This campaign seeks to contribute to challenging the corporate capture of Just Transition, which imposes false climate ‘solutions,’ resource grabs, and neoliberal trade regimes that reinforce colonial exploitation and fuel injustices and rights abuses across the Global South.
At its core, the campaign seeks to advance Real Solutions rooted in the leadership and struggles of workers, peasants, Indigenous Peoples, women, and youth, allowing them to reclaim power from corporate control over their lands, waters, forests, and lives and to shape a transition—and thereby a future—that is genuinely powered by the peoples.
These are just some global moments where we are coming together to amplify our demands for Real Solutions. For a more detailed calendar of upcoming activities, check out the lineup below!

This briefing paper outlines the need for an international campaign to halt the financing of false solutions to climate change by bilateral, multilateral and international development funds, including United Nations agencies. Climate finance must support real solutions to the climate crisis that recognise historical responsibility, a common but differentiated response, and the rights and traditional knowledge and wisdom of Indigenous Peoples, women in all their diversities, and local communities.

Year after year, climate negotiations have been steered less by science and justice than by corporate power. At COP28, the number of fossil fuel lobbyists jumped 400% from the previous year. They didn’t just attend — they shaped the agenda, pushing carbon markets, risky geoengineering, and “nature-based” schemes that displace Indigenous Peoples and sideline the urgent, rights-based measures needed to phase out fossil fuels.
This comic seeks to expose how powerful corporate actors undermine climate action and highlight the real, community-led solutions already in motion.
