Greta Thunberg Instagram – 2023 was the hottest year ever recorded. Climate disasters, wars, oppression and inequalities further intensified – killing and displacing countless people. 2023 was yet another year where people in power fought to maintain their violent business as usual by using dangerous lies, hate speech and greenwashing. There seem to be no limits to the lengths they go to defend the exploitation of people and planet for their own gains and profits. They ignore the science as well as the screams of their own children and the most affected people. All this while many environmental defenders and activists were killed. But 2023 was also a year when people once again filled the streets, resisted, defended their lands and fought for their rights and freedom. It was a year where many showed global solidarity and stood united in the fight for climate justice. Activists are as needed as ever, even though we are experiencing increased repression all over the world. We are exhausted, but we are also full of love and rage. We cannot allow things to continue like this. Let’s make 2024 a year of mobilisation, solidarity and accountability. 📸 @misanharriman
