Campaigners demand polluters pay for extreme weather damage

Original: # Polluters broke it. We’re paying for it. Make Polluters Pay # Extreme # weather events are causing widespread # destru

Climate campaigners are pushing a 'Make Polluters Pay' message, arguing that extreme weather events are causing widespread destruction and financial hardship while the biggest polluting companies continue to profit. The argument is that ordinary people bear the costs of floods, storms and other disasters linked to climate change, and that the companies most responsible should be made to cover the damage instead.

Why now: Ongoing extreme weather events are renewing calls to hold major polluters financially responsible for climate damage.
