Kemi Badenoch blames those crossing borders for our problems. It’s a lie aimed to distract.

The real issue is a system protecting the super-rich while nurses & carers can’t make ends meet. Tax wealth fairly, fund public services properly. This is how we give Britain hope again.

It's not so clear cut. Decreasing exports makes prices rise, which will make efficiency or switching to renewables more profitable. The oil crisis in 1973 basically started efficiency standards for cars, buildings etc...

هند رامي اياد رجب
Hind Rami Iyad Rajab
5 years old

Israeli gunfire

29 January 2024

"I'm so scared, please come," were some of the last words Hind said in a telephone call to rescuers after her family's car came under fire in Gaza City as they attempted to flee approaching Israeli forces. Hind's uncle, aunt and three cousins were killed initially. Hind and another cousin, 15-year-old Layan, survived and contacted the Palestine Red Crescent Society. Layan was later also killed, having made a harrowing call for help herself. "They are shooting at us. The tank is right next to me. We're in the car, the tank is right next to us," Layan screamed in a clip shared on social media, amid intense gunfire in the background, before she went quiet and the gunfire stopped. Hind was left stranded in the vehicle for hours on the phone, surrounded by her dead relatives, as paramedics attempted to rescue her. The rescue team eventually arrived in the area, but contact was lost with them and Hind. Hind and the paramedics were later also found killed. A Forensic Architecture investigation concluded that an Israeli tank had likely fired 335 rounds on the car.

During its July 2025 Prime Day event, Amazon shipped an estimated 450 million items. What it fails to report about its Prime Day operations, however, are the guaranteed spikes in carbon emissions that will linger in the atmosphere for centuries.

If You’re Thinking of Snagging an Amazon Prime Day Deal, Stop and Read This First

Amazon’s emissions are rapidly rising, and its Prime Day deliveries play a significant role in stoking climate change.

🌊 Marine heatwaves and the carbon cycle

A new study shows that marine heatwaves can disrupt food webs and carbon transport in the NE Pacific.

Marine heatwaves modulate food webs and carbon transport processes - Nature Communications

A decade of BGC-Argo and plankton records shows North Pacific heatwaves reshape food webs and trap small particles in midwater, slowing deep-ocean carbon export. Impacts vary by event, underscoring the need for sustained ocean monitoring.
