The climate crisis is a queer issue too, activists say
Queer environmental activists warn of LGBTQ+ people ‘suffering first’ from catastrophic climate change. Fi Quekett, a queer climate justice activist, has been campaigning for Fossil Free Pride in Leeds and has been involved in the #StopRosebank and Axe Drax campaigns, which are focused on fighting what they see as “new and existing climate-wrecking projects” in the UK.
The climate crisis will disproportionately impact those who have been made most vulnerable by the systemic injustices in our society, and that includes the LGBTQ+ community. These injustices manifest in factors such as lack of access to safe and affordable housing, healthcare and employment – all of which are exacerbated by extreme weather events – displacement and food and water insecurity that result from climate breakdown. - Fi Quekett
Homelessness, poverty and discrimination can be compounded by extreme weather events, and limit people’s access to resources such as air-conditioning and flood insurance, while climate change could adversely affect food prices too, Quekett said. These issues are more prevalent within queer communities, with research into the ‘LGBTQ+ pay gap’ previously finding queer people are paid, on average, 16 per cent less than their straight peers, while other studies revealed that LGBTQ+ youth are 120 per cent more likely to experience homelessness than their cisgender, heterosexual counterparts.

Hey fellow UK people:
Here is a petition you can sign against the proposed extraction of the Rosebank oil field in the North Sea, and which the Tories want to not merely permit, but also fund from taxpayers’ money. Which for obvious reasons would be a really fricking awful thing.

Stop Rosebank oil field
Why do we need to stop this? Scientists could not be any clearer if we want to sustain a liveable planet we have to stop using fossil fuels this is the exact opposite of reducing our fossil fuel use.
The stop Rosebank websites has links to stuff you can do:
Quick and easy stuff:
-sign the petiton
-contact your local mp
-contact equinor (owner of Rosebank)
-spread the word on social media and irl
Not as easy stuff:
-join in on action or protest (either online or in person)
-order some stickers and stick them up in your area (they're free!)
Don't let big companies profit of our dying planet

Contrary to what Rishi Sunak suggests, the huge Rosebank oil field will: 🔥 Fuel the climate crisis, ❌ Do nothing for energy bills or energy security.
