I am old enough to remember when it was agreed that 2 degrees warming would spell real trouble. And now the boiling frogs are saying an extra degree can be adapted to... This is copium for the Fafocene. It's going to get very fugly quite soon. www.euronews.com/2026/10/27/e...

Farage tying himself in angry knots here ... as he refuses to answer the basic question: Is it racist to call Kemi Badenoch a "Nigerian scammer"?

They knew burning oil was making us sick and heating the planet — but lied to keep doing it. They knew plastic could get into our bodies — but increased plastic production >200X since 1950. There is no question Big Oil CEOs are mass murderers. The question is: Are Big Oil CEOs serial killers?

Rumours has it that Nigel Farage is a traitorous cunt in hock to the Kremlin who'll get his fifteen minutes of fame on Tower Hill. Allegedly.

"Why is UK govt considering a major U-turn on electric vehicle policy that, if followed through, could stall take-up of EVs, close off a route to lower living costs, & dent the UK’s ability to meet its carbon targets?" 94% of drivers are happy with their EV www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The sole survivor of her family… now she is gone too. Eight-year-old Fatima Al-Bayouk lost her entire family to an Israeli strike in 2023. Yesterday, Israeli forces killed her too, south of Deir al-Balah, Gaza. (Ramy Abdu)

It's this simple ...

Insolvency scam The boss of twice-bust business back despite £3m debts. These people gut a company, HMRC and creditors not paid. Then buy assets cheaply from the administrator in pre-packs, and back in business. Gone on for decades. No transparency of administrator dealings. No investigation.

I am now safe after being detained and interrogated by Israeli forces and denied entry to Palestine alongside other activists and elected representatives. I will share a fuller statement tomorrow. The @scottishgreens.org stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine.

Privatisation has failed This Thursday 29th Oct shady Thames Water execs will meet dodgy US hedge funds to agree a £2.4 BILLION bailout that *households will pay for through increased bills* @andyburnham.bsky.social has 3 DAYS to step in and STOP THE BAILOUT, take back Thames Water

Green MSP Kate Nevens and SNP MP Lara Bird have been kidnapped by Israel for trying to enter Palestine. The Prime Minister should be demanding their immediate release.

"...we cannot be confident that temperature decline after #overshoot is achievable within the timescales expected today. Only rapid near-term emission reductions are effective in reducing climate risks."

Almost 600 scientists, ecologists, health professionals and more have called on Andy Burnham to reject the re-submitted application for drilling Rosebank The science is abundantly clear - we cannot open new oil and gas fields. @profbillmcguire.bsky.social

🚨 Andy Burnham must say no to the Rosebank oilfield. 🟢 Instead, he should invest in energy efficiency measures that protect the environment, bring down bills and create good green jobs.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

“Baseload” is increasingly the wrong way to think about electricity. The 21st-century grid isn't about forcing supply to stay constant. It's about matching supply, storage and demand dynamically. The future is flexible, dispatchable & resilient. ⚡🔋👇 evcurvefuturist.com/2026/07/beyo...

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

One person does not want you to see this movie. But everyone else does.

Possibly the first time I've seen Anthropic publicly mention climate change and it's...arse-covering in their public filing 🫠 Also hand-wringing that they won't be able to gobble up enough fossil fuels because all the other AI and data centre companies are also trying to gobble up fossil fuels

The US government operates in the interests of America's fiercest enemy and against the interests of Americans. And against US allies. European nations are now former allies. @carolecadwalla.bsky.social: "Trump is a Russian asset… Putin is one of the only world leaders he’s never fallen out with."

10/ Burning fossil fuels “pollutes the air we breathe and warms the planet”. And climate change “will worsen air quality by increasing the frequency of wildfires and heatwaves”

Electric motors are so much more efficient that internal combustion engines that even on fossil fuel power they still cut emissions substantially. Run them on 100% renewable power & the impact is even greater. Switching to renewables saves money, improves health, environment & climate. 🧪💡🔌☀️💨💧🔋

The prime minister’s new, remote-controlled Jackdaw gasfield will generate less new employment than nine standup comedians going on tour – and is considerably more likely to be hacked This week’s column by Stewart Lee

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

NEW BRIGHT SPOTS: Even on 100% gas power, heat pumps cut emissions by ~48% and EVs by about half. The authors of an “electrification doesn’t cut emissions” paper made a series of compounding mistakes and used misleading assumptions. Here's why. janrosenow.substack.com/p/heat-pumps...

"The report, led by @kevinclimate.bsky.social from the @tyndallcentre.bsky.social, found that wealthy countries such as the #UK, #US and #Australia had until 2034 *to stop all oil and gas production* to give the world a 50% chance of preventing devastating climate breakdown"

Jackdaw gas field is not a jobs plan. It is not an energy bills plan. It is not an energy security plan. And it is certainly not a climate plan. We cannot wean ourselves off fossil fuels by burning more fossil fuels. Read more here:
