Is KKKRowling sponsoring the conference?

The wrong decisions on Rosebank, Heathrow expansion, heat pumps and EV targets would result in getting on for half a billion extra tonnes of CO2 being added to the atmosphere Truly insane as drought, wildfire, storm and flood continue to hammer the UK www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Teenagers in Texas dressing as the KKK for Halloween and shouting the N word at black people. This is the racist hellhole that people like Trump and his MAGA scum encourage

Why are the people who accuse those talking about reversing Brexit of "living in the past" never asked about their own plans to rip up an international agreement that was first signed by the UK some 75 years ago?

UK ministers had plenty of time for AI datacenter bosses, but none for environmental groups

It's not just about climate chaos. It's also about landscape chaos. The damage we do to the land's hydrology is layered on top of the damage we do to the atmosphere. Our mismanagement of land commits us to a cycle of flood and drought. We can change this, as explained here. Please read. Thanks.

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

Planting a tree means nothing if it dies a week later. Local authority tree planting is down 45%, and the trees we do plant are heavily imported, bringing biosecurity risks with them. @nationaltrust.org.uk #EcoSky #TreePlanting #GrownInBritain

What is the BBC's justification for maintaining this level of coverage of Reform now it has slipped into third place?

BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

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.

Growth that kills its host isn’t growth. It’s cancer with good PR.

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

Brazil and Serbia, defying rise the tide of autocracy. This is how we do it, everywhere. 🌈

You can't clean up plastic once it's in the ocean You can't suck up fossil carbon once it's in the atmosphere You can't (quickly) regrow a forest once you've destroyed it Destruction needs to be addressed at source. It makes no sense to just damage everything and try to fix it afterwards

Your 'doom quote' for today: "It’s extraordinary to realise that we are witnessing the great unravelling; the beginning of the end of things. I honestly never thought I’d live to see the start of what sometimes feels like the apocalypse." www.climatecodered.org/2023/06/what...

Jackdaw: a decision for last century. climateuncensored.com/jackdaw-a-de... A hastily drafted post following the UK Govt’s decision to approve further drilling & production at the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea. Please excuse typos, non-sequiturs, etc - I wanted to get the post online today.

This was once a forest in Finland of more than 250,000 trees. Google chopped it down illegally to build another one of their AI Monstrosities. The sooner they are all bankrupt the better.

"Opening any new North Sea oil and gas fields is incompatible with achieving the Paris Climate Agreement goals of limiting warming to 1.5°C or holding warming to “well below 2°C” relative to preindustrial" #Jackdaw #Rosebank

I’ve never trusted this shitweasel.

Within days of announcing the opening up of a new gas field.

Whenever someone says that electricity is expensive because of decarbonisation, there are only two possibilities Either they are knowingly lying to you Or they are the victims of disinformation, and have been fooled by someone who was lying to them

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

As expected, the Godzilla El Niño is increasing outgoing longwave radiation as the planet heats up, temporarily reducing the Earth Energy Imbalance. In other words, over the past 12 months the Earth has been heating at an average rate of about 1.15 million Hiroshimas per Day.

Last month was the 2nd hottest September on record for our planet. The last couple of years have been exceptionally warm considering the historical record. 📈 This data is using NOAAGlobalTempv6.1.0: www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/lan...

50,391 heat-related deaths across 854 European cities in one summer. Of these, 32,619 were attributed to the extra heat caused by burning coal, oil and gas. Now tell me climate action isn’t essential... www.independent.co.uk/news/arctic-...

Just 2 days after telling us they're committed to making the crisis worse by greenlighting more fossil fuel extraction, the government is now telling us it's our responsibility to prepare for the impacts of the climate breakdown that's already upon us A shameful abdication of responsibility

The Amazon is shifting from carbon sink to carbon source. 15 yrs of CO2 data show that fires are the dominant carbon source and now outpace forest uptake. Deforestation is driving the damage, amplified by drought and El Niño. Protecting forests is climate action. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The government didn’t just approve Jackdaw, they also reiterated their support for so-called tiebacks - a dodge to allow yet more new drilling without new licenses. This deserves almost as much scrutiny as Jackdaw and has got barely any of it, so I raised it in the Chamber.

Currently wondering what message the UK govt thought it was sending by dressing up the Minister for Net Zero in a literal Shell logo.

If this death toll was the result of a terrorist attack, the world would be up in arms And remember, this is not the new normal From the perspective of 2100, or even 2050, the summer of 2026 will be one of the coolest www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The Jackdaw decision could haunt the UK at future climate summits Although the announcement that the UK government is going ahead with the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea was anticipated, it has generated a wave of criticism from around the world. This will have significant implications for the…

In connection to coming climate breakdown I have been warning of the need for this for years But it will take a lot more than advising on personal actions We will need to be on a government-led 'war' footing to even begin to tackle what's coming www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

#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

The 60th anniversary of the Aberfan catastrophe reminded me of the Italian Vajont dam disaster 3 years earlier, which obliterated the town of Longarone killing more than 2,000 I made a radio programme about it and interviewed survivors You can listen here www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

What are they going to privatise next? The roads we drive on? YES, and the government pumps public money into it too After privatising the Lower Thames Crossing, the government is also privatising the Dartford Crossings Demand the National Audit Office investigate this: vist.ly/5hdn6

In the ongoing climate-change-denial adjacent coverage of the Guardian, here is the equivalent of the "this is fine" meme Truly incredible how off the editorial line has become in recent years...

Global emissions slow — but world hurtles towards 2 °C of warming “The world can no longer avoid overshooting the 1.5 °C limit, and the consequences are already devastating,” www.nature.com/articles/d41...
