Suppressed civil servant report warns: without urgent change, our water & food systems risk catastrophic failure. The Water Bill must force companies to build long-term climate resilience.

Politicians who fanned these flames should hang their heads in shame. Time and again we've seen this story play out. Single incidents used to fuel a far right narrative - and communities across the nation paying the price.

@greenpartyhan.bsky.social calls on the Prime Minister to cut VAT rates for hospitality during today's PMQs.

Want to know who Reform really stand for? Look at who's funding them.

"There is nothing more serious than whether we are going to be able to feed ourselves." Adrian Ramsay MP on LBC, calling for the full release of a government-commissioned report warning Britain's food and water systems could face catastrophic failure without urgent action.

Just a low res phone image, but our first NLC display seen from here in #Rivenhall #Essex this year - on the evening of 9th June.

Midnight in Helsinki

In the UK we are sooo far behind on this.

This morning's moon........🌗

OK so is it safe to say that "something is happening" ?!

Friday ice update: Both poles are currently running below the 1981-2010 average for sea ice extent. The Arctic especially stands out, sitting more than 2 standard deviations below average. + More visuals: zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i... + Data from @nsidc.bsky.social: nsidc.org/data/seaice_...

Sunspot Number is 157 :

The most corrupt president in the history of our country.

Nearly the entire ice edge around the #Arctic Ocean observed below average sea-ice concentration conditions in May 2026. Unsurprisingly, this was the most significant around the Barents Sea region, including Svalbard + Concentration = fraction of sea ice + Graphics from zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i...

We're pleased to announce that Emily O'Brien, Cabinet member for climate, nature and food systems at Lewes District Council, has been elected by Green Councillors to lead the new Local Government Association Green Group.

UAH May 2026 :

Meteorological summer has got off to a wet start with several weather stations recording more rain in the first two days of June than in the whole of May ⤵️

The @wmo-global.bsky.social warns: prepare for El Niño. A Warming Pacific Ocean is driving the development of El Niño, increasing the likelihood of higher global temperatures & extreme weather in the months ahead. Forecasts provide a window to act. Time for preparedness is now bit.ly/4o6jByf

This afternoon is the London Assembly Environment Committee. We're meeting about London's Regional Parks. I'm asking questions about nature recovery following @nataliegreenpeer.bsky.social work in the House of Lords on the rights of nature.

@jamesabbott2024.bsky.social Sky Notes for June 2026 www.dunmowbroadcast.co.uk/news/2614740...

In an era of multiparty politics - first past the post is utterly broken. It is time for Proportional Representation. The climate crisis & our inequality crisis cannot wait for another general election. Failing to fix our democracy immediately will betray future generations.

According to #clowns , these very, very big tree things grew at a time of "CO2 famine".

‘Penguin’ decays from CERN’s latest Large Hadron Collider experiment hint at weird new physics

No other president in US history has been so reckless and unhinged.

You know something really notable has happened when you need to extend y-axis significantly. Plotted is each May from 1949 to 2026 absolute max temperature at #London Heathrow, in May 1962 the highest temperature was 18.3C how much has changed. #climate

Sunspot Number is 135 :

Full Moon tonight, being within a month of the Summer Solstice, will be a low one - only getting to 11 deg. above the horizon as seen from mid-Essex when due South, at about 0030BST. By contrast mid-winter Full Moons reach over 60 deg. in altitude - towards the top of this map clip (1/2)

Trump has managed to lose a war that did not need to be fought. What an absolute moron.

As General Dwight D. Eisenhower prepared for D-Day, he needed a forecast. The new movie Pressure shows the tense make-or-break weather prediction that led to the successful invasion of Europe that spelled the beginning of the end of World War II

The UK's water systems are crumbling. Thousands have been left without water in Kent. Our rivers are polluted. Our bills keep rising. This experiment of privatisation has failed. Public Ownership now.

Trump is racking up losses. He tried to illegally pay Jan. 6 rioters with your money. Judges said no. He illegally slapped his name on the Kennedy Center. Judges said no. Milli Vanilli won't even perform at his Freedom 250 party. Bad week to be Donald Trump.

“We’ve got a responsibility to deliver: to show people that the Green Party, not Reform, is the genuine alternative to Labour.” @ZoeGarbettGreen on putting climate justice at the heart of local government to deliver for Hackney's residents.

"Everything I do has got climate and climate justice at its centre, it’s one of our core principles... from trying to buy back council homes and make housing safer and more resilient, to rewilding in parks, from public health to transport.” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

IC2118, The Witches Head Nebula. About 900 light years out, glowing blue because it’s reflecting light from Rigel. This is a two-panel mosaic, ~89 hours of integration across 1,067 five-minute subs. Really happy with how this one came together. #astrophotography #space #nebula
