We've taken over cop29.com to unite the millions of people demanding justice.

This summer broke heat records again. Wildfires, droughts and storms are killing thousands and driving up the cost of food, energy and insurance. Worse is coming.

Who's to blame?

More than anyone, it's the fossil fuel industry. Oil, gas and coal are responsible for 90% of carbon dioxide emissions, which are cooking the planet and super-charging extreme weather events.

Big Oil has also lobbied against climate laws, and many firms have ignored their own scientists - all while the planet burns.

It's time to make polluters pay

COP29 is our moment. The loss and damage fund was created to help developing nations that are being hit hardest by climate chaos. But the $702 million pledged so far is just a drop in the ocean.

Fossil fuel companies rake in billions. They must pay into the fund to help communities rebuild, adapt, and repair some of the damage they've caused.

What's in the loss and damage fund?
$0
($702 million)
Annual cost of climate loss and damage in developing countries
$0
($400 billion)
What the oil and gas industry made in 2022
$0
($4 trillion)

Let's make Big Oil pay for the damage they've caused by contributing to the loss and damage fund. It's payback time.
