What is "PL490"? 🤔

👉 It's a genocidal and anti-Indigenous draft bill which the #Bolsonaro government in #Brazil is trying to pass as soon as possible.

What some call ”climate action” is actually outsourcing and excluding consumption, setting vague distant targets, burning biomass instead of fossil fuels and excluding the emissions, offsetting, switching from one disastrous energy source to a slightly less disastrous one etc.2/2

Some people make it seem as if we’re not doing enough to stop the climate crisis. But that’s not true.

Because to not do enough, you have to do something. And the truth is that we are basically not doing anything apart from “creative carbon accounting” and creating loopholes.1/2

Wildfires, floods, droughts, heatwaves and other (un)natural disasters rage all over the world.
Many now ask "What will it take for people in power to act?".

Well, it will many things, but above all it will take: massive pressure from media and massive pressure from the public.
