Last week, at the São Paulo State Assembly (ALESP), we presented Cap&Share to Eduardo Suplicy and his team — a model that connects climate policy and basic income. 🌍

Social and climate justice can (and should) go hand in hand. Thank you to Suplicy and his team for the warm welcome!

We’ve kicked off community engagements for the Climate Commons Fund (CCF) in Il Ngwesi, Kenya.
The community sees CCF as a way to:
Lead in conservation & decision-making
Receive direct support to meet basic needs

Community-led conservation + UBI = a win for people & planet

🌎 Breaking down Cap & Share – Part 4️⃣ : The Share 💰

✅ Dividends from the Global Commons Fund (GCF) are paid to all citizens of the world as a Universal Basic Income
✅ This could eliminate global poverty by 2050 and help individuals deal with the costs of the climate crisis

Breaking down #CapAndShare! Part 3⃣ - The Fund:

✅ A democratically operated Global Commons Fund (GCF) with money raised from the charge
✅ The GCF would invest in a green, just transition & build sustainable, intergenerational wealth
✅ At least $1 trillion annually to climate grants
April 8, 2025 at 7:14 AM
Breaking down #CapAndShare! Part 2 - The Charge:

✅ Fossil fuel companies pay a charge for every tonne of CO2 equivalent they extract
✅ Our models includes a cap at 2022 extraction rates & a charge of $135 per tonne
✅ This delivers just under $5 trillion in its first year 💰

Breaking down Cap & Share!

Part 1: The Cap
✅ A strict, declining limit on fossil fuel extraction until we hit zero
