This is what you really need to worry about this Halloween.

Overshooting 1.5°C wasn't 'inevitable.' We've been pushed by fossil fuel giants & governments that pander to them. Every delay, every oil field, every broken promise made this crisis worse. Keir Starmer, will you promise to leave Rosebank undeveloped? www.theguardian.com/environment/...

'openly sympathizes with the Palestinians' is a pretty gross way of trying to make human compassion with civilians murdered in their tens of thousands sound problematic

6/9 By choosing these alternatives, travellers lead by example, showing that sustainable options are viable. Individual actions may seem small, but they push systemic change in travel industries.

Really unpopular but completely bulletproof opinion: the Sturgeon/Harvie coalition was the most feminist government in Scottish history and the most left wing government since at a minimum the 1970s.

Here's something that's not talked about enough The air pollution from burning fossil fuels kills an estimated 10 million people a year 1 in 6 deaths is caused by fossil fuels www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

When you consider the *ecocide* alongside the genocide being perpetrated in Gaza, you begin to grasp the totality of the Israeli state’s attempt to eliminate both the Palestinians and their homeland. My column today. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

One of the unexpected things I've learned from my advocacy for trans people is how malignant parts of the State can be, how it can misuse data for positively evil purposes. It's taught me people can't be safe with a digital ID card and so I've signed this. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

I really recommend this programme on the Welsh language movement and Just Stop Oil for anyone who hasn't seen it yet! Spoken in Welsh, but English subtitles are available. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

NEW: Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, says UN commission of inquiry Commission’s 72-page legal analysis cites examples including scale of killings, aid blockages and forced displacement www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s... The UK government is complicit. wedonotcomply.org

Methane leaks are a climate disaster - but one that is relatively cheap and easy to fix. We need to demand politicians force fossil fuel companies to fix the mess they have made, whether the leaks are in the oil, fossil gas, or coal infrastructure! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Even if the costs of eliminating fossil fuels were a net reduction in GDP globally, we should still do it, because we all consider our lives, our safety and our environment to be more important than a weird metric that means nothing to most of us

The UK should join the growing boycott of Eurovision if Israel is allowed to take part. Eurovision is a celebration of diversity, love and unity. But that's not possible if it’s being used to whitewash genocide. Israel should be removed as Russia was after its invasion of Ukraine.

From ‘The Onion’ Editorial Board:

It's time we had a discussion about abolishing the Terrorism Act

“This is an attack on international students, nothing to do with visa overstays and everything to do with apeing Reform.” Our GS, @drjogrady.bsky.social International students are vital to our campuses, economy and communities. Govt must stop scapegoating. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Visit Norway! The only petrostate that is massacring whales, yet somehow many people believe it is a sustainable country

Trans rights are, in fact, human rights. Pass it on. 🏳️‍⚧️🫂

It's really sad how @sciencemuseum.org.uk hasn't learned from a few years ago, when I visited their climate exhibition, which was both sponsored by Shell and really far from the science. I'd go as far as saying it was actively trying to divert people from taking the climate crisis seriously.

The Home Secretary calls the Israeli govt’s actions in Gaza ‘intolerable.’ But he is tolerating it. I asked when he will take real action: a full arms embargo, widespread sanctions, a ban on the import of settlement goods, and funding for evidence collection for prosecutions.

“Its not fascism if you simply comply with the unjust anti free speech law covering for a genocide”

Folks often ask if we can do anything to protect authors and writers. I have been indeed working on it, and this is recent news on our case. Bartz vs Anthropic is now the first case certified as class action. The ramifications are significant. See below. chatgptiseatingtheworld.com/2025/07/17/a...

you pledging your vote for nothing in return is why they take you for granted and get more bigoted to appeal to the right. you gotta at least act like they could lose you, y'know. keep them a little bit worried

HS2 would provide capacity needed for Britain's railway network - and no alternatives have ever been proposed that come close to delivering what HS2 does.

Parliament voted for authoritarianism today, by voting to proscribe a non-violent direct-action group opposing genocide as a terrorist organisation. This is a disgraceful attack on democracy that must be overturned. We are all Palestine Action!

Parliament will vote TODAY on proscribing Palestine Action as a TERRORIST ORGANISATION like ISIS. Can we get to 100,000 signatures against before the day is over? palestinecampaign.eaction.org.uk/NoProscription

Today, the UK government intends to ban the non-violent protesters Palestine Action as a "terrorist" group, exposing anyone supporting them to terrorism charges. In 2 days, 380,000 people have watched this video on YT alone. You're going to need a bigger prison. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECkV...

They're doing this because they're scared.

The use of anti-terror laws to silence those opposed to genocide MUST STOP! The suggestion that a person attempting to save lives is committing acts of terrorism must be opposed. Political leaders must ignore Israel’s influence and govern with integrity, as is their duty. 2/3

Perfectly expressed.

WE ARE ALL PALESTINE ACTION The suggestion to consider Palestine Action as a proscribed group is a gross violation of UK law, opposes the definition of what a terrorist actually does, and insults the memories of victims both of genuine terrorism and of the genocide in Palestine. 1/3

I like having human rights

Why is the government backing airport expansion? Because it believes that so-called 'sustainable' aviation fuel can reduce emissions. We know that's unlikely: flightfree.co.uk/post/the-tro... So we're running this petition to stop airport expansion: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71... Pls sign!

There is no scope for any increase in flying in the UK, and therefore no scope for airport expansion. Please ask the government to stop airport expansion! (and consider joining the flightfree pledge while you're at it!)

📣 Stop Airport Expansion 📣 Help us tell the government WE DON’T WANT EXPANSION at any UK airport, including Heathrow, Gatwick and Luton. Sign the petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

What will it take for the world to realise that Israel is indeed doing what its leaders say it is doing? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Lots of very high profile UK biologists sign a letter saying that biological sex isn't binary or immutable and that the Supreme Court's ruling is scientifically wrong! We really need to hammer home how the anti-trans side is anti-science (you can add your name still if you are in a relevant field)

I know this sounds extreme, but it is what Tony Blair was arguing for. Remember it! The suggestion that we SHOULDN'T be phasing out fossil fuels as fast as possible is absolute genocidal insanity. It is no surprise it is coming from Tony Blair, who works for a Saudi oil company.
