If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.

If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

36 mining projects got an initial tick for fast-tracking in a single, 3-hour meeting!

The word “environment” only features three times in the 67-pages of minutes of the advisory group’s meetings...

The Fast Track Bill is a disaster for Aotearoa:

Andy Warhol (1928-87)
"Orangutan" screenprint 1983
Warhol chose the orangutan as 1 of 10 animals for his 1983 Endangered Species series. All 3 living species in the genus Pongo are critically endangered: the Bornean Orangutan, Sumatran Orangutan, & Tapanuli Orangutan.

A volunteer at the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation became stuck in mud when risking his safety to move deadly snakes from the riverbank.

An orangutan approached, instinctively offered help.

Sure; here's an article at the Orangutan Foundation about Palm Oil. I first heard about them from author Sir Terry Pratchett, who was supporting them for a long time.
RSPO.org is the Responsibly Sourced Palm Oil program.

Maybe birth rates in reasonably intelligent countries are falling because people don’t want to bring children into a world being run into its own ground by obscenely wealthy, narcissistic, megalomaniacal bastards.
in case you were wondering how things were going over at the other place

Elite Dems - Pelosi, Jeffries, others - attacked and insulted it, put its supporters in a box and marginalized it.

Instead of saying: that’s brilliant! We want THAT. Let’s lead!

Then they wonder: how did the youth vote collapse on us? Why are we perceived as useless?

Look in the mirror!

Well said! Elon Musk is a fascist who cares nought for people or the environment and has zero ethics. I am so tired of his disgusting bullshit over in that shithole. I hope it dies like a dumpster fire!

Agro-industry versus agroecology?

From 2016,Andhra Pradesh has seen the world's largest agroecological transition. A million smallholders have adopted community-managed natural farming - and a new study shows a full transition to it is possible by 2050.

It's so fine to have one child. Or none. It's the best thing you can do for the planet (bar being a selfish greedy dick) and for all the other species being pushed off the planet into extinction so more humans can wake up, go to work, come home, get on the internet, buy stuff, be mean to each other

What a low IQ take. Everyone begins life without children, an experience shared by all. Pregnancy is a life-changing event for a woman—wouldn't it be more helpful to teach how to cope with the fear and uncertainty that often come with it?

Anybody else troubled by msm election analysis pieces that quote corporate lobbyists and consultants for advice to democrats to focus on working people?

Those are the people who prevent economic populism.

Why not quote union and community group leaders?

The system and its media.

The key to not being overwhelmed by huge problems is to find the small actions that you can take.. and take them.
Not only does this help build the solution.
But it has the healthy cleansing effect on the conscience of knowing that you have acted.

What small thing can you do for climate today?
