We need meaningful action from the #ECB

Waiting for fossil fuel bond maturity is simply not an option that protects our climate. The European Central Bank must sell their fossil fuel bonds, and buy green bonds from REAL green businesses instead.. #ecb #parisagreement

Oceans play a vital role in taking the heat out of climate change, but at what cost? 🐠

Combined data from satellites and ships show how ocean acidification has intensified over the past 30 years - having a detrimental effect on marine life.
