Blair says net zero is "doomed to fail" – but to abandon a rapid green transition away from fossil fuels is to sentence millions to certain death . And he knows it .

Here is Earth's rotation realized in an unusual way: using a camera scanning the landscape of Tivoli, Namibia, Bartosz Wojczyński focused on the sky.
He created a timelapse spanning 24 h that has a focal point in the sky rather than on the ground.

I don't want the Water Companies to be bailed out, I want their bosses to be jailed and their companies repossessed.
I don't want Public Services to be cut, I want billionaires to be taxed.
I'm not interested in the growth of the richest 1%, I want that money to go to the 99%.

Contrast that with Donald Trump's most current approval rating which is around 48%

We're shocked by Trump and Musk's antics because we judge them against the idea that governments should serve the people. But they have no such intention. Government for them is simply about seizing power and wealth.
Let's stop being shocked, and build a global, democratic counter-movement.

And yes, a 10-year-old really did write this piece.
It went through an editor, of course, but this really is the power of citizen journalism- giving a voice to all. We do have a lot of students write… but of course 10 is exceptional.

A 10-year-old has a better plan for stopping plastic pollution than most politicians.
Amaya Edwards discovered an Australian scheme that’s keeping rivers and oceans clean. So why hasn’t the UK adopted it?

This simple solution stops pollution going into the sea
Amaya Edwards, 10, asks: If Australia can stop tonnes of plastic reaching the ocean, why isn’t the UK doing it?

One of the most extraordinary things about this influence operation by Putin's mafia state is the way it all played out in pretty much plain view, even after the polonium poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko in London.
The Kremlin assumed the Tory government would turn a blind eye - & indeed it did.
