Two excellent humans stirring up something wonderful @zackpolanski.bsky.social channeling the late, great Benjamin Zephaniah

Lots of winter geese arriving this morning

Best ever climate meme from the brain of Joel Pett

@threeacresacow.bsky.social thanks for a great evening. Fully re-energised

So many people joining at the moment we can’t keep up with ringing them all to say Hi

Anyone else used to play a game called Connections?

Speaking of changes we want to see... We in @greenparty.org.uk have our internal elections on right now. Join by 31st July to vote, and use your voice to steer us in a direction to keep fighting & demanding better! join.greenparty.org.uk

Oil and gas giants have made huge profits for decades while driving the climate crisis. I'm backing the @makepolluterspay.bsky.social campaign to make the biggest polluters contribute their fair share towards tackling the crisis and protecting our communities and economy.

🪸 On this #WorldOceanDay, let’s remember that coral reefs host incredible biodiversity, supply our food, and support our health and livelihoods, incl. through tourism, and are vulnerable to climate change, overfishing and pollution. 🧪🌏

Thought provoking day yesterday at AdFree Leeds workshop. Had been horrified that morning to see the May average CO2 ppm had hit 430 so when they wanted us to get crafty there was question of what topic

An apology to Keir Starmer:

It should be clear to everyone at this point that the only reasonable course of action is a military coalition of states to impose a no-fly zone around Gaza, physically stop Israel's genocidal slaughter, and rush aid in to prevent mass starvation.

The slaughter is accelerating, Israel's genocidal meat machine is going berserk and Western leaders describe Israel's behaviour as "possibly in breach of International Law". Possibly? Possibly? Instead of cutting off all ties with Netanyahu they rap him with a warm lettuce...

Just this really. Simples www.instagram.com/p/DJbYM6_zjj...

Swifts have lost more than half their population in 20 years. A simple £35 brick in new builds could help save them. Labour used to support this – now they’re planning to backtrack. Sign the petition now to show them the public still backs this nature-friendly fix:

Important story by my Guardian colleague Sandra Laville www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Just been to see the wonderful #RaveOnForTheAvon everything a film should be warm, funny, engaging, powerful, reflective and ultimately a call to arms

It's a concerted fossil fuel campaign to block or delay climate action in the UK, already hamstrung and framed negatively by Stormer and Peeves.

Just whow (and yes, it is peer-reviewed research). How little we understand about the #Biodiversity that we are fast trashing

We need bold leadership. Now. That's why I'm running to be the next leader of the Green Party. Join our campaign: backzack.com #BackZack

A day of great power

Life is so wonderfully complex. Yet we are wiping out huge numbers of species every day so some corporation can make bigger profis.

Absolutely this. 💚

In a frankly alarming world someone has made a beautiful thing in the park near where I grew up

I know there are many trans and non-binary people who will be feeling deeply worried today, caught in the midst of a media storm as they try to simply live their lives. Please know that I stand with you - today, tomorrow and always. My statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling today:

And yet again they have nailed it beautifully youtu.be/pvT3aQjLxdE

It may all be madder than a bucket of frogs but it’s still the last day of meteorological winter and the birds are rinsing the foggy morning with song

Things wrong with the world that we rarely articulate #3471

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

We received our bill for next financial year today. An increase of 16% on last year. To fund the huge salaries and dividends of companies charging us for something that should be a human right. Water belongs to all of us

We just need to give it a chance. If we focus our funding on countering our adverse impacts then in lots of places nature can do the rest

Never forget that when Seoul, Korea removed the Cheonggyecheon expressway in 2003 and replaced it with a restored stream, 1000 acre park and improved public transit, not only did it TRANSFORM the city’s public life and economic success, but the car traffic got better. The car traffic got BETTER.

Sea ice in the Arctic and around Antarctica cool our climate, drive ocean circulation across the planet, and provide a unique habitat for polar ecosystems. Sea ice amounts have now fallen to their lowest since we started measuring them. This is not good. 🌊🥼❄️🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

On Thursday night, Greens in Warwick beat one of those Reform UK Nigels in a by-election. Join @greenparty.org.uk to be part of more Thursdays like that as its all hands on deck now across the land.

This is so important and aligns with habitat creation and creating more nature friendly cities so it’s a win win

Yet more performative cruelty. This means someone who fled for their life 25 yrs ago, got refugee status in the UK, and has been part of their community here ever since - maybe married, had kids, started a business - can never be a citizen. That’s not right. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

First aconite of the year at freezing, windblown, wonderful St Abb’s head.

How often does this go unchallenged? At least this time its been called out

Beaver feels like a super timely conversation as we dwell in a land flowing with water we need to hold and fluxing carbon we need to sequester. Good to hear it on Today not just in all my channels

“A new study of early separated lane projects in the U.S. across six cities finds a rise of ridership between 21% and 171% after the lanes were installed.” The pretty strong and convincing case for protected bike-lane networks in cities. In @fastcompany.com
