"Eighty-five countries have sought a roadmap to phasing out fossil fuels. A conference this month offers hope they could unite," write Mark Hertsgaard and Kyle Pope of @coveringclimatenow.org

The Genocide in Gaza should have been where the world drew the line. The War Criminals from the USA and Israel and their assistants in the Media should have all been put on trial. Then things would never have gotten to this.

The Inquiry recognised that reporting of HCW deaths under the RIDDOR Regulations for reporting occupational disease should be better. Sadly it didn't address the failure to report occupational infections which don’t cause deaths but leave HCWs crippled with Long-COVID. /End

The Inquiry was unequivocal in ‘calling out’ the World Health Organisation for failing to recognise the potential for airborne transmission. The Inquiry does not seem to have attempted to determine whether WHO was 'prompted' by countries which did not have enough RPE... /5 of 23

‘British workers shouldn’t pay for Trump’s war’

Highest #strawhouse wooden frame build just started in Hylle, Malmö by Kaminsky.se with ecococon.eu prefabricated #straw modules. This is rad. #rapidlyrenewablematerial #holzbau #CO2storage #bauwende Please copy and paste and see if your outdated national regulations will implode.

The combined effect of these two things – Middle East war fuelling a fresh crisis together with public sector and welfare cuts to fund militarisation – will be enormous. We need to develop mass opposition to war, militarism and economic attacks alike... www.counterfire.org/article/trum...

It's astounding to see such messaging. I thought we'd have learned something from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, but... Still wearing my mask here in Germany in public spaces & happily dodged catching anything since 2019.

Meningococcal Meningitis is aerosolised... and spreads in confined spaces. Let's get it right this time! #Maskup #Ventilate #Vaccinate U.K.’s deadly meningitis outbreak | Scientific American share.google/LSrgtviCQvaI...

This is the worst type of messaging, and further undermines trust in public health 🔸️Meningococcal meningitis absolutely spreads through respiratory droplets 🔸️Masks significantly limit transmission, especially via source control. 10% Case fatality rate. I'd be wearing one if I were at Kent.

Amnesty International say what is happening in Palestine is a genocide. The UN Special Rapporteur say it's a genocide. Countless genocide scholars say it's a genocide. How are we still doing this? And why is the BBC doing this? youtu.be/Es_wxH04bgs?...

The world is adding 1 GW of solar every HALF DAY. In 2004, that same 1 GW took a whole YEAR. That’s exponential S-curve disruption. Next up: 🔋 Storage explodes 🚗 EVs accelerate 🛢️ Fossil demand gets squeezed Sales tell you what’s happening. Capacity tells you what wins.

“The blackout was fundamenfally caused by poor voltage control, something that better rulemaking and more robust control logic, especially on power-electronic converters, could have avoided” Nothing to do with renewables at all

Ben Ehrenreich: “As a feature writer with more than twenty years of experience in the industry, I don’t think of magazines as A-tier or B-tier or whatever. I just think about whether they shilled for genocide.”

The UK, in the middle of a meningitis outbreak AND Covid Inquiry with tons of testimony that admits officials effed up guidance on masking bc they assumed Covid transmitted thru droplets in close proximity to infected person vs truth that aerosols hang in the air and breathed in, IS EFFING UP AGAIN!

Wait... has Trump’s war in Iran just enhanced the global drive towards energy efficiency, electrification, and diversification? heatmap.news/energy/energ...

It amazes me how few people seem to know about the risks of repeat covid infection. I've only had it once and I want to keep it that way. My husband lost his sense of smell after his third (mild) infection.

We’re one week away from the biggest day of mass protest that our country has ever seen. Next Saturday, millions of Americans will gather to reject the regime’s brutality at home and abroad. Please join us for a massive, peaceful, joyful, and historic No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social: 'Wealth tax needs to be day one priority' www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/zac...

Talking sense again @zackpolanski.bsky.social?😱 The vested interests can't have that. They want us plebs to believe that funding mutual health and social care by National Insurance, is an erosion of our rights. In fact it threatens theirs ... to hoard wealth at the expense of a humane society.

I’ve said this before and it’s worth saying again: these all seems remarkably normal - indeed unremarkable! - questions to ask; that @zackpolanski.bsky.social asking them causes me to cheer out loud says something about the terrible state of our current politics and how warped it’s all become.

British.

Zack Polanski will use a major speech on his economic policy to describe the UK as a country where successive governments have turned it from a manufacturing economy to one where the basics of life have been privatised and are rented back at crushing cost. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“Trump promised to end wars, not start them,”...“Instead, he has deployed military force in increasingly dizzying ways. No other modern American leader has directed assaults in as many countries in such a short span of time.” #Time www.euronews.com/culture/2026...

Lil Marco Rubio says Maduro will face justice in U.S. courts. So in other words, foreign presidents can be held accountable for crimes in our country. But our own president cannot. So maybe other countries should hold Trump, Rubio, & Hegseth Accountable for their war crimes if America wont🤔

why aren't other countries helping us with the strait of hormuz after we started an unjust war, cut off trade, and insulted them for a year?

Trump also: "when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money"

Which one is it 🙄? "The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money” “BUT, of far greater interest and importance to me, as President, is stopping an evil Empire, Iran, from having Nuclear Weapons" thehill.com/homenews/adm...

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering right now.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

Sentenced to 2 years in jail for putting tomato soup on glass, which took 10 seconds to wipe off. Not in Iran, in the UK.

The wealth gap between CEO and workers is astonishing. I support mandating that ratio and prohibiting public companies from paying workers so little they have to rely on government assistance and food banks to survive.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…
