Please SIGN: Tell the EU not to let big polluters off the hook!

Dear friends of the rainforests,

The climate crisis is more urgent than ever. Yet the EU debate on rules for carbon removals is focused on carbon offsetting which will further fuel climate chaos.

Carbon offsetting gives the illusion of action, allows big polluters to avoid emissions reductions and distracts us from the urgent need for real, deep cuts.

We cannot afford to delay implementation of the real, just solutions we need: an equitably managed phase-out of fossil fuels; fair, democratic, sustainable renewable energy that prioritizes well-being over economic growth; support to farmers for an agroecological transition toward food sovereignty; close-to-nature forestry practices; and the redirection of public subsidies from the fossil fuel industry and false solutions toward the above measures.

Join us in demanding that the EU drops its Carbon Removals Certification Framework (CRCF) plans. 

TAKE ACTION

Thanks for being involved,

John Hayduska

Indigenous Ka’apor are Brazil’s best rainforest defenders

Deforestation in Brazil has increased dramatically over the past ten years. The territories of Indigenous peoples have also been impacted, albeit to a much lesser extent. Only the Indigenous Ka’apor – partners of our organization – were able to resist the general trend and successfully defend their forest.

Ecuador: keep the oil in the ground!

In August, a referendum will decide the future of Yasuní National Park in Ecuador. The people can vote to either protect the rainforest – or to expand oil drilling in the Amazon region. Our partner organization YASunidos is working hard to raise awareness and encourage a “YES” vote to save Yasuní.

Please help with a donation to the YASunidos campaign to safeguard Yasuní National Park. In doing so, you will be lending international support to a crucial step toward a fossil-free society!
