So excited to see this! Over 4 episodes I cover the hugely alarming conclusions of the Joint Intelligence Ctte Report, shamefully suppressed by Government, & explore its implications for our food and water security. @nebriefing.bsky.social @climatemajority.bsky.social @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

🚨 BREAKING: The UK has recorded its hottest June day for the third day in a row after temperatures hit 36.9°C in Suffolk

Nino region 3.4 SST update for June 8. By year's end: a global temperature spike, record floods & droughts, massive heatwaves & storms, global crop failures & famine, wildfires, dead coral and other marine life, inflation and infrasructure collapse. Your mileage may vary.

Breaking New! Code UFB!!! Total fuckery is happening to the sea-surface temperatures in region Nino 3.4:

The three year running average for the global surface temperature anomaly is now more than 1.54°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline. With El Nino ahead, expect this to keep rising over the next two years.

Britain ‘sleepwalking into a #food crisis’ without urgent action, experts say - Industry figures warn of national security risk and call for ministers to address impact of extreme weather, inflation and Iran war Story by @fionaharvey.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A big piece in today's @theguardian.com Please note, I am being optimistic in my scenario 😮 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote

This is an excellent over view of the dangerous warming period we’ll likely be entering in the next 12 months. Share it widely. Corp news will not acknowledge this increased danger until it’s too late in order to keep markets stable. That is their sole job. open.substack.com/pub/chrisglo...

Your 'water-cooler fun fact' for today: The 3-year running average for the global surface temperature anomaly is currently sitting at a record 1.53°C above the pre-industrial baseline.

Assuming accelerating warming since 1980, the planet will cross 2.0°C sometime around 2036-2037. As for where we are right now with respect to 1.5°C, check your rear-view mirror.

The global food system is systemically fragile in the same way that the global financial system was before the 2008 crash. If it goes it down, we’re looking, as complex societies, at a potential termination event. This week's column. Please read it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Reporter: Why didn't you notify Japan that you were going to attack Iran? Trump next to the Japanese PM: "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour? You believe in surprise I think much more so than us."

Trump says US Navy sank Iran's warship off the coast of Sri Lanka because "it's more fun" to sink ships than capture them.

The Talk

Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court! A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest. A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

1. Many here seem bemused by the anger and disappointment this government attracts. Please bear with me while I try to explain it. Let’s begin with Gaza. Starmer’s complicity is one of the major reasons so many people are disillusioned. rethinkingsecurityorguk.wpcomstaging.com/2025/10/07/i... 🧵

William Nordhaus received the Nobel Memorial Prize for these flawed economic models, and Bjorn Lomborg built a highly lucrative career on them. They told rich and powerful people what they wanted to hear. While helping to consign us all to catastrophe. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

If we assume long-term accelerated warming, then we'll be breaking the Paris limit of 1.5°C before the year is out.

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

Michigan’s attorney general sued four of the world’s biggest fossil fuel companies and the American Petroleum Institute, alleging the companies conspired against renewable energy development, and that doing so drove up energy prices for Michiganders.

PSA: Here's how the anti-net zero sausage gets made: 1. Oil companies fund climate denial groups 2. which incubate fake experts 3. who write policy papers for 'think tanks' 4. which get blurbed by politicians 5. & reported uncritically by right-wing media. Voila! www.desmog.com/2026/01/28/c...

”There is a growing fear that climate change in the future won’t, as it has until now, happen gradually. It will happen suddenly, as formerly stable planetary systems transgress tipping points — thresholds beyond which things cannot be put back together again.“ e360.yale.edu/features/1.5...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This week's column is about something that's arguably more important than anything in the news, crucial as some of the other issues are. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What's next, suspension of civil liberties followed by mass arrests and arbitrary executions? The US has become a dangerous fascist regime...

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."
