Honestly this is the only logical, coherent thing I’ve heard him say. It is sensible to be mindful on the stairs, especially as we age. But everything else is batshit nuts.

Every

Every ditch or stream or river the train crosses.
Every ploughed field, every row of trees.
Every square church tower in the distance.
Every minute of sunshine, every shadow.
Every wisp of cloud in the wide, blue, East Anglian sky.
Every day. Every day that's left.

Every Every ditch or stream or river the train crosses. Every ploughed field, every row of trees. Every square church tower in the distance. Every minute of sunshine, every shadow. Every wisp of cloud in the wide, blue, East Anglian sky. Every day. Every day that's left.

Major US climate website likely to be shut down after almost all staff fired Exclusive: Climate.gov, which supports public education on climate science, will soon no longer publish new content

Scoop: NOAA's climate portal, climate.gov, will soon no longer publish new content after its staff were recently dismissed.

Former staff fear that the website may become a mouthpiece for the administration's anti-science views.

We will not cower, even in the face of Trump’s militarized escalation.

On Saturday, we are going to rise up all across the country in defiance of this administration’s authoritarian agenda.

In December the South Korean president declared Martial Law. And guess what happened? The people/protesters showed up anyway.
And then it failed.

That’s what WE will do. We will DEFY his declaration, Martial Law will be reversed, trumps demise will be ever-clearer.

A science-based list of the most effective ways an individual can catalyze action.

The most important thing you can do about climate change has nothing to do with …

what we eat

what we drive

what we wear

or any other aspect of our personal carbon footprint.

Our VOICES are the most powerful force we have to change the world.

That’s why …

Today I held a climate meditation and creative writing workshop as part of climate-focused show at Studio Kroner. I’m still blissed out by the shared energy and sense of community. Writing circles are magical💛

Key findings – Global Methane Tracker 2025 – Analysis - IEA Global Methane Tracker 2025 - Analysis and key findings. A report by the International Energy Agency.

Under the Biden administration, the United States wildly under-reported methane pollution.

It's about to get much, much worse.

Who's responsible for the climate crisis?

Two new studies try to answer this question: but whichever way we slice it, the answer doesn't change much.

The wealthiest are disproportionately responsible for the greatest emissions, and that's why climate change is so unfair.

The world as presently constituted is a factory for trauma, created by generations of sociopaths for their own benefit with no regard for the 99%. That so many of you survive and resist and demand peace and healing is a miracle of human spirit.
