#NowWeRise – 9 Dec Day of Action for Climate Justice

Prices will keep rising, corporate profits will keep rising and the world will keep burning – unless we rise.

2023 will be the hottest year on record. Climate breakdown is no longer a problem of the future: it’s happening now. Extreme weather events on every continent are becoming more frequent and more destructive, leaving behind mass devastation and loss of life and livelihoods in communities around the world.

At the same time, the corporations most responsible for this crisis keep posting record profits, paid for by us through our extortionate bills. And countries claiming to be ‘climate leaders’, including the UK, sign off plans to expand drilling for new oil and gas – adding flames to the fire and doing nothing to reduce the cost of living.

If we’re to have any hope of a liveable planet and tackling the climate crisis, we must dramatically and immediately reduce the use of fossil fuels – and overturn the systems of extraction, exploitation and oppression fuelling this crisis.

As world leaders gather for a COP28 Summit presided over by an oil executive in the United Arab Emirates, we’re calling for mobilisations for climate justice across Britain.

Together, we will replace the destructive, expensive fossil fuel economy with a real alternative. We will call out our leaders’ climate hypocrisy. We’ll stand together for human rights across the globe.
