Ocean heating and overfishing need to be tackled together | Letter Letters: Fish populations are tied directly to food security, coastal livelihoods and ecosystem stability, writes Saad Kassis-Mohamed of the WeCare Foundation

🌑️🎣 "Govts should not point to isolated rebounds [of fish populations] as evidence of success while ignoring the cumulative warming trend beneath them. A temporary rise is not recovery. In some cases, it may be what masks deeper collapse." πŸ”½

Remember, when we wanted more renewable energy to reduce fossil fuels and tackle the climate crisis, we were sneered at and dismissed as β€˜fantasists’.

Yet, when tech billionaires want solar to power the AI data centres stealing people’s jobs, the right can’t get enough of it.

WATCH β€” @senpeterwelch walks through a no-bid $143,000,000 contract that went to @KristiNoem’s spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin’s husband’s company that had just been formed.

She should be impeached for this outrageous scandal alone.

Yet it’s barely a blip in this corrupt regime.

Found this site for US mass shootings.

America is more violent than ever.

Violence begets violence

Please πŸ™ stop, it’s not about mental health. It’s about a culture where the DoD is now the Department of War, intentionally.

If it’s true Reform UK’s Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick told a business audience last night that renewable companies are "screwed" if Reform get in, it tells you everything about their readiness to inflict national self-harm in pursuit of ideological war on climate action.

Christian Nationalist Logic:

"We're gotta waste millions of dollars killing folks in a useless war because Jesus is powerless to just come back himself and start Armageddon if we don't. He needs our help, y'all! Glory!"

Have to say its great hearing Trump moaning about how uncooperative the UK is... if we pissing off Trump we must be doing something right.

Minnesota is mourning the loss of Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake who was killed in Kuwait on Sunday.

She answered the call to serve and gave her life in service to our state and nation. Minnesotans are wrapping our arms around her loved ones.

If every person who has attempted or plans to attend a No Kings March votes Blue in the midterm election Congress can be retaken. Think about what this simple act can accomplish. Be sure you double check that you are registered to vote well in advance. This is a very patriotic act .

Usually when America’s president starts a war based on lies told to hide their failures, our allies back us up, that doesn’t seem to be happening this time. As unfortunate that is, it’s good that he’s not being legitimatized.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39

Benjamin Netanyahu played Dufus Trump like a well worn guitar! But then Trump is a jackass anyway. We are now fighting Israel’s war against Arabs.

A court filing said Jimenez may have been denied access to a lawyer before being forced to sign removal documents that were not translated into Spanish. His case is among hundreds of complaints that have been filed in Minnesota courts.

TED makes multi-million-dollar investment to boost safe abortion in 10 countries This is the first time TED’s Audacious Project has invested in an organization specifically focused on abortion access and care.

The global reproductive rights organization Ipas will be receiving "multi millions" from TED's Audacious Project. This is the first time the project has funded an organization that works specifically in abortion access and care since the initiative was developed in 2018.

Donald Trump just became the first US Commander in Chief since 1991 to have three American fighter jets shot down by another country… and somehow, it wasn’t even an enemy.

I can’t understand why the generals admirals and other high ranking offices are following illegal orders knowing that they don’t have to.
Are they all Trump supporters not caring about their troops?
