I’m continually horrified that this genocide is happening in plain sight, that we’re still effectively allied with the perpetrator, and we have become so immune that this headline is currently below “status yellow thunder warning” on the Irish Times homepage. And not even visible on NYT!

"The 2022 floods highlighted Pakistan's vulnerability to climate change. Three years later, monsoon floods are still claiming shocking human losses," says @fahadsaeed.bsky.social.

My first comment piece in @theguardian.com is on a topic very close to my heart; the threat that the #ClimateCrisis poses to my local community in South Wales. Here's a thread with a few extra thoughts from me 🧵

"Gaza has become hell on earth. No one is spared — even aid workers are starving," UNRWA Juliette Touma said, reading a statement from UNRWA Commissioner-General at @ungeneva.bsky.social press briefing. People in #Gaza are being shot while seeking food. This is happening under the world’s watch.

Climate change is threatening the remains of hundreds of ancient forts dotted around Ireland's coasts, which are vulnerable to coastal erosion.

The @ccacireland.bsky.social adaptation committee have come to the Aran islands to hear about efforts on the islands to become more resilient. It’s important we don’t just meet in Dublin and we hear the needs and successes of all communities. I’ll document some key reflections here
