🚨 The Arctic Sunrise has been banned from entering the port of Nice for the UN Ocean Conference, following a peaceful protest against bottom trawling. But nothing can stop our efforts to #ProtectTheOceans Take action >> https://act.gp/42st8VS

Greenpeace calls on all governments and international bodies to ensure the #Madleen (Gaza Freedom Flotilla) is allowed to complete its peaceful mission safely and unhindered.

Humanitarian relief efforts must be protected, not targeted. Civilians and aid workers are not military targets.

⚠️ ALL IS NOT LOST ⚠️

The news cycle is tremendously disheartening. Wildfires, the spread of climate disinformation in real time, genocides, the rise of the far right, removing fact checking and supports that protect vulnerable communities - it’s heavy.

We have a formidable amount of obstacles in our way.

But don’t lose sight of the fact that it isn’t too late.

Every fraction of action matters - and it’s not over yet.

🤍 Sebastião Salgado – photographer, humanist, and tireless defender of nature, traditional peoples, and human dignity.

His work – which so beautifully documented the wonders and urgencies of our planet – will continue to inspire the fight for a greener and fairer world.

Global #FastFashion brands are churning out more clothes than the planet can handle.

This waste is often dumped in Global South countries, impacting health and polluting ecosystems.

More than 40% of insect species have declined in just a decade. They’re vanishing 8 times faster than mammals, birds or reptiles.

If insects go, so do the ecosystems that keep us alive.

Biodiversity is our life-support system — we can’t afford to let it collapse.

💰 "We can pay now, or we’ll pay much more later." — UN climate chief

This isn’t just about saving the planet — it’s about stabilising economies, avoiding mass suffering, and saving ourselves.

Strong climate action is the only rational choice.

Delay = disaster.

#ClimateCrisis

It’s #WorldBeeDay. A great day to take action for a better world.

A world with more bees.

And fewer billionaires getting obscenely rich by exploiting people and destroying nature.

Greenpeace strongly condemns the drone attack on the Conscience, an humanitarian vessel carrying aid to Gaza. We call on all governments and international bodies to ensure the Conscience is allowed to complete its mission unmolested after repairs are carried out. Humanitarian relief efforts must be protected, not targeted.

#CeasefireNow #Gazafreedomflotilla

Where’s the freedom if we rely on a polluting car just to reach basic services spread far and wide?

Where’s the freedom when kids can’t play outside or walk or cycle to school because it’s too dangerous — or when they grow up breathing toxic air every single day?

It’s time to resist. The time is now.

Across the world billionaire bullies are trying to steal our rights and freedoms. But people everywhere are uniting against the billionaire takeover.

The resistance is growing. Will you resist with us?

Sign the pledge to fight the billionaire takeover - every signature helps grow our people-powered resistance.

From tech empires to fossil fuel giants—billionaires are using their wealth to drown out the voices of the people.

They want to control what we see, how we live, and who gets to have a say.

This isn’t freedom.

This is a takeover.

We won’t stand by as they destroy our planet.👇🏽

Every billionaire is a policy failure.

Pass it on.

About 80% of energy still comes from fossil fuels.

This reliance is a huge risk for us.

Not just because gas, oil and coal are fuelling the #climatecrisis but because it makes us unsafe in many ways.

Real energy security can only be achieved with 100% renewables.

Here’s why 👇

Billionaires and oligarchs are using their obscene fortunes to undermine and subvert democratic processes, limit our rights and freedoms, and weaken regulations meant to protect people and the planet.

But they underestimate our power to resist and defend ourselves, and our shared home.

We’ve fought and won before, and we will fight and win again.

Join the fight against the attempted billionaire takeover.👇

3 #EarthDay facts on plastic that will convince you why we need a strong #PlasticsTreaty NOW 🤯🥤🌍

"The only parts of Europe that aren’t being boiled dry are being washed away in floods. The EU must urgently update its climate targets to reflect the scientific reality, and put a stop to new fossil fuel projects as a first step to a full phase-out." – Thomas Gelin, climate campaigner at Greenpeace EU

Do they have no shame?

Shell executives were at the New York Stock Exchange last week celebrating ramping up fossil fuel production and slashing investment in renewables to boost profits.

The fossil fuel industry is driving the climate destruction we see all around us and getting filthy rich off the back of it.

It's time to demand that our governments makes Big Oil giants like Shell pay up for their climate damage >> https://act.gp/3zsCZRa

#stopdrillingstartpaying

The world has lost 5% to 10% of all insect species in the last 150 years.

The collapse of insect populations across much of the world is one of the most alarming aspects of the unfolding biodiversity crisis.

This is our own life-support system. We must defend it against corporate greed and resist industrial expansion that’s fuelling species loss, climate breakdown and deepening inequalities.

Buy less, live more.

Unsustainable consumption fuels environmental destruction and injustice, piling up waste so vast it’s visible from space.

Let’s make the lower levels of this pyramid our new normal.
