Civil Disobedience
Thoreau argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a moral duty to avoid allowing a government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated to write this essay by his disgust with the U.S. system of enslavement and the illegal land grab commonly referred to in the U.S. as the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), and in Mexico as the Intervención Estadounidense en México (U.S. intervention into Mexico).
Climate Action Tracker
The Climate Action Tracker is an independent scientific project that tracks government climate action and measures it against the globally agreed Paris Agreement aim of "holding warming well below 2°C, and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C." A collaboration of two organizations, Climate Analytics and NewClimate Institute, the CAT has been providing this independent analysis to policymakers since 2009.
Climate Analytics
Climate Analytics is a global climate science and policy institute engaged around the world in driving and supporting climate action aligned to the 1.5°C warming limit. Given its funders such the World Bank, it’s reports must be read carefully. For example individual country contributions to global warming are compared without reference to per capital rates. This favors relatively high polluting, low population countries, such as the U.S.
