I feel like I'm one of very few people (apart from climate scientists, biologists, etc) who really get the escalating scale & rapidity of our human assault on Earth ecosystems. I'm guessing some of you must feel similarly alone with the burdens of heart breaking, mind blowing knowledge?

Grijalva: That is why I will sign the discharge petition right now to release the Epstein files. Justice cannot wait another day.

Defend the BBC before it’s gone – an open letter The BBC isn’t perfect – but it’s ours. If we don’t defend it now, we may lose a cornerstone of British democracy By Dr Russell Jackson @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @docrussjackson.bsky.social

Let's stop subsidising destruction. This Govenrment need to stop standing on the side of polluters and instead tackle the cost of living crisis. Some of my thoughts on COP 30 👇🏼 bestforbritain.substack.com/p/cop30-must...

‼️What COP30 is carefully not saying: Despite massive growth in 'clean' energies, fossil fuels still power 87% of our world's energy, ⬇️ from 89% in 2015. It's why CO2 emissions are still climbing. Why the 1.5c target is dead. Bottom line: Fossil fuel producing states are not cutting production.

So the BBC is crawling to Trump now. God help us, when is this craziness going to end? I wish the rest of the world, including us, would just band together & tell him to Fuck Off. Blue states in the US also. We are no wiser now than the Germans under Hitler. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

Harrison Ford says Trump’s assault on climate policy ‘scares the shit out of me’

The living world is my natural habitat and yours & we need to be in it, for our physical & mental health. It's ironic that many studies confirm this, - we're losing more and more of our blue green home to the destructive activities of rapacious megacorporations. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Hey friends, this inspiring piece that celebrates community and coming together to make life better lifted my heart and restored some of my trust that we CAN beat Reform and have nice things, politically. Three cheers for Lindsay Whittle & Plaid Cymru! ♥️🔥 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.

Hey people, I just finished a new painting that I'm feeling pleased with! ♥️ Here it is. One of a series, for an exhibition about humanity's relationship with our earth home which is titled Birdsong At Midnight. I might call this painting No Planet B - something along those lines, anyway...

But do please note that "Affordable Housing" is, in itself, a set of different schemes. And from what I can see about 1/3 of Affordable Houses are sold as "Shared Ownership" - which by all accounts is a nightmare! I think it's the Intermediate and Social Rent allocations that need to be expanded.

Dear peeps, please read this. I'm crying. The housing situation in the UK for the less well off is horribly, cruelly fucked. As someone from a council house background who's always rented, the fact I have a low cost private rental flat is down to sheer luck! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Better late than never, I guess. What took you so long, Labour?

Robert Parsonage steps down as Cornwall Council leader of Reform UK. days after deputy leader quit the party to sit as an independent. <puts on big foam hand with raised index finger> And another one gone, and another one gone, another one bites the dust, yeah. ~AA www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Dear friends, please read this. 😔 We owe it to our one and only living planet, not to turn away. To be uninformed is to be powerless indeed. We have to face reality, no matter how painful, to have ANY hope at all of driving the positive change we need. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Please, let the cease fire hold, and become a true peace 🕊️ I do not feel very optimistic, but not to hope would be to give evil total power over my mind. Millions, billions, even, of us, all over the world, praying for Gaza, for Palestine, for peace ♥️ 🇪🇭

After pointing out that she's an immigrant Joanna Lumley asks why we don't fix the problems that create asylum seekers and address climate change

This is a big deal.

Prince William attending Cop30 is A. Very. Good. Thing. It's likely that him going will persuade Keir Starmer, who is reportedly wavering, to do the same. If this Cop fails, as is all too likely, humanity will fail with it ☠️ It's crucial world leaders attend. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Looks like No. 10 has blocked the launch of a crucial report from UK defence chiefs that says UK national security is under severe threat from the climate crisis/looming collapse of vital natural ecosystems, with food shortages & economic disaster potentially just years away. FFS. I mean SERIOUSLY?

The age of warnings is over. The climate and nature crisis is already here, threatening our food, health and national security. On 27 Nov, top UK experts deliver the official briefing our leaders urgently need. Make sure your MP attends❗️ #TimeToStepUp www.nebriefing.org

This is one of the critical questions for humanity right. We have to learn how to contain persuasive and manipulative psychopaths instead of promoting the to top leadership positions.

Greta Thunberg “I'm not scared of Israel. I’m scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity.” Stand with Greta, stand with humanity.

What do you do when your media org is captured? You start your own. Introducing....The Nerve!!! @thenerve-news.bsky.social We're all-female, journalist-owned & launching next week. Please help us build a truly independent, progressive new media!👊👊👊

No. Don't even think about it! My frugal little water bill has gone up by 33% in a single year already. If Ofwat legalises this robbery, we should do what the French do and get out onto the streets, in force. www.theguardian.com/money/2025/o...

Gaza protest in Amsterdam now.

This briefing has an amazing, top line up. Even those who think they already know all the essentials of climate and nature are likely to gain transformative insights. Please press your MP to be there .

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

No. Fuck off, Thames Water. We've had enough of your self endowed 'license to pollute'. Privatisation of water was the biggest mistake ever made by a Tory Govt. Except for all the others, of course. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I thought this would be 'Tommy Robinson's' next move. He's been trying to jump on this particular bandwagon for years. Now Netanyahu is welcoming him with open arms. The large numbers of Jews in Britain who condemn the Gaza genocide must be utterly horrified at this new development.
