Here, @westcountryvoices.bsky.social have compiled my thread on the utterly bonkers mismanagement of Dartmoor into an easy-to-read article: westcountryvoices.co.uk/prepare-your...

Another day another protest. With @mothersrebellionuk.bsky.social in Parliament Square on a sunny spring day. Our children deserve a lovable future.

Absolutely horrific 😦😮🤬🤬

The 8th wave of global action with @mothers-rebellion.bsky.social is coming with peaceful circles for the future of all our kids. Circles of mothers* and allies will be held around 26th April to align with Earth Day #protectwhatyoulove 🌍💚

Terrifying 😞

“WE DO NOT INHERENT THE EARTH FROM OUR ANCESTORS, WE BORROW IT FROM OUR CHILDREN”, Chief Seattle. Mothers are at the heart of the climate movement, fighting to protect the world. Just as they nurture and protect their kids, they’re standing strong against the forces threatening all our futures.

The level of repression in the U.K. is now at alarming levels. A genocide has been taking place for 18 months, assisted by our government. We should all be taking resistance to the next level. Solidarity with Youth Demand and all who are. #FreePalestine

Climate models make statistical predictions - there's a certain chance this or that could happen given particular inputs. This new paper highlights that there is a small, but real, chance things could get much worse than generally expected. www.newscientist.com/article/2473...

Care-workers, teachers, doctors... Dr Patrick Hart has been sentenced to 1 year in prison for taking part in direct action in 2022. No prison for protest. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/no... #stopjailingtruthtellers #freepoliticalprisoners

Spead the word! Share on social media or download and share elsewhere. Persuade family and friends to attend on the 22nd!

Important thread on the so-called climate benefits of 'regenerative' ranching over industrial beef production. In short: there aren't any. And that's before you even factor in the vast opportunity costs to natural ecosystems, and how that loss impacts the climate – *independent of CO2 emissions*.

The recent announcement from Defra that they will no longer be accepting applications for the #SustainableFarmingIncentive has come as a huge blow to our members. You can read our full response here: landworkersalliance.org.uk/defra-announ...

It’s time we banned driven grouse shooting , sign our petition today petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

If the world went plant based 🌱 we could free up and rewild 75% of current agricultural land and still be able to feed 8 billion people on the remaining 25%. And we *need* these restored carbon sinks to effectively remove excess carbon from the atmosphere 🌳🌲

Animal agriculture is the leading cause of deforestation (80%!) and biodiversity loss. Going plant based is activism, better for the planet, better for your health and better for your children’s futures 💚🌱

Yet more evidence that water companies should be back in public hands. What an indictment of failed regulation & oversight and the triumph of corporate greed 👇

George Monibot, "We have a Chancellor and. Prime Minister who seem to have no vision at all, except this thing called growth, GDP growth" "GDP should not be used as a measure of national welfare" #BBCQT

THIS. Such blatant hypocrisy 😡

A talk prof Paul Behrens gave today on 'Food Transformations' has been recorded, so I'll post a link soon. Some of his arguments: 🧵 1) Food systems are the top/key drivers of all Planetary Boundaries, with animal ag playing the biggest part (+ top driver of antibiotic resistance, pandemics, etc)

185 countries, representing 83% of global emissions and almost 80% of the world’s economy, have missed the Paris Agreement deadline to submit new climate plans.

It’s absolutely outrageous! 🤬 follow @axedrax.bsky.social for ways to get involved and take action ✊

One fact is not well known: in most UK cities, the top single contributor to key air pollution is... farming, mostly livestock www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2023/ma.... Ammonia from animal farming & fertilisers accounts in Europe for 50% of PM2.5 pollution www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #goplantbased

Time after time, this Gov is prioritising lobbyists over scientists. Drax is disastrous for climate & nature.

Climate action globally is under threat. It’s hugely urgent to seize initiative from rightwing populists. We need to change tactics: start by building climate resilience in local communities where people can feel tangible benefits – we’re calling it climate popularism. @rupertread.bsky.social & me🧵

Urgent: UK media reports that Ed Miliband could annonce plans for big new subsidies for Drax and maybe Lynemouth Power Stations on Monday - please email him and his department right away! www.biofuelwatch.org.uk/2025/drax-su...

Rosebank won’t lower our energy bills, deliver growth, help the UK reach climate targets, deliver significant numbers of long-term jobs, raise any taxes, or create energy security at home. Green energy will do all of the above... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

SHOCKING: The UK Government might be getting ready to award BILLIONS to the DIRTIEST power plant in town. Drax power station is BURNING TREES, filling our air with smoke and huge amounts of carbon. Make it make sense?! 🤔

The pace of global heating has been significantly underestimated, according to renowned climate scientist Prof James Hansen, who said the international 2C target is “dead” 2/2 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

If someone were deliberately cultivating deadly pathogens, we’d call them bioterrorists. When animal agribusiness does it, it’s called business as usual. herbivore.club/blog/...

If you have the privilege, resources and time to be doing nice things, you need to be taking climate action for your children. Please reach out via DMs if you don’t know where to start 🙏💚 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We refuse to look away. We refuse to give up. For our children, and children everywhere 💔✊ nymag.com/intelligence...

We could use biofuels to power our planes but it would take 50% of the UK's agricultural land. Or we could use green hydrogen but it would take around 2 times our renewable energy generation. In other words, green aviation requires way fewer flights and no airport expansion.

Less than one percent of the Earth’s water is available for human use. This limited supply, known as freshwater, can be sourced from rivers, lakes and groundwater 💧 sentientmedia.org/ag...

Some of our Mothers* Rebellion members were at this protest ✊

“There is something sacrilegious about felling a 400-year-old tree for decking—or even a 30-year-old pine for toilet paper. It is hard to underestimate the drama of being a tree. Every one is an unimaginable feat of luck and ingenuity. Once you know that, you can’t unknow it."

AMAZING NEWS!! 🎉🎉

What happened to Keir Starmer, the bright and innovative human rights lawyer and man of principle?

they say there's no alternative to this system. but the alternatives are already here. community owned energy, workers' cooperatives, degrowth, circular resources, regenerative food systems, economies built around care, not profit. a future beyond extraction and exploitation is waiting to be built.

This, absolutely this 💯 We need everyone to show up, imperfectly and authentically. Activists are often held to much higher standards than other people. There’s no such thing as a perfect activist. We all need to show up and do the work. We need billions of #imperfectactivists ✊✊

We wouldn't need to! 55% of UK cropland is used to produce livestock feed. Shifts to healthier diets would free huge amounts of land, both from grazing & feed crops. Much of this cd be for carbon uptake/rewilding; area needed to produce food would shrink hugely ourworldindata.org/land-use-diets

So disappointed in Labour. 😡 This was such an opportunity to show some bold climate leadership and commit to reversing nature loss by 2030. Without nature, we have no future. Our children have no future. No economy on a dead planet 💔🌍 www.theguardian.com/environment/...
