature, the super-rich paid their fair share in taxes, there’d be enough money for a green and fair world for all. https://act.gp/4kFsaNr #TaxtheSuperRich
