2020 Fossil of the Day Awards- “Not honoring the 1.5 Commitment"
Australia wins the Fossil Award for “NOT honoring the 1.5 Commitment” at the Fossil of the Day Awards: Paris Agreement 5th Anniversary Special Edition! It's cool Australia - you can still be the world’s largest exporter of both coal and fossil gas, have no long-term climate target, appoint frackers to lead your COVID recovery and plan to frack all over indigenous territories - and still take climate seriously. No problem there at all… right, mate? Who cares if you lost 20% of your forests to climate-fueled fires last year…. The koalas will bounce back, just like the dodos did. Australia’s abhorrent facade of climate action earns them this prize for being truly the BEST, at being the WORST on keeping the world under 1.5 degrees of warming. Tune in from our studios in Barcelona and Kuala- Lumpur: for this hilarious award show that helps you to laugh about the circus of international climate politics, so you don’t have to cry…. Produced by the Artivist Network and Climate Action Network International (CANi), the infamous Fossil Award is given to only those who are truly the best, at being the worst.

What the F*ck is Global Climate Finance???

2020 Fossil of the Day Awards: “Not providing Climate Finance and Support”
The United States wins the Fossil Award for “NOT providing climate finance and support” at the Fossil of the Day Awards: Paris Agreement 5th Anniversary Special Edition! America first! Not only did this country, run by the world’s angriest Cheeto, not chip in its climate dues, it cuts money to climate science across the board. Which isn’t surprising, when you give $15,000,000,000 to fossil fuel companies as part of the COVID bailout, you gotta make some cuts somewhere. And in urgent moments such as a pandemic or a climate meltdown, there’s no time to be wasted listening to science….

The Colossal Fossil is undoubtedly the greatest prize for those who are the BEST at being the worst, and no country deserves that honor more than the country led by the worlds angriest troll. The United States is not only the country to pull out of the Paris Agreement, but also it has done some much bat-shit crazy stuff in the past four years. For example, drilling for oil in national parks, or lowering automobile efficiency requirements, or replacing the national environmental protection agency officials with sock puppets - all starts to seem weirdly normal....

Expect the Unexpected [Selections]
Expect the Unexpected is a participatory multi-media performance that takes your hand and brings you to Ende Gelende, a mass direct action for climate justice. This ten minute selection shares glimpses of the rush of a thousand people running into the dust of Europe’s largest lignite coal mine, the fear of confronting charging police lines, the joys of finding lost comrades and the passion that motivates of those who lock their bodies onto railroad tracks. Despite the theatrics, this captivating performance is not just a show - it is an organizing tool that has been performed in more than a dozen countries across Europe, Africa and North America to engage new audiences into experiencing the collective transformation that can come from stepping outside of one’s comfort zones. Expect the Unexpected uses its immersive format to directly engage the audience in horizontal affinity group decision making processes, allowing viewers to get a look “behind the scenes” of not only the action but also it’s organizing and action consensus. Mixing elements of magical realism with traditional storytelling techniques and video footage from Ende Gelande, Expect the Unexpected presents such mobilizations as the “ modern epics” of our age, poetically bringing the art of storytelling around climate justice onto scale with the crisis we face. full video: www.artivistnetwork.org

Slow Down
This performance and video project was created during the artivism Gathering in Budapest, October 2020 "Our life today has accelerated to an unbelievable speed. We built a world and a system based on consumption, greed and thoughtlessness. We produce to then throw away, we drill and dig until there is nothing left, we keep animals in cruel circumstances to slaughter them, some of which then we simply just throw in the trash, while we drive other species to extinction. We make our fellow humans work as slaves for our luxury , while we preach love and care, shutting an eye on reality. The human, sitting on what our kind produced and left to rot, which is now taken back by nature. Imagining the constant destruction we created , it walks us through a trip in their mind. Each act pressures the planet, each act takes us closer to decay. Building up towards the total crash, now is the time to slow down. Now is the time to change, to take action, to lighten the weight which we put on this world. Now is the time to wake up. Through this change, the human thinks about life where we are not exploiting our resources, it imagines a life where we create harmony between nature and humans , where we care for what we take, and we respect it."

Stop and Re- think: II. Artivism Gathering, Budapest.
A story which takes us through four different worlds, four different realities and for the most important : four different truths regarding the system of news and media which is happening right now in Hungary. Our trip begins in a world where you are welcomed by an advertisement " Happiness For Sale". Beautiful, high class quality of life which will bring you joy and a place in your world, you can take home a slice of happiness, own the fulfilled life. As the sheets peel off from the window, one person behind the ad. The person sits in total silence, in peace, surrounded by nature, feeling equal with the earth and its resonance : it is nature where we can find a balance, it is where we were going for happiness for thousands of years, learning from its rhythm and cycles, which is now being replaced with concrete and a promise for a perfect life. As the last sheets of the advertisement peel off there is one message : " You can not Buy Happiness" - just as you would understand, a man, dressed in black, face covered comes and tells you to not remove any more, he starts putting the sheets back. You can not access this sort of happiness, you must buy what they have chosen for you. This is our reality. The second world is where you are living your life as you think it is best for the world. You care for others, you try to make the least damage one can and try to stand up to authorities which are only interested in what they can take, whether it s money, human rights or the respect or nature and last but not least, they will distort your image to the world and make them believe you are the one who is causing the problem, you are working for a higher power no one can understand or access except them. When you look at the broadcast on the television, you can see an image which is of you, but you know it has been disfigured, manipulated and changed to make you the source of the problem. This is our idea of freedom, this is our reality. The third world... Your green areas are being replaced without questioning, and resources are being distributed in an unequal way, keeping friends fat while you are left to starve and the public institutions you have the right to use are going to decay. You decide to take a stand, to show your voice and that you can not be pushed around by authorities. You are labeled as a criminal, as an extremist, someone who is an enemy, less than someone fighting for justice and your freedom. If you will ask their opinion, they will not say anything more than yes or no. They will stay silent, they will be still judgemental. Instead of them listening, you will be demonised. This is our life now, this is our reality. The fourth, the last stop is a dream world. Vivid colors of flowers, nature and people living in harmony together surrounded with diverse species and plants we have never seen. The people agree to protect what they have, to reserve these magical places and respect their importance in the rhythm of the universe. As years pass, you realise these places are destroyed on a daily basis, where the people in power feel they have the privilege of overwriting what has been of necessary importance for the world being where it is. We are slowly being destroyed. Not by anything we could not control, but by ourselves. Will we take action to change, or will accept, that now this is our reality?

#FreeFromGas #GatacaGazul Guerrilla Projections- Mediaş (Romgaz HQ), Romania
In the middle of a rainy summer night in Medias, Romania, a group of climate activists from Gastivists Romania and Fridays For Future Romania beamed protest slogans like “No More Gas” and “Black Sea + Romgaz = Dead Sea” onto the headquarters of Romgaz, the largest fossil gas extraction company in the country. The action denounced the company’s shortsighted and destructive efforts to explore and drill for more fossil gas in the Black Sea, and in particular, the proposed Neptun Deep project, which the company and the national government justify as being necessary to reduce Russian gas imports. The activists demanded that Romgaz admit that the fossil fuel era has come to end and stressed that all gas extraction fuels climate chaos, war, and militarization. They also expressed solidarity with the gas industry workers, underscoring that Romgaz has the moral responsibility to ensure that its workers transition into truly sustainable and green jobs of the future.

The Artivist Network carried out a guerrilla projection action near the Budapest Parliament to demand a future #FreeFromGas one week ahead of the European Parliament plenary session on EU taxonomy.

They stand in solidarity with Ukraine and people around the world who are being devastated by Europe's fossil fuel addiction.

#FreeFromGas Guerrilla Projection- Warsaw (Copernicus Center of Science), Poland.
The Bombelki Collective, with visuals designed by the Tajny Projekt, projected onto the Copernicus Centre of Science along the banks of the Vistula River. The action protested the Polish gas transmission system operator, Gaz-System, and its plans to install a floating LNG terminal in the Port of Gdansk. The activists used Warsaw’s famous science museum as a backdrop to highlight the stark contrast between climate science and the shortsighted business interests of Gaz-System. The action focused on how new LNG infrastructure would lock Poland into decades of more methane and carbon dioxide emissions and divert much-needed resources from a truly just and green energy transition for Poland. The activists also sought to expose the false industry narrative that gas is a cheap and stable fuel source for the Polish people and how corporations such as Gaz System cause suffering and death: crimes which are considered a side-product of their business model. They also stand in solidarity with Ukraine, higlighting that gas is a geopolitical instrument. The current energy crisis and Putin’s war in Ukraine have demonstrated just how vulnerable gas is to the volatility of global fossil-fuel markets and geopolitical conflict.

#FreeFromGas Guerrilla Projection, Gastech Confrence, Italy- Milan.
Gastech: We invest in death Extinction Rebellion and Scientist Rebellion Italy carried out an enormous "guerrilla" projection on the venue of the 2022 Gastech Conference in Milan, exposing the destructive consequences of this criminal industry. Fossil gas is just another dirty fossil fuel that emits CO2 when burnt and leaks methane (a super potent greenhouse gas) all along its supply chain. As the climate crisis intensifies, any new gas investments are investments in death and destruction. #CleanGasIsADirtyLie! Companies like BP, Shell, and ENI are making billions in profits off of an #EnergyCrisis they helped create, cashing out on the war in Ukraine and financing dictatorships worldwide. The salaries of their CEOs are paid for by consumers whose utility bills are strangling them. We won't be fooled by events like Gastech. THE GAS ERA MUST END! Now is the time to accelerate the transition away from ALL fossil fuels and radically scale up decentralized renewable energy, electrification, and energy efficiency across Europe.

#FreeFromGas Guerrilla Projections: Berlin (Gas-fuelled Plant, operated by Vattenfall) Germany
In the last week of August 2022, climate activists from Gas Exit projected onto the gas-fuelled plant in Berlin which is operated by Vattenfall. The action denounced how energy companies like Vattenfall fail to provide a realistic plan for integrating the plant into a truly renewable heat supply. The activists demanded that Vattenfall admit that radical restructuring of the heat supply in Berlin and other European cities is a must. They also emphasized that generating heat from renewables and dismantling fossil infrastructure must be at the core of any strategy toward that goal.

#StopMidcat: As part of the #FreeFromGas campaign, Xarxa per la Justícia Climàtica carried out a projection action in Girona on the 14th of October, 2022i In the framework of the international #RecuperemElFutur meeting, The activists projected a gas pipeline onto the Cathedral of Girona to warn of the danger of possible reactivation of the Midcat Pipeline. They denounce that the pipeline does not serve to guarantee #energysecurity and that its construction implies the destruction of the territory and biodiversity. The action was carried out a week after the Spanish-German summit attended by Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz. The summit was intended to achieve an agreement to invest in this mega-pipeline; and in the framework of the meeting of movements for #climatejustice #RecuperemElFutur, local residents were calling for investment in medium and long-term solutions inside the framework of a real energy transition that responds to the climate crisis. Members of the Xarxa per la Justícia Climàtica will continue mobilizing until a just energy transition is achieved, and announced future actions as long as the idea of building any other gas infrastructure remains on the table.

Toxic Bonds: 2024 Forecast
Let's talk about bonds, dirty bonds. But what are bonds? #ToxicBonds are fossil fuel bonds - the loans issued to fossil fuel companies that give more than half the cash they need to keep on mining, fracking, extracting, polluting, destroying, and wrecking, our lovely little planet. This is a big deal -Seriously, how’d we miss this - just thirty coal, oil and gas companies - also known as “the dirty 30 - will have 288 billion euros worth of fossil bonds mature before the end of 2025. Scary, right? We thought we were trying to phase out fossil fuels….. Dozens of new bonds will be issued in 2024, and we can no longer let them go unchallenged. When these fossil fuel companies come knocking on the door of banks and lenders asking for another round of cash to fund another round of fossil fuel expansion, we need to be ready. Let's organize to show up at the doors of these banks and financial institutions and make it clear that their days of quietly funding climate catastrophe are over. Want to help take down these climate criminals? And maybe have a bit of fun while we do it. Well, we do too…. Check out the links below to find out more about the murky underworld of fossil fuel bonds, and a few creative tactics we can use to crash their little petro-party.
