This report claims that 1.5°C might be exceeded by 2030 but after a short overshot we could come back to a "safe level". This is totally unjustified #climateoptimism. Earth Energy Imbalance is on track of reaching 1% or >800 TeraWatt! #climateemergency climateanalytics.org/publications...

"Given our roles in research and higher education, we share an ethical responsibility to sound the alarm about escalating global risks and to take collective action in confronting them with clarity and resolve. We show evidence of accelerated warming ..." academic.oup.com/bioscience/a...

So killing Christians is a reason to start a #war? Most of the people killed in boats in the Caribbean were good Christians. This means the US government under #Trump is killing #Christians. Many of the #immigrants treated like dirt by #ICE are Christians. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.” It’s who our government is for. Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires — or for the rest of us?

Bernd Hamm made very clear for who our government is: the global ruling class of a few hundred billionaires, served by the CEO of the multi-national companies. The (not our) governments make sure the CEO have the rules they need to make sure the wealth flows to the ruling class.

I just went through posts of those I am following. It's frustrating! All are finding something that's wrong, getting worse, to blame, to criticize. Nothing is about what we can do, what we are doing to make the world a better place. We need a global citizen movement for bottom-up action.

"As an Indigenous man, I know very well the pain of the forest, because its body is an extension of ours." Why don't we all listen to those like Wajã Xipai who are still connected with this incredibly unique #Earth? Thank you @jonathan-watts.bsky.social #COP30 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Today, Trump's DOI opened the entire 1.56 million acres of the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas leasing. But the administration's agenda for the Arctic doesn't end here. It aims to maximize drilling across the entire region.

We are killing them for trophies, we are killing them to get their land, we are killing them because we can! We are Homo exstinctor! #extinction #trophyhunting #ecocide #animalrights www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This is nothing else than "den Bock zum Gärtner machen" or to "let the fox guard the henhouse."

What role has the idea of progress played in building civilization and its gifts, as well as dispossessing, enslaving, or even eradicating billions of people and animals over the last 5,000 years? This interview with @popnbalance.bsky.social gives a good overview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij2X...

There is no need for police in a just, equal and inclusive society. Police is needed to sustain injustice, inequality and segregation. If people can meet their needs in a community-based just society they won't misbehave, and no police is needed.

We’re not “on the verge” of a sixth mass extinction—we’re nearing the end. It began ~2.5 M yrs ago with early hominins & has only sped up. In 50 yrs we’ve lost >70 % of wild animals. Whole ecosystems are vanishing, triggering an irreversible extinction avalanche. apple.news/ALC9d_wZ-Rgi...

"Of the various causes of collapse the one most overlooked, and potentially the most harmful, is delusion - the capacity of humans to believe whatever they wish, regardless of the facts. A species that does not believe it is in danger is very unlikely to avoid it." cribb.substack.com/p/died-of-a-...

Seven of nine planetary boundaries now breached – ocean acidification joins the danger zone," says PIK director Johan Rockström presenting the key findings of the Planetary Health Check 2025 today. #PlanetaryBoundaries ➡️ www.pik-potsdam.de/en/news/late...

Planetary boundaries show rising risks + urgency to protect Earth’s life-support systems, states PIK scientist Boris Sakschewski, lead author of the 2025 Planetary Health Check. Scientists monitor these boundaries to track the planet’s condition. Report▶️ www.planetaryhealthcheck.org#reports-sect...

All wars are resource wars—land, water, minerals, food. History shows one group consuming to keep others out. Nations vs. nations, classes vs. classes, rich vs. poor. Humanity doesn’t just exploit the planet—we liquidate it, and can’t even slow down. www.thenation.com/article/envi...
