Climate collapse is already being felt every day, everywhere: from catastrophic flooding here in the UK to countries like Brazil. Rich countries like the UK must pay their fair share for the damage caused by centuries of pollution. Read the full letter:

The UK government is cutting climate and nature programmes in the Global South – while claiming it’s meeting its climate funding commitments. We’ve joined 86 organisations to demand these shameful cuts are reversed. https://t.co/tfLt1eeXgx

So far, the US and Israel have killed over 1,000 people in Iran. Last week, over 150 schoolgirls were killed when bombs fell on the playground of the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in southern Iran.

The US is using UK military bases in its illegal war on Iran. UK support for these illegal attacks risks repeating the grave mistakes the UK government made in Iraq – and once again breaking international law. Tell the UK government: #HandsOffIran ⬇️

The costs of war are high – on life, livelihoods, and communities. Last week, 115 girls aged 7-12 were killed when bombs fell at the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in southern Iran. Escalation is a political choice – the UK government must uphold international law and push for peace.

International law is meant to stop moments like this: illegal and unprovoked US and Israeli attacks on Iran. Our international laws were written in the aftermath of WWII by people who understood that international law exists to protect people.

‼️Israel is trying to claim large areas of the occupied West Bank as “state property” if Palestinians cannot prove their ownership – which after decades of Israeli occupation is almost impossible. Take action to stop Israel stealing more Palestinian land. https://t.co/XHSmE3PebE

MONLAR has set up eight demonstration farms where farmers test ecological farming methods in real conditions. Farmers are also now developing new income streams through community-based tourism, while communities are monitoring rainforest areas and reporting illegal activity.
