Fellow murderers - when it comes to your or your child's stomach being empty, you will kill. As wildlife starves and encroaches on our diminishing agriculture/water resources, we will kill, be in no doubt. The next step will be starving human strangers ... you wanna bet? 🎰
'In late Sept, villagers noticed the 5.5 ton-tusker (5,500 kg) was limping, and a closer look reveled a gunshot wound on his right leg. Despite the intervention of vets, the elephant died on October 16. Sri Lanka records the highest number of elephant deaths annually…' www.dw.com/en/sri-lanka...

So, fellow murderers ... livestock deaths. Will we ever know the wildlife deaths and the lasting impact on survival for wild species? Death World.

Read and weep.
Leon Simons responds to UN: “We cannot return to lower temperatures with only emission reductions and carbon capture and storage. Anyone who claims that is grossly negligent. Misrepresention of inconveniet truths in order to give people false hope is very dangerous.” x.com/LeonSimons8/...
How do you feel about this, fellow murderers? And don't delude yourself you ain't part of the murdering - you're Homo sapiens, aren't you? Jeez, you're part of a species that can murder its own members on an industrial scale and keep bureaucratic records. 🧮
'Mexico has weakened protections for the critically endangered vaquita porpoise, opening vast new areas in the Upper Gulf of California to the deadly gillnet fishing… Scientists estimate that only about 10 vaquitas remain, down from nearly 600 animals in 1997.' eia-international.org/news/critica...
Going ... going ... gone. But that's Death World, fellow murderers,
'Loss of a rare lake reveals how warming has hit Canadian Arctic’s ‘planetary fridge’. Canada’s last known epishelf lake, at Milne Fjord on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, is gone. The lake drained out to sea after Milne Ice Shelf calved in 2020, & it won’t return' news.mongabay.com/2026/10/loss...
Fellow murderers. Rest assured that we are at least consistent in our actions albeit that they are murderous. I will dare to reassure you that we will stay consistent. Yes, the many dark colours, the vale of tears, of our magnus opum, Death World - ⚰️

Report on impact of #PeoplesEmergencyBriefing film. Of 13,000 people surveyed, 87% said watching the film made them more motivated to act. 89% of people said the government should respond to the crisis with emergency-level mobilisation, similar to Covid-19 pandemic or WW2. @nebriefing.bsky.social

Europe didnt just experience an exceptionally hot summer in 2026. It experienced a summer where multiple climate extremes reinforced each other. First - temperature records were broken at daily, monthly and seasonal scales across Europe Read more: climate.copernicus.eu/summer-revie...
"Undoubtedly this event will be severely studied to ascertain the degree to which increasing heat content stored in our oceans helped amplify this event, and hopefully give us a window into future events."
I’ve argued that this El Niño event is likely the most deviant climate event we’ve witnessed. A magnitude I don’t think any climate scientist could have foreseen a year ago, even given our rapidly warming climate. Perhaps a Grey Swan event?
IDK, but this reminds me of the warnings of Environmental Coffee House contributor, Jim Massa, that all that heat stored in the oceans that has saved our arses for so long will, eventually, be released. This grey swan may be the herald of the Angel of Death. @envirocoffeehouse.bsky.social

So, already hottest and two months early aswell. But don't let that put you off planning your holidays and flights! After all life goes on ... until it all starts to creak, crack and collapse.
JUST IN: Today El Niño Broke its Record Hottest Temperature Ever! 🥵 Today the El Niño region surpassed 2015 for the highest temp ever measured in the El Niño (3.4) region. It comes 2 months earlier than typical peak (late Nov/ Dec)…

Most people think Hades is the ruler of the underworld in Greek myth, but, in actual ancient sources, Persephone holds greater prominence and authority. In this post, I argue that she is the underworld's main ruler. #GreekMyth #Hades #Persephone #classics talesoftimesforgotten.com/2026/08/05/i...

Oh, fellow murderers, see, one of the things we do best - bringing death and suffering. It's a wave that's gonna become a tsunami, an unending tsunami, fellow murderers. And the waters will come your way, my way, too.
'…wildfires have killed 12 endangered proboscis monkeys, and left many orangutans with respiratory infections, burn injuries & severe food shortages. …Sumatra, wild elephants are running out of ground… …it’s an immediate, acute animal welfare crisis.' www.thejakartapost.com/opinion/2026...

So, fellow murderers, we carry on murdering ...

Our fear is seeing another face that actually looks like us.
We fear a more powerful intelligence taking our resources, reshaping our world, and eliminating us when we become inconvenient. Wildlife has been living with that intelligence for a very long time. New Substack Essay: The Real Fear: AI Is Like Humans
Listen up - WATER VAPOUR IN ATMOSPHERE ACTS LIKE GREENHOUSE GAS, INCREASES WARMING. But you know it was all going to be incredibly complex and increasingly impossible, didn't you? Didn't you?

Water. Water. None of us are mentally prepared for what's coming (don't kid yourself) - 'But just as you think you are “psychologically prepared”, I don’t think ANY of us are. We are talking about famine, malnutrition, destitution...'. Like waters of the river Cocytus - cold and nothing but weeping.
