We can’t negotiate with physics. If we don’t choose degrowth in the areas that are destroying the biosphere, collapse will choose it for us - brutally and unfairly.👇🏽 www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/degrowt...

Kant defined the #Enlightenment as “man’s emergence from his self-imposed immaturity, the inability to use one’s understanding without guidance from another”. Before Enlightenment, humans looked to God for answers! Now, in the post-Enlightenment, we look to #AI! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The administration of US President Donald Trump intends to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), a world-leading Earth-science centre in Boulder, Colorado. go.nature.com/4pjzUqB

Indigenous People protesting on the last day of COP30 said it ended the same way it started, a lot of promises, but still no real seat at the table ...

"Leaf blowers are the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen." I couldn't agree more! "First of all, they are incredibly noisy." And they cause air #pollution! "It’s a very stupid invention." #leafblower #leafblowers www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

While I was having lunch in a great spot, they were having lunch in a great spot!

Hey, @nature.com, regarding your COP30 editorial, it might be worth acknowledging that countries with a "legitimate concern" about a transition away from fossil fuels have had 30 years. You make it sound like that's somehow a NEW thing.

COP 30 Climate Plan...

Hopefully, 19 countries in #G20 will respond to the greatest #bully of all times by not coming to the Summit "in the Great City of #Miami, Florida", a city that is great because 67% of the population is Hispanic, and only 14% is White. Thank you, #SouthAfrica ... www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

When a judge, who approves an arrest warrant for a person who allegedly committed genocide is declared a terrorist by the president of an "allegedly" democratic country, something is fundamentally wrong! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Does the law of negligence apply here? Or does this amount to 1.3m manslaughter? www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Trump and Mr Bone Saw! This is the #USA Government elected by the American people! Who would have thought 10 years ago, when the US had an outstanding president respected in all countries, that the country claiming to be the best could sink that deep that fast? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A powerful call echoed by over 80 countries rang through the halls of #COP30 during an afternoon press conference today, demanding a roadmap to transition away from fossil fuels!

"The climate needs it, the people demand it." Jasper Inventor, deputy programme director at Greenpeace International! Life on Earth needs it! @greenpeace.org #COP30 #climateemergency www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Wealthy countries benefiting from increasing emissions are like a man standing at a river and seeing someone drowning, screaming for help: The man turns away to add more water to the river. #SIDS, do not hope for help! I's not coming! Help yourself. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Time to listen to those who are "on the other side" of the #climateemergency, the side where a still on-going party of a suicidal extraction and consumption #economy in the wealthy countries is causing great suffering in a new reality of an intolerable climate. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Yes, ending the use of #coal, #oil, and #gas, the use of all #fossilfuels is essential for ensuring a future for #humanity. Why is this not understood by those in power, who should care about our common future? #COP30 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Our Exceptionalism is in our ability to reverse what life accomplished over 500 million years: burying CO2 in the ground and enriching the atmosphere with O2. We are able to get Earth back to the hothouse it once was, very good for dinosaurs, but not for mammals! www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Yes, #climatejustice requires #justice in reparations. And first of all, it requires the #humanright to migrate when #climatechange has made the current home unlivable. And the right to find a new home, as well as support for this #migration. #climateemergency www.theguardian.com/news/2025/no...

Thinking of $170,000 per minute for #SaudiArabia selling #fossilfuels and linking this to 1 person dying per minute because of #climateemergency impacts, we ask "What is the murder capital of the world? Or at least the government whose willful negligence kills? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

These "dark forces", @georgemonbiot.bsky.social, can only do that because we don't create our systems to disseminate the knowledge we have to help us avoid a ghastly future. Join us on www.place4us.net where we aim to liberate knowledge for all! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We know who controls #information in the #USA: #oligarchs and #billionaires. They don't like #COP30 because they cause #climateemergency, #oceanwarming and stronger, more people-killing #hurricanes. They don't want the people in the USA to know! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is why we developed Place4Us www.place4us.net as a virtual companion for a global citizen movement that can break up the power-information relationship strangulating #democracy. If we don't build our own information infrastructure nothing will change. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

38.1bn tonnes of fossil CO2 is projected to be emitted this year! And this is more than last year. And last year's emissions were more than in the year before. #Emissions are increasing, stupid! And so are the #climateemergency #oceanwarming #hurricane. #COP30 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

“The ever-expanding fossil fuel industry is endangering billions of lives and irreversibly altering the climate system." The full lifecycle of fossil fuels destroys irreplaceable natural ecosystems and undermines human rights. #fossilfuels #humanrights www.amnesty.org/en/latest/ne...

“The fossil fuel industry, under the guise of economic growth, have served greed and profits without red lines, violated rights with near-complete impunity, and destroyed the atmosphere, biosphere and oceans,” said Agnès Callamard of Amnesty International. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Fundamentally changing the CO2 cycle in the planetary system comes with the high costs of mass #extinction! Doing more of that is not helping. Doing less of emitting might still help. #COP30 #climateemergency #climatechange

Maybe the first step is to stop putting more #CO2 and other Greenhouse gases into the #atmosphere? Stop this greatest #geoengineering experiment #humanity is conducting! Earth has always put CO2 into the atmosphere and taken out, but never at the rate we manged! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

#COP30 #Climateemergency #climatechange #globalheating www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

3% of the global population was impacted by #climate #disasters in the last 10 years! Many of them without #insurance, many without support. This is the #climatemergency live! #COP30 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

📢Research shows a 267% surge in #COP -related disinformation between July - Sept this year📢 A new report found despite recent research showing 80%+ of people support stronger climate action, increasing online disinfo (supercharged by AI) fuels hostility towards science🧵 www.dw.com/en/disinform...

Adam Weiss, @clientearth.bsky.social “we live in a world where it’s possible to make a profit from digging up #fossilfuels and burning them... We’re at a legal tipping point … the law is going to be the power that forces us in the direction that we need to go.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I got this unsolicited check for $3,510. Mariner Finance sent this check as a loan, maybe hoping I was desperate because of the #governmentshutdown, and impacted by #SNAP. If I'd accept this offer, I would have to pay back $6,218.94 at 35.98%! Why is this loan shark behavior not criminal? #shutdown

We just published a report that serves as a warning to humanity that we are hurtling towards climate chaos. More info here: doi.org/10.1093/bios... and here www.nationthailand.com/blogs/sustai...

Record high ocean temperatures continued across the North Pacific in October 2025, with recent warming really amplifying since the early 2000s. This graph shows the average for a band across the midlatitudes for every October from 1854-2025 using NOAA ERSSTv5 data (psl.noaa.gov/data/gridded...).

Yes, @georgemonbiot.bsky.social, the richer the #oligarchs become, "the more they can bend the state and economic system to their will, ensuring that they become richer still." But they overlook that in the past extreme #inequality has led to #revolution! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The latest very true words from Julian Cribb @juliancribb.bsky.social "Yes, it’s the .. #COP30, .. where the fossil oligarchs toast their victory over #humanity ... they have successfully played the entire world for mugs, hypnotising us into #climate paralysis." cribb.substack.com/p/the-black-...

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.

"So, then the old geezers go off to die and young people are left with 2°C of global warming locked in, out of their control, and both hands tied behind their back" Dr James E Hansen @drjamesehansen.bsky.social youtu.be/XlyWEixy8p4

"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/...

Alien Intelligence #AI is a great tool for #disinformation #misinformation. #Grokipedia is a misnomer. I would think a #creep would call it #Creepipedia.

Unfortunately, there is no #ocean #heatwave. The ocean is being heated by an #Earth #Energy Imbalance now 800 TeraWatt, 40 times the total energy used by humanity. The heating will continue, many #species will go functionally #extinct. #climateemergency #coral 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.
