After a summer of record-breaking temps and four heatwaves, the Met Office confirms human activity made this 70x more likely.

🚨This isn’t history. It’s a plan for our future.

Amnesty UK has exposed powerful & well-funded groups that are working to stop women, LGBTI+ people & children making decisions over our bodies, health & futures.
