Yesterday on fallow land I saw plants that once buzzed with bees & insects before 2000… now silent. Pesticides didn’t just kill pests. They wiped out the pollinators that keep us alive. No bees = no food security. This is environmental terrorism by design.

Absolutely marvellous to wake up this morning to this fantastic and unexpected news I think I can just hear the Amazon Rainforest breathing a small sigh of relief too www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cm...

If you own a fridge, drive a car, fly on a plane, take a pill for pain, use a phone, watch TV, do anything that science has made safe and possible you can’t decide that climate science is in a different category. Selective belief in science is pushed by people who profit from deadly fossil fuels.

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.

2 down, 3 to go 🇷🇸 Serbia — Vucic lost 🇧🇷 Brazil — Bolsonaro lost 🇮🇱 Israel — 27 Oct 🇧🇬 Bulgaria — 1 Nov 🇺🇸 USA — 3 Nov

Buried on page 30 of Sir David Bellend's report into antisemitism in schools in the UK it explicitly says there hasn't been a rise in antisemitism, only in anti-Israel sentiment The conflation of antisemitism with anti-Israel sentiment is intentional, and frankly sickening.

@mark-carney.bsky.social Israel would like to thank weak Western leaders for their silence.

Left- Young Palestinian boy soon after he was shot by an Israeli sniper as he is falling to the ground. Right- Dead Palestinian baby held by his brother. The pure evil of Israel, the U.S., the UK, Germany, etc. in supporting and being complicit in this GENOCIDAl is appalling!

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Bravo Kevin Maguire!

Definitely this 👇👇👇

This is exactly the point that needs to be made. A healthy society relies on everyone being able to afford the necessities and also have money for the things that enhance quality of life. It’s not healthy when the richest have more than they can spend in 1000 lifetimes and others can’t eat.

Human greed plays a role in EVERY climate catastrophe. Not "natural disasters" - human choices. 🌍 #ClimateJustice

Naomi Klein proving that Piers Morgan is pro-fascist!! youtu.be/SMFQBQx-qSU?...

Greta Thunberg comes out to support Lula "If Bolsonaro wins, it will be a disaster for the entire planet... Latin America is not for sale. The eyes of the world are on you Brazil, we are counting on you."

We had such outrage for one building burning down. But silence when Google illegally chops down an entire forest. Even though that has done far more harm.

Google plans to bulldoze a wildlife haven in Essex – home to rare species – for a data centre. Sign the petition now to help save it before it’s gone forever 🐝🦋 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/sa...

Capitalism is great at making more. Terrible at knowing when to stop. Infinite growth on a finite planet is a physical impossibility.

Muslims and immigrants, despite all the lies we're told about them, have never presented a systemic threat to Western security, let alone to "Western civilisation". Instead, the threats come from our governments, especially in the US, and their grim alliances with capital and overseas dictators.

Burnham was Labour's last chance at plausibly being anything other than continuity Thacherism. The same bankrupt ideology that privatised water, outsourced the NHS, created the housing crisis and much more. They have no answers and can't ever pretend to from now on.

Billionaires will still have money on a dead planet. The rest of us won’t have a planet. #ClimateJustice

Andy Burnham has traded our future for Jackdaw Gas Field. Stand with Carla Denyer and the Green Party: only a transition to renewables can save our climate and economy.

“A company profiting from such grave human rights abuses should have no role in our health system or wider public sector.”

A green light for the Jackdaw gas field isn't the end of the matter Far from it Now we must make sure that the much worse Rosebank oil field doesn't see the light of day Please listen to my @stopcambo.bsky.social call to @andyburnham.bsky.social to leave the Rosebank oil in the ground

The Lakota language does not contain nouns but it does contain the verb "wacan", meaning “to consciously apply mystery to everything”. In other words, the opposite of what we've been doing in the rest of the West since the Enlightenment. Time to wacan again.

Good morning from the heart of Africa. I cross villages on foot in the rain and under tropical heat with no salary and no organization behind me,because the Congo rainforest still breathes for all of us. It stores vast carbon, shelters over 10,000 plant species.

Every means of corruption and manipulation is being used to keep the orange horror with the power to trash democracy, nature and the earth. If voting machines are not scrutinised for accuracy elections are defunct. People, please check your votes! And make sure every blue voter does the same.

"Green energy isn't perfect." Nothing is. But it's a hell of a lot better than a planet that's uninhabitable. Progress, not perfection.

#FOTW Daily Post 20 As well as the atmosphere and oceans, a changing climate can wake the solid Earth When ice melted after the last ice age, the pressure release triggered quakes and eruptions. The ground responds to what we do to the sky Pls share + tag 2 #FateOfTheWorld

Terrorists are people who bomb people and blow people up.” “They are not people who break Into a missile manufacturers to stop the production of weapons, that blow people up!!” youtube.com/shorts/5ufaJ...

If you think that stockpiling food will get us out of this, think again. We need to drastically and immediately reduce all fossil fuel use, and even that may be too late. We may be clever as a species but we’re not wise.

#FOTW Daily Post 19 1.5°C equates to key tipping points such as the loss of the Greenland Ice Sheet that, once crossed, won't reverse on any human timescale. 1.5°C isn't a slogan. It's a set of one-way doors to a different world And it's now shut behind us Pls share + tag 2 #FateOfTheWorld

This is our extraordinary 🌎 Why are we destroying our oceans ? killing whales? #ClimateCrisis #Metacrisis #WarOnNature
