We are deeply saddened by the murder of journalist, documentarist, and environmental activist Hakan Tosun.

The reason for his murder still remains a mystery. We join his friends in Turkey in demanding a transparent investigation: #WhatHappenedtoHakanTosun @350.org

The Pope, the Terminator, and a Wicked Problem walk into a bar.

If you told me 2 yrs ago I'd spend a week in the Vatican w them I'd say you were nuts. But then if 20 years ago you told me the Catholic Church would be standing up for climate science vs denialist freaks I'd have you committed.

If Sister Dorothy Stang was still alive and in Rome today sheโ€™d be marching against genocide in Gaza. The memorial can wait.

Killed seeking food - Jeremy Bowen on Abdullah's shooting and Gaza's lethal aid system Inside Panorama and BBC Eye's investigation into hunger in Gaza and why so many are risking their lives for aid.

Sadly, because of a few men (and many world leaders who did not stop them), many on both sides will pay a heavy price for this in the decades to come.
You can eliminate a few but you canโ€™t eliminate an ideology laced with deep anger, hurt and revenge.
