Most mainstream news coverage about oil companies rapidly heating the planet, when there is any, is rated G for 5 yr olds.

Here is an excellent PG-13, or if you’re a lifestyle liberal, NC-17, breakdown of what’s here/what’s coming.

NSFW if u work at a big bank, oil company, Corp news media.

A call for integrated and cooperative global sharing of China’s Earth observation data - Nature Geoscience Greater accessibility to China’s vast archive of satellite Earth observations could enhance scientific progress, disaster preparedness, and international cooperation.

I 100% agree with this statement:

"Open access to China’s Earth observation data is a low-risk, high-reward international opportunity" 🧪🛰️

Every fifth Finn is obese, adult diabetes is prevalent with heart and pulmonary diseases. Many take medication for mental health problems.

Of course, it might 'hurt growth' if people would spend time in nature, walked and cycled more and reduced conspicuous material and unhealthy food consumption.

I looked at the #grokipedia articles about five major environmental topics: coral reefs, sea ice, Amazon rainforest, wildfire, glacier.

The five articles mentioned the phrases climate change/global warming a total of 4 times.

They said alarm/alarmism/alarmist 12 times. 🧪🌿🌎

The Telegraph claims that this updated assumption means "higher subsidies" (false) & that the change will make it harder to meet govt targets (false, it will make it easier, because the auction can buy more capacity for the same "budget"), citing "experts"

Forest sanctuaries and spiritual balance in the Karen highlands of Thailand HUAY EE KHANG, Thailand — “Do you hear the birds calling?” asks Noraeri Thungmueangthong, as the vibrant trill of a blue-throated barbet rings through the pine trees looming up ahead. “That’s a sign…

One of Thailand’s largest Indigenous groups, Karen Pgaz K’Nyau culture is deeply rooted in animist beliefs that emphasize the importance of living in balance with nature.

Their approach to land management incorporates sacred and community forests and traditional small-scale farming.

A new report shows that 5 major meat corporations produced more greenhouse gases than reported for Shell or Chevron.

"We stand at a crossroads where the choices we make about our food systems will determine not just the trajectory of climate change, but the very viability of agriculture itself."

Foreword 👇🧵

The Caerphilly result is what we need to see everywhere at the next election: people coordinating to vote tactically for parties which seek a fairer, kinder, greener country.
Pushing out both those who have betrayed our trust AND those who seek to exploit that betrayal.

The UK water companies are badly failing on all counts yet
"this week the chancellor, Rachel Reeves, told regulators to focus on helping businesses achieve economic growth rather than enforcing regulations."

London Ulez reduced nitrogen dioxide to legal limit, mayor says The mayor of London says the fall in airborne toxins is due to the Ultra low emission zone expansion.

This month I announced that London has met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide for the first time ever.

When I became Mayor, we were told it would take 193 years. We did it 184 years earlier than predicted.

1. It's fascinating to see, as you can from the responses to the post below, how many daft things people believe, to justify their continued meat eating. So let's examine a few of the common myths in the following thread. 🧵

This is the most important development in the fight for a liveable planet in DECADES, and it comes out at just the right time to enable us to put spotlight and pressure on climate obstruction at the COP30 in Brazil.
BRAVO TIMMONS AND CSSN COLLEAGUES!!!!! 🤩🌍🤩

I‘m so unimpressed with Labour‘s line that whether Prince Andrew is should be investigated and held accountable for being a rapist friend of Epstein is ‘a matter for the royal family‘. It isn‘t, it‘s a matter for democracy and the rule of law. Abject cowardice.

My kids have never said "yay!, let's go in the car", whereas they love hopping on the cargo bike

Things the government should give a shit about:
— cost of living crisis
— unaffordable housing
— ecological degradation
— child poverty
— social care crisis
— NHS crisis
— crumbling infrastructure

Things the government should not give a shit about:
— whether some fans can go to a football match

The Cruel Fantasies of Well-Fed People The astonishing story of how a movement’s quest for rural simplicity drifted into a formula for mass death

In any discussion of food and farming, unless your solution can be scaled to feed 8 billion people, you shouldn't be taken seriously. Unfortunately, cottagecore fantasies that would feed only the richest consumers, leaving billions to starve, are all too common.

This can only be adequately explained by institutional racism.

UK MPs “overwhelmingly overestimate the time period humanity has left to bend the temperature curve”, according to new research published this week.

Is your MP one of these? They need to attend the National Emergency Briefing on 27 November

Nigel Farage’s Reform Party Has Accepted £2.3 Million from Fossil Fuel Interests, Climate Deniers, and Polluters Since 2019 Election Reform UK has received more than £2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com

climate change impactsS,2,17. The degradation of cryospheric caps, such as glacial ice, permafrost, and gas hydrates (methane and carbon dioxide gas trapped in an ice matrix) has been attributed3,4,5,6,7,15 as drivers for changes in methane flux in these instances. In these scenarios, rising atmospheric temperature enhances glacial ice melt in the terrestrial realm, reducing the weight of ice sheets and glaciers, which can decrease hydrostatic pressure on subglacial hydrate reservoirs (causing their dissociation), as well as contributing to subglacial recharge which can enhance subglacial flux and subsequent methane discharge at the coast?,4,5,2,18. Similarly, in
