Great to see & hopefully soon to be followed by a resolution @ 2025 International Association of Genocide Scholars' conference, definitively declaring a genocide is ongoing.

Legal clarity is urgently needed to remove the plausible deniability Starmer is hiding behind @genocidescholars.bsky.social

Israel’s war on Gaza: Why do legal experts say it’s genocide? Experts, including UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese, are unanimous: the most serious of international crimes is happening in Gaza

They have also written up an accompanying overview from various #intLaw & #genocide studies experts, asking them when the #Gaza genocide began & how they reached their conclusion that it is genocide. #Israel www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-...

Middle East Eye has assembled statements from experts across #intLaw & #genocide studies, all in agreement that what is happening in #Gaza is genocide. I am one of those experts, along with @vukusiciva.bsky.social, @dirkmoses.bsky.social, ‪@nimersultany.bsky.social & others youtu.be/LhT5DsSE8l4?...

Will AIGS vote on a resolution to declare genocide in Palestine during this year's conference?

An AIGS resolution would provide urgently needed legal clarity while waiting for the final ICJ ruling.

"The AU said in a statement that reparations for Africa could entail land restitution in countries where land was taken from indigenous populations...In 2023, the AU joined forces with the Caribbean community CARICOM to demand reparations."

Renewables are growing fast in China... and so is coal! 👇
I look forward to reading "More and more and more" by Jean-Baptiste Fressoz, where he discusses a strong historic trend, globally, for energy accumulation rather than genuine transition

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

In the fight to end fossil fuels sensitizing grassroots about its effects is key. We must fight for a just energy transition by shaping a future that is sustainable and renewable.

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks.

Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

How Canadian cities could be leaders in the fight against waste We don’t recycle enough! Cities, as the main sources of consumption and waste production, are strategically positioned to reverse this trend.

Cities can be leaders in fighting waste by using urban planning and procurement policies and practices to support a circular economy

The Los Angeles Fires Accelerated the Looming Natural Gas Crisis All American cities are at risk.

New by me in @heatmap.news: The LA fires have accelerated the looming financial crisis facing gas utilities from 2035/2040 to today.

Preventing that disastrous cost spiral, though, can help make burned areas safer, easier to rebuild, and more insurable! (1/12)

Mission 300 Energy Summit to Gather Africa’s Leaders and Partners to Transform Energy Sector Mission 300 is an unprecedented collaboration between the African Development Bank, the World Bank Group, and global partners to address Africa’s electricity access gap using new technology and innovative financing

Stage set for crunch talks on bringing electricity to 300m Africans Andrew Herscowitz, CEO of the Mission 300 Accelerator, tells African Business that rapid progress is within reach.

Over 20 African heads of state are meeting for a summit on the Mission 300 initiative established last year by the World Bank and African Development Bank.

The aim is to agree a pathway towards meeting the initiative’s target to extend electricity access to 300m people in Africa by 2030.

86,463 people are incarcerated in UK prison estate (capacity: 79,409)

Some simple math: 7,054 are in a system that cant accommodate them.

Overcrowding leads to conflict and more dangerous prisons - creating terrible conditions for tackling root causes of crime & helping ppl turn their lives around

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

@imanibarbarin.bsky.social so eloquently stated what I have been too frustrated to put into words for years.

The memeifcation of fascism is disgusting. It contributes to its normalization & treats this entire experience as if it is entertainment. It contributes to the TOLERANCE of fascism.
