No Climate Justice without Palestinian Liberation

For nearly two years, Israel has waged a livestreamed genocide against Indigenous Palestinians in Gaza and across historic Palestine, devastating lives, land, and ecosystems. UN experts have described Israel’s crimes as including domicide, urbicide, scholasticide, medicide, cultural genocide and ecocide. In September 2025, the UN Commission of Inquiry confirmed that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza

This genocide is inseparable from environmental destruction:

  • Over 100,000 tons of bombs dropped, with a carbon footprint greater than the annual emissions of many countries.
  • Widespread contamination of soil and water with depleted uranium, white phosphorus, and heavy metals.
  • 80% of Gaza’s cropland destroyed, creating famine and long-term ecological collapse.

This genocide is built in 77 years of settler-colonialism, ethnic cleansing, apartheid and illegal occupation, which Israel has been allowed to perpetrate against our people through the complicity of states and corporations. Ending complicity is the first duty of solidarity

Energy, water, and agribusiness corporations are complicit—supplying fuel, coal, and technologies that enable Israel’s war machine, settlements, and apartheid system that enable Israel’s war machine, illegal occupation,, and apartheid system, are central in this chain of complicity.
