Als je het nog niet gezien hebt: kijk Het Geweten van Israël terug, de indringende docu van @nadiamoussaid.bsky.social over Palestijns en Israëlisch verzet tegen de genocide in Gaza, in een samenleving die steeds dieper wegzakt in morele apathie en radicalisme.

"Since the April election, federal officials have recorded more than 220 meetings with oil and gas lobbyists — more meetings than days. The immense lobbying push was reflected in the federal budget, and continues to shape federal priorities."

Did the climate world misread Carney?
Many in the climate movement saw a fellow traveller in Mark Carney — the man who could preach climate action in the language of finance — but what if they were wrong from the very start?
