Climate emergencies are escalating, with floods, wildfires, droughts, and deadly heat waves devastating communities worldwide. Yet the ultra-rich and fossil fuel corporations continue to profit from the destruction while escaping accountability.
The people least responsible for the climate crisis—particularly communities in the Global South, women, girls, and Indigenous Peoples—are bearing the harshest consequences for this crisis.
Oxfam’s latest research reveals that someone in the richest 0.1% emits more carbon in a single day than a person in the bottom 50% produces in a year. Billionaires are actively investing in polluting industries, with the average billionaire responsible for 1.9 million tons of CO₂ annually: the equivalent of flying a private jet around the globe 10,000 times.
The U.S., as the world’s largest historical carbon pollution emitter, must lead the transition to clean, renewable energy. That starts with making the biggest polluters pay their fair share and ending investments in fossil fuels.
Add your name to demand climate justice. Let’s hold the ultra-rich and big polluters accountable and fund a just, clean energy future.
