Demand Woolworths & Coles stop selling salmon farmed in Macquarie Harbour. By removing Macquarie Harbour salmon from their shelves, Coles and Woolworths can send a clear signal: extinction is not an acceptable business practice.

Please sign if this is something that concerns you ... for all species affected by the risk of extinction for the sole purpose of higher profits ...

Keep in mind 100 companies are the drivers of most carbon emissions. Corporations & Billionaires have bribed and bullied the world’s governments and agencies into not meeting Paris Accord numbers. A Yale studies estimates with 73 Trillion dollars we could outfit every country w/ alternative energy.

Everyday billionaires wake up with the means to solve the climate crisis and CHOOSE not to. The idea that they would have to sacrifice some profits to switch to sustainably isn’t something they are willing to do. Instead build survival bunkers, spend $$ planning to go to space. They are psychopaths

400 years will put the earth’s average temperature at 15C above the pre-industrial level at our current rate of warming…

When do you expect the interglacial period will end?

Please do push this into the faces of all those climate deniers! Not that it will have any dramatic effect, but it might bring a little joy into the heart of whomever is doing the pushing!

That’s not because we’re rich or because inflation doesn’t matter.

Price of Crude Oil WTI (USD/Bbl) over a five-year period, spanning from 2021 to early 2026. The chart shows a significant price peak in 2022 reaching over $120, followed by a general downward trend with various fluctuations, eventually hitting a low near $55 in late 2025 before a sharp vertical spike to the current price of 90.900. This recent surge represents an increase of +23.880 (+35.63%), highlighted in green text above the blue line graph.

The real insanity isn’t how much oil prices have spiked, it’s that we’re still burning oil for energy.

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?

Thought I’d share again this post from someone with family in Iran. He described how Iran itself is set up for an attack: “Four levels of succession for every key position…Regional commanders who don’t need orders from Tehran to act.”

Will be interesting to see this getting challenged all the way to High Court

staying offline today, but all I'll say is:

Gaza was the test. Gaza was the precedent. Everyone that failed to speak out or condemn it is now seeing the cost of their silence.

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez on Iran: “Spain is against this disaster. Because we understand that governments are here to improve people's lives, to provide solutions to problems, not to make people's lives worse.
