As we head into a new year, we’re excited to unveil our second annual report! Covering the period June 2022 — March 2023, it recounts how far Opportunity Green has come during that time and charts new waters for our future. ⤵️ buff.ly/3S3cyI5
📣NEW – Our submission to the @UN Special Rapporteur on climate change, corporate accountability, and human rights. In our submission to @Falai02 we noted: 🧵1/3 buff.ly/3uFLR2X
"We should create a society where families are enabled on an equal basis to decide what is right for them." Today on @fawcettsociety's #EqualPayDay our CEO @aooleary discusses how Opportunity Green's #paternityleave policy advances gender equality! 👇👇 buff.ly/3GcNbx2
⏰ Last chance to apply! We're hiring a Brussels-based Policy and Coalition Consultant to work with @sashacoalition. ⌛️Part-time, fixed term for 1 year (subject to funding) 💶€70,000, paid monthly Apply here⤵️ buff.ly/3ZCqMSI #hiring #Brusselsjobs #consultantjobs
#Cruise companies must stop trying to gaslight the public into believing that fossil #LNG is a climate solution - the evidence says it is not. 📽️ Watch our video to find out more ⤵️ #greenwashing
Read our NEW report (Un)sustainable from ship to shore! ➡️ tinyurl.com/4m5syzww 🔦We highlight the systemic nature of the cruise industry’s apparent misleading advertising of fossil LNG 👀 We look at 'green' claims made by some of the biggest international #cruise companies
The oil & gas industry had a record cash windfall in 2022 due to high fuel prices But most of this has gone to dividends, share buybacks & debt repayment, rather than into energy investments. Only a small fraction has been spent on clean technologies 👉 iea.li/43aq1jH
Not listening to science is a clear message saying you don’t care. 🇲🇺 Shaama Sandooyea called on governments at #IMOmeeting to agree on halving #shipping emissions by 2030 and reaching zero by 2040. #ClimateAction Shaama's full speech at the 🇺🇳 @IMOHQ: cleanshipping.org/news/the-wrong…
✨New blog! 5 reasons why... the Law of the Sea Tribunal must require countries to act on shipping emissions. Our submission asked ITLOS to confirm what countries must do to decarbonise the shipping sector. Here are 5 reasons why this is so important 👇 buff.ly/444xm5k
Sorry @RoyalCaribbean, but #LNG energy is not 'clean energy', and claiming that it is is #greenwashing. Hopefully our report - out in July - will encourage you to do better. buff.ly/44mud0I #SayNotoLNG
Climate impact of shipping under growing scrutiny ahead of key meeting theguardian.com/environment/20…
🌈As #Pride2023 celebrations go into full swing, we’re thinking about the relationship between the LGBTQIA+ community & the climate crisis. In our latest blog @sabrinakdighe explains why the LGBTQIA+ community plays a crucial role in #ClimateJustice 👇 buff.ly/3NkbLil
📣 It's June - and that marks the start of a new era here at Opportunity Green. The team is now moving to a #4DayWeek! 🌱 There are loads of great reasons why we've chosen to do this 👉 here are our top 5... buff.ly/3oFf8Iw
Company directors need to consider climate #litigation risk in the context of their #supplychains - as this French case against the Casino Group proves. Check out our latest blog for more 🖱️ buff.ly/41LwEZd
The term ‘zero emissions airports’ is misleading & masks the 95% of #aviation emissions that come from flights. ✈ That's why we joined @_wearepossible @transenv @The_AEF @GreenAllianceUK @GreenpeaceUK @friends_earth & @CBTransport in this open letter 👇 tinyurl.com/2mjr5jzd
'Let’s reframe the narrative around corporate travel' ~ says @cm_hicks, who railed from Devon to Berlin and back for work last week🚆🌍 The best way to reduce aviation emissions is to fly less. Business travellers can and should be leading the way. opportunitygreen.org/blog/demand-re…
LNG may be branded as clean; however it's just another dirty fuel says @IKeuschnigg in our latest blog. Find out how LNG is being greenwashed in the #shipping sector as a “climate beneficial” - and why we need to #SayNoToLNG 🚢 buff.ly/3GgFXbM
📣 We have a new blog! Check it out now for a range of opinions, ideas and inspiration on #climatechange from the Opportunity Green team. 👇👇 buff.ly/3zurbKm
We need action on aviation's climate impact ⚠️✈️Join this #webinar on Monday 30 Jan for a discussion on the benefits and practicality of improving jet fuel quality. You'll even get to hear from our amazing Legal Director @cm_hicks 👏 Register here 👇👇 eventbrite.com/e/jet-fuel-qua…
