Tacloban City, 8 Nov 2023<\/em>–Greenpeace today joined communities in Tacloban City and around the world in calling for reparations from fossil fuel companies for the impacts of the climate crisis. The call was made in commemoration of the 10th year anniversary of Super Typhoon Yolanda, the most powerful and most destructive storm to make landfall in the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe impacts of Super Typhoon Yolanda were horrific, and it marks a turning point in our collective history as a Filipino people–a shared experience of pain and suffering that no community should ever have to go through,\u201d said Greenpeace campaigner Jefferson Chua, speaking from the Rainbow Warrior, the Greenpeace ship that is currently docked in Tacloban.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cTen years after, Filipinos still shoulder the burden of financial and human costs for climate disasters. This colossal injustice to communities needs to stop. The Philippine government must support communities and their call for climate justice and demand reparations from coal, oil and gas companies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Greenpeace reiterates their demands: <\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Fossil fuel companies must:\n
      \n
    1. acknowledge their disproportionate role in historical carbon emissions and commit to a just transition away from fossil fuels; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. stop all fossil fuel expansion; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. pay up for the economic and non-economic losses and damages caused by climate impacts<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
        \n
      1. The Philippine government must:\n
          \n
        1. demand payment for loss and damages from fossil fuel companies and rich nations alike <\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. call for and commit to a just transition away from fossil fuels<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
