How much longer will the BBC, ITV, Sky, C4 and C5 hide AMOC collapse from the British people?

Campaigners were at City Hall today to demand London Assembly members start planning for the UK being plunged into a far colder, drier climate which would decimate agriculture. 🧵

The planet is on the brink of an irreversible climate disaster, but we’ve run out of time to discuss that I’m afraid.

Kindess defeats evil every time.
“I have seen that it is not man who is impotent in the struggle against evil, but the power of evil that is impotent in the struggle against man. The powerlessness of kindness, of senseless kindness, is the secret of its immortality. It can never by conquered. The more stupid, the more senseless, the more helpless it may seem, the vaster it is. Evil is impotent before it. The prophets, religious teachers, reformers, social and political leaders are impotent before it. This dumb, blind love is man’s meaning. Human history is not the battle of good struggling to overcome evil. It is a battle fought by a great evil, struggling to crush a small kernel of human kindness. But if what is human in human beings has not been destroyed even now, then evil will never conquer.”

On rare occasion there’s an accurate headline about rapid climate warming
and it’s always jarring as hell
and a reminder how much we’re being lied to on a daily basis.

Experts feared it would take 193 years to reduce London's deadly levels of NO₂ air pollution to legal levels.

This week Mayor Sadiq Khan announced his team had defied the howls of pro-fossil fuel and motoring lobbyists to achieve the life-saving target in just 9 YEARS.

Here's how they did it 🧵

Now we know why 6 billion sea stars in the Pacific turned to slime, and, as one can surmise, it's likely that global warming and ocean heatwaves played a big role. If we kill the oceans, things will NOT go well for us.

Uruguay proves renewable energy isn’t a dream — it’s a choice.

And it’s entirely doable — if politicians have the guts.

A humble professor called Ramón Méndez Galain showed the so-called leaders of Europe and the US how it can be done. 🧵

Assata also loved nature 💚

They called her the most dangerous woman in America.

Black Panther.

Tupac’s godmother.

Political prisoner.

Jailbreak while 8 months pregnant.

Obama’s FBI put her on the Most Wanted list but couldn’t get her.

She just passed in exile in Cuba.

This is Assata Shakur in her own words. 🧵

Govt should offer all workers in polluting industries transition to a green career. They’re crying out for it.

Despicable propagandists in the billionaire media howl that oil + gas workers hate action to tackle the climate crisis.

But a major new survey shows that UK fossil fuel staff are DONE with their dying industry.

They want out — and they want a worker-led #JustTransition to another world🧵
Is the fossil fuel industry nearing it's end?

The ad industry has a dirty little secret. Well, actually, it's not little at all.

🌏 💰 Fossil fuels are responsible for 75% of carbon pollution, but less than 1% of global marketing spend.

November 17, 1938. 50,000 devotees of “Western civilisation,” “traditional family values,” “positive Christianity” (the official religion of German N*zism) and rabid anti-communism gathered to mourn the assassinated German diplomat Ernst vom Rath.

Reeves: "This extra runway at Gatwick will mean lower costs for a family holiday."

More happy holidays while you help burn your children's future, thanks to the lunatic UK government which is in hock to #fossilfuel lobbyists

Great story by my colleagues on the constant political realignment of Grok, the generative AI chatbot over on the other site.

This change to Grok’s answer about the greatest threat to Western civilization is particularly ironic/meta.

Grok used to say that misinformation and disinformation were greatest threat to Western civilization. Elon Musk changed the answer to something more in line with his personal views: “demographic collapse.”

"Zack Polanski described a second Gatwick runway as a “disaster”. “Ignores basic climate science and risks undermining efforts to tackle the climate crisis.

“Labour keeps wheeling out the same nonsense about growth, but at what cost?”
