📰The #CIJ_ICJ has spoken—fossil fuel production is no longer just bad policy, it’s a violation of international law. Read our NYT op-ed on why this ruling is a legal game-changer for climate justice. nyti.ms/3IKYNvs

Opinion | Climate Science Is Now the Law

A landmark legal ruling leaves no doubt that continuing fossil fuel production and use, let alone expanding it, violates the law.

1. Researching this week’s column, I felt that I understood at last just why, on so many issues – benefits, Gaza, environmental and planning laws, anti-protest laws, bank deregulation, fiscal rules etc - Labour is out-Torying the Tories. Why it has become so cruel, so destructive and so spineless. 🧵

One of the astonishing aspects of our times is that once-progressive parties are rushing us towards dystopia almost as fast as the far right is. This week's column is about what we might now face and how to contest it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
