While we celebrate The Onion's brilliant InfoWars takeover, let us also remember that the Sandy Hook families have yet to receive a dime from Alex Jones.

Pluralistic: What's a "gig work minimum wage" (17 Feb 2026)

🆕 report shows that half of the world's emissions come from just a handful of companies: http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jan/21/carbon-dioxide-co2-emissions-fossil-fuel-firms-study
“[it's] clear that big polluters must phase out fossil fuels & #PayUp. When the facts are plain & the law is clear, accountability must follow,” CIEL's Rebecca Brown.

🗣️ We call on Indonesia & ALL other States to course correct & choose real #ClimateAction: 🔹 Stop betting on dangerous distractions like carbon capture & storage #CCS and #Offsets 🔹 #EndFossilFuels & #PayUp 🔹 Reform the climate talks & #KickBigPollutersOut!
🤫 Spoiler alert: Ignoring or resisting binding law doesn’t make it unbind. What’s needed? States must ❗ Re-align their climate national plans with international law and science ❗ #EndFossilFuels#PayUp: Provide resources at the scale of #LossAndDamage needs.
💰💰💰 Climate finance is not charity, it’s an obligation. Climate finance has long been underwhelming and undelivered. It’s time to #PayUp at a scale capable of meeting the goals of the #ParisAgreement.
CCS & carbon markets don’t cut emissions at the source, they license delay. #ClimateJustice means #EndFossilFuels & #PayUp. Not paying to pollute by buying offsets & continuing business as usual climate-destroying emissions. It's a slap in the face to frontline communities.
What does the Fund truly need? 🔍 Transparency, 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Participation, and 👩‍⚖️ accountability. Communities have paid the highest price; wealthy polluters must #PayUp their fair share—not as charity, but as a legal obligation—and at the scale the crisis demands.
