Climate change is not just a change in the weather.
It is changing life on our planet.
It is killing people and devastating communities.
To limit global temperature rise, we must phase out coal, oil & gas in a fair & equitable way – and massively boost renewables. #UNGA

Four Filipinos left home to work on British boats.
They came for a better life. They left with life-changing injuries, and little to no compensation. One never made it back.
This is their story — and the little-known dark side of UK fishing.
