Land grabbing never went away, we just took our eyes off it. Our newly published report by IPES-Food shines the spotlight on the gross green & grey grabs, squeezing small & medium farmers out in favor of land speculation & carbon offsets. For more, see👇🏾 ipes-food.org/report/land-sq…

Nothing and no one is spared. Not even nature-based projects that are trying to correct our terrible human footprint. We will have to rethink what we thought we knew about climate change. Once you reach tipping points, it’s be too little too late. Emissions must be cut at source.

The devastating floods affecting Kenya are a manifestation of #climatechange ; #environmentdegradation , poor urban planning & weak disaster preparedness across the country despite reliable weather forecasts. The loss of life & economic damage we are witnessing is unfathomable.

Happy #EarthDay !🌍🎉

Today, we reflect and celebrate the interconnectedness of people, nature and climate. We envision a new era in which we can meet people’s needs while addressing climate change and protecting nature.
