This city could run dry ‘within weeks’ as it grapples with an acute water crisis | CNN Vital reservoirs are shrinking, authorities are scrambling to reduce demand and stave off catastrophe and residents are desperately trying to conserve water.

Tehran is a microcosm of what’s unfolding globally: drought, climate change, and decades of water mismanagement. A city of 10 million may soon run dry. As drinkable water vanishes, megacity collapse is becoming the new normal.

The image features a striking visual blend of a pig and a cat. The top part of the image is torn away, revealing the face of a cat with the body of a pig underneath. The text above the image reads, "WOULD YOU CARE MORE IF THEY PURRED?" The image is associated with Mercy For Animals. The message challenges viewers to consider why society often values certain animals, like cats, over others, like pigs, despite their similarities in intelligence and emotional capacity. The image questions the inconsistency in how we treat different animals, encouraging empathy and reconsideration of eating or exploiting animals traditionally seen as food.

They both value their lives as much as you do.

Energy descent + climate chaos = unstoppable, converging limits.

Understanding this is a liberation from false hope.

From here, we can choose to live differently - with humility, solidarity, and courage.

Animal ag is a crime. It's torture, rape, kidnapping, early and violent separation of mother and child, murder of children or adolescents. Always.

(Organized) religion should have been abolished long ago. The fact that it still exists and is even gaining more and more influence again shows how undeveloped our species is.

We can offer our hollow, tired excuses, but our exploitation & killing of nonhuman animals is just an exercise in the abuse power uncoupled from accountability. We enact this tyranny simply because we’re able to & they’re unable stop us

Brainwashed and indoctrinated.

Land use per 100 grams of protein Land use is measured in meters squared (m²) per year to produce 100 grams of protein across various food products.

Around 70% of all land currently used for agriculture could be rewilded if humans stopped consuming meat & dairy. Farmed animals are not part of the ecosystem, they destroy it.

Blue whales are going eerily silent—and scientists say it’s a warning sign — National Geographic A six-year study off California’s coast shows how marine heat waves and noise pollution are silencing the ocean’s largest singers. Does saving the ocean start with hearing it?

Blue whales are falling silent from hunger.
The krill are gone. The sea is too warm.
Their songs fade away.
This is no anomaly.
Humanity is deaf to a symphony of grief and warning.

The Labubu doll exposes late-stage capitalism’s greed and waste. Sold in blind boxes, it traps consumers in endless buying (and re-selling), creating tons of plastic waste - all for speculative profiteering, while the ecosphere collapses.

Haha, yesss!

I no longer see myself in the outdated left-right spectrum, but I think it is very worthy of support as a global movement. ALF is too clandestine and Animal Rising is perhaps still not disruptive enough.

Unfinished Funeral Today I travel half-way across the country to a family funeral at a village I haven’t visited since childhood.

The problem with the loss of nature is that it leaves no evidence behind. People forget what was lost, as it all disappears into the time vortex like a lost language.

The cicadas hum - still loud,
their steady pulse hangs in the warm air.
I lean in close to catch this fragile sound,
knowing it won’t last
summer’s voice will fade away,
leaving behind an echo I’m not quite ready to lose.💔

Lithuanian summer you are short, but gosh, what a delight you are!

Collapse isn’t coming. It’s already unfolding - and we’re nearing inflection points that will reshape how we live.

These 7 mainstream news stories aren’t flukes or isolated failures.

They’re system-level signals of a civilisation deep in ecological overshoot. 1/10 #overshoot #collapse

I genuinely don't get how middle-class folks still have kids these days. Having children is something for the ultra-rich. Who wants to expose their child to this "hustle culture"—and for what? Not to mention the looming ecosystem collapse…

Research clearly shows the link of slaughterhouse workers bringing #violence home & outward into their (marginalized) communities. When you think about 80+BILLION animals being slaughtered against their will each yr, that’s A LOT of violence trickling outward…

Wildlife always suffers at our hands. Many of these so-called "safaris" are run by unscrupulous, greedy ppl. Absolutely #overtourism

African safaris so overcrowded that animals are being run over When the word ‘overtourism’ is used, many of us might picture overcrowded European cities or island destinations. Venice has started charging day trippers and banning cruise […]

I think a true feminist doesn't have children. Having children means obeying the patriarchal system. Always. Even with the most progressive partner.

I'm proud to be childfree. I already knew as a teenager that i don't want to have children. And I've stayed true to myself.

Absolutely tragic.💔 On July 17th, humans once again proved their cruelty — three elephants (including calves) killed by a speeding train near Bashtola, driven onto the tracks by a vicious "Hulla party." Now, four shattered survivors mourn their family. I hate humans. We are as superfluous as herpes.
