The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

“The mathematics of famine are simple in Gaza. Palestinians cannot leave, war has ended farming and Israel has banned fishing, so practically every calorie its population eats must be brought in from outside.

“Israel knows how much food is needed. It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades”

Great piece. I am increasingly seeing these types of restrictions hampering green tech as a consumer rights issue.

Extreme weather is intensifying.

Food & energy costs are rising.

Environmental & human rights defenders are facing crackdowns.

All whilst billionaires profit & prop up industries polluting our land, air, & water.

We literally live in the most decadent time in human history. People who already have too much power & more money than they could ever spend forcing climate death upon their own kids so they can make a few more bucks.

Roman orgies got nothing on them.

We fight for #ClimateJustice because activism is not terrorism.

This September we take to the streets to draw a clear line against violence, against injustice, and against those wrecking our planet and climate✊

On July 4th, Donald Trump signed his 'Big Beautiful Bill' into law, which gutted climate action and the social safety net. Meanwhile, in Texas, rescue teams were searching for children swept away by devastating floods. Hear more from 350's Anne Jellema — and then take action: to.350.org/TdzQv

We deserve bold climate action — not our leaders burying their heads in the sand and passing laws that defund disaster preparedness, reject science, gut clean energy progress, and hand out billions of dollars to climate polluters.

Why Is Trump Rushing To Pass The Tax Cut Bill? Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro explains what Republicans don’t want you to know about their legislation — and how it “screws over the people who voted for this president.”

Trump's tax bill defunds the police who target Wall Street criminals (CFPB) and uses the savings to boost funding for the police who target immigrants (ICE).

This is what I mean when I say the Trump tax cut bill is the class war in legislative form. www.levernews.com/why-is-trump...

Why Did a 75-Year-Old Man in Poor Health Just Die in ICE Custody? Isidro Perez came to the United States from Cuba nearly 60 years ago. This is who Stephen Miller is going after now?

So, a man who arrived in the US. from Castro's Cuba in 1966--the year the Supremes recorded "You Can't Hurry Love" and that Astroturf debuted--is now dead in an ICE deportation camp.

Quds News Telegram post with a pic showing a hand dusted with flour holding a pill: Gaza's Government Media Office has expressed its "deep concern and condemnation" over the discovery of "narcotic pills of the type 'Oxycodone'" inside flour bags distributed by the US- and Israeli-backed aid centers across Gaza.

The World’s Most Moral Army™️ appears to be placing opioids into flour distributed in Gaza in an effort to get people addicted.

Note that because of the Israeli blockade, children in Gaza have had to undergo surgeries and amputations without painkillers for nearly 2 years now.

Zohran Mamdani says he would arrest Netanyahu if he visits New York City — if elected mayor.

Stop stop, there’s only so much good news I can take 🫦

Imagine if all these countries spent 5% of their GDP on actually addressing climate change, or on global health, or on ending poverty. But no. War it is, as always.
