How women’s environmental action across the Global South can create a better planet

Publicado em 06/02/2024 por Antonio Carlos Teixeira

When climate change-related events occurs – such as more extreme weather, forest fires or floods – women and girls bear a heavier burden and experience more severe impacts. Violence against women is also on the rise amid global warming.

However, we need to change the narrative that women are merely “victims” of climate crisis.

In reality, women in the Global South countries also possess the abilities and strength to protect the environment. They manifest their power to preserve the environment in various actions, both formal and informal, individual and collective. Continuar lendo →

Climate Destruction Fuels Growing Sector of the US Economy

Publicado em 05/10/2023 por Antonio Carlos Teixeira

The cost of the climate crisis keeps going up.

In terms of damage to the atmosphere and life on Earth, this may seem obvious. But the overall price tag of global warming has long been the subject of debate. Now, new data from Bloomberg Intelligence has put a number to the cost of burning fossil fuels.
