    Ten years ago, countries agreed to phase down HFCs, powerful greenhouse gases used in refrigeration. Yet, no major Canadian supermarket assessed by EIA received a passing grade on climate-friendly alternatives. Read why action is urgent @NatRef

    EIA’s @avipsa_m : "The supermarket sector consumes a massive amount of HFCs in large, leak-prone equipment. Despite alternatives having been widely available for years, some of Canada’s largest supermarket companies continue to rely heavily on these superpollutants."

    EIA and our Congolese and international partners have repeatedly raised concerns about pollution impacting the community of Manomapia. Now, the world's largest cobalt producer is telling the community to prepare to leave. Communities deserve a healthy environment.

    Nous lançons une alerte publique face au risque annoncé de rupture d’un des bassins TSF 5, TSF 3 de rétention de Tenke Fungurume Mining (TFM) situés à Kibalasani. Nous exigeons que TFM sécurise immédiatement son bassin, avec un calendrier public de travaux, au lieu de demander aux populations de fuir lorsqu’elle voit les eaux polluantes arriver, et que le Gouvernement l’y contraigne par une inspection indépendante et des sanctions en cas de manquement.

    This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we’re learning from the Chickaloon Native Village’s work to restore fish habitat and protect salmon runs. Healthy rivers upstream help sustain endangered Cook Inlet belugas downstream.

    3 belugas were found dead in Cook Inlet. Every death matters for this critically endangered population. Necropsies & research need sustained federal support so we can better assess beluga whale health & understand why they are struggling to recover.

    EIA applauds Dutch authorities’ seizure of 375+ tonnes of suspected illegal azobé timber from Gabon. With new EUDR rules from Dec. 30, Gabon must roll out the SNTBG timber traceability system, developed with EIA’s support, to track timber to its origin.

    New research confirms what EIA and PremiCongo documented in our Toxic Transition investigation: @resourmatters & Mazingira Pour Tous found SO₂ levels up to 3.7X the WHO threshold at TFM’s 30K plant, alongside respiratory & eye symptoms in Manomapia, DRC.

    This #WorldOzoneDay, we celebrate nearly 40 years of the Montreal Protocol and 10 years of its Kigali Amendment, showing how sustained global cooperation can protect the ozone layer and the climate, but requires continued vigilance and action to prevent the related illegal trade.

    5 years. 4 investigations. 1 landmark Constitutional Court ruling. 1 new unprecedented law. Watch how EIA and @Dejusticia’s joint work on Colombia's cattle supply chains became Colombia's first mandatory deforestation-free cattle traceability law.

    Los salvoconductos decían que la madera provenía de bosques aprovechados. Los satélites mostraron estos bosques aún en pie. El análisis NDFI ofrece a periodistas y autoridades en Colombia una poderosa herramienta para verificar registros oficiales y detectar delitos forestales 👇

    Transport permits said the timber came from logged forests. Satellites showed those forests still standing. NDFI analysis offers a powerful tool for journalists & law enforcement in Colombia to verify official records and detect forest crimes. Read the story below 👇

    EIA has been working with Code4Nature and our Liberian civil society partners LICSATDUN, CS-IFM, and MFGAP to develop and implement a transparent traceability system to track chainsaw milled timber from community forests to domestic markets in the nation’s capital, Monrovia.

    This work shows how a simple mobile app can bring effective transparency and traceability, even in remote environments. Systems like these are an essential step towards bringing inclusive forest governance to empower local communities to manage their precious forest resources.
