🚨 CLIMATE JUSTICE ALERT! 🌏 No more impunity for States fueling climate destruction.

The UN General Assembly 🇺🇳 has voted overwhelmingly to back the International Court of Justice’s landmark climate ruling, affirming that States have legal obligations to prevent climate harm and protect people from the climate crisis. ⚖️🌏


This is a major victory for climate justice, frontline communities, Indigenous Peoples, youth movements, and everyone who has been saying what polluters refused to hear:


🔸  Climate destruction is not “development.”

🔸  Climate inaction is not neutral.

🔸  Climate harm must come with accountability.


At Manushya Foundation, as fierce long-time advocates for climate justice, we welcome this historic step. From Thailand 🇹🇭 to Laos 🇱🇦, we have confronted false climate solutions, corporate greenwashing, land grabs, extractivism, and “development” projects that sacrifice frontline communities while pretending to save the planet.


Now States must act. Thailand, Laos, and all governments must stop hiding behind empty climate promises and start protecting the environment and its people. ✊🏾


‼️ And to the 8 countries that voted no: history is watching. It is no coincidence that some of the world’s biggest fossil fuel powers and militarised States stood against climate accountability.


The law is catching up.

Us movements from the Global South are not backing down. ✊🏾
