Agro-Industrialization has severely exposed local vulnerable homes to agro-contaminated water.It led to acute diseases as cancer&genetic mutation due to radiation from some agrochemical.
So agrochemical pollution is another crisis worthy urgent action

No climate justice in a failed system.
Youths still have a role to resist,reclaim&raise up against capitalistic economic system which perpetuates biodiversity& ecological collapse.
It is measurable on intensity of wetlands ruin,water,air pollution,leasing of natural resources

Much more is involved than just the impact of more-and-more travel on individual places.

More fundamental is the impact of that on the climate and -though the infrastructural development & resources involved - on many ecosystems & communities.

🚨 Private jets = pinnacle of climate injustice

In 2023, they caused more emissions than all flights from Heathrow. And the US has particularly dirty hands: Florida & Texas alone outpolluted the entire EU 💀

We need to #BanPrivateJets now. Taxing them is the bare minimum.
☁️🛩️☁️The ICCT has developed the first global mapping of private jet air and climate pollution.

The data reveal that private jets emitted more greenhouse gases than from all flights departing London Heathrow Airport in 2023.

The weird thing is that this is yet another claim by politicians where no actual reason needs to be given anymore.

Why does air travel "have to be" cheap? Most people actually never fly.

And why does rail travel not "have to be cheap"?

✈️🌙 Congrats to @galba.uk for the win against Leeds Bradford Airport’s proposal to allow noisier night flights.

We need to press on for further limits on aviation for healthy communities and a climate-just future.

#RedLinesForAirports #BanNightFlights
Good news from GALBA! We've stopped Leeds Bradford Airport from flying an unlimited number of planes at night. We won the Public Inquiry into their attempt to reinterpret the local night flight rules. It doesn't mean the end of night flights but it will limit them.
