‘No climate justice without human rights’
Climate protesters demand end to fossil fuels and complicity in Gaza genocide
Protesters during the Climate Justice Coalition's March for Global Climate Justice in central London, November 16, 2024

PROTESTERS declared that “there is no climate justice without human rights” as thousands marched through London on Saturday. 

More than 60 organisations including Extinction Rebellion, Greenpeace, Amnesty International, and Palestine Solidarity Campaign, gathered to demand that the government end its reliance on fossil fuels and its complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. 

The route began outside the British Museum, which has a £50 million sponsorship deal with oil giant BP, which was recently granted gas exploration licences in occupied Palestinian waters.
