How do we rehabilitate activism? There’s a clear strategy behind the character assassination of climate activists – it’s our job to counter it

One tactic of the fossil-fuel lobby is to denigrate activists/activism to weaken our challenges to their hoarding of wealth through status quo destructive projects. It's our job to counter that & rehabilitate activism. Great piece by

A picture of the book Friends and Purpose by Maff Potts of the Camerados held looking out over water in a canal boat basin in London

This could be the most important book of our time. More so for how beautiful & elegantly it says the simple things we need right now - friends and purpose - and how mutuality is better than charity, and how to save lives and build communities. Well done Maff! @camerados-org.bsky.social

Why we started Absurd Intelligence ‘Those of us who have been around the movement for many years can think back to a time we would tell ourselves, “When rich people in LA start losing their homes, things will change”...’

If you want to find out why a bunch of insanely talented people (me excluded of course) would jack in the 9-to-5, throw their careers in the bin, and not look back, read our Alanna’s great piece. 😻
