Just some of the many plastic casings from fireworks we have picked up from Cornish beaches.

We've been down on the beach today picking up firework debris. It's odd, isn't it, that you can be fined £250 for dropping litter but somehow it's OK to launch rockets containing plastic casings into the sky.

Looks like an essential read!

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Why tax the rich? The case for accountability and justice The anniversary of a key piece of socialist literature inspires an argument for a fairer financial future that has never been more pressing By Bryn Glover

Ooh, I'd like a Kinghthood too please....for services to bugs, and if I don't get one, I'm going to be really rude about the whole honours system and might even use four letter words!

Good on ya mate.....you deserve it! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Inequality is an enormous problem. The super rich can't or won't see it, and generally don't care. There will be a revolution...

Well done Samir!! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Nigel Farage, who has so far registered a total of £280,500 for four hours a month as a "brand ambassador" for a company selling gold bars, thinks a £10 an hour minimum wage for young people is too high bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia. This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give. How are Reform getting away with this? www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

Here's a clip from when I spoke to the Northern Rose at Green Party Conference about how I got involved in politics and how the Greens aim to address inequality.

What looked like a hearing organ on a tiny stinkbug’s leg turned out to be something far stranger: a fungal nursery that mother bugs use to coat their newly laid eggs in protective symbiotic hyphae, shielding their offspring from parasitic wasps. Learn more in Science: https://scim.ag/4nDrDNm

If you're a National Trust member, it's that time of year again: Midnight tonight is the deadline. It's a shame people have to keep doing this to keep a toehold on historical truth in this country, but here we are. Voting link: www.nationaltrust.org.uk/who-we-are/a...

If this is from around 1940, it's an interesting reflection foenthese tines.

One of the reasons we have failed to avoid an overshooting above 1.5 ℃ in the next few years... www.lemonde.fr/en/environme...

That this exquisite chalk stream should be polluted with e-coli, pesticides, cleaning products, industrial chemicals, medicines + toiletries is a tragedy beyond words that could be prevented by improving sewage systems so wastewater is treated 3 times - enough to remove most chemicals + pathogens

And have been for quite a long time. Neoncotinoids have been around since the 1980s. These pesticides have been an environmental disaster...how very surprising!

It is racism. And factually inaccurate. The ‘Anglo Saxons’ were people who lived in southern British kingdoms in the second half of the first millennium CE. It’s as anachronistic to call any modern people “Anglo Saxon” as it would be to call them Elizabethans, Tudors or Stuarts.

When I was a boy growing up in Ednburgh, we were taught to stop and remove our school cap if a hearse and cortege went past. A simple mark of respect. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

An installation at Lochmaddy explores the catastrophic impact of our relationship with nature and its long-term effects. The work provokes a dialogue on how the rising sea levels will affect coastal areas, its inhabitants and land usage in the future.... kottke.org/19/03/a-ligh...

Are profits today REALLY worth the risk of passing a civilisational collapse-level tipping point within a decade or two? The full impacts may take decades to centuries, but will social stability be possible in the face of oncoming collapse? Let's not go there! share.google/c7MKVknKhXeD...

⭐ After quite some time in the making, I’m excited to share our new paper!🌿⭐ We examined people's climate-relevant behaviors (driving, air travel, public transport use, and meat consumption) and their perceptions of how feasible it would be to change them (+ expected wellbeing impacts). 🧵(1/4)

For every 100 calories of grain fed to farmed animals, just 3–25 calories of meat are produced. This system is wasting food & land while also causing animal suffering. We could feed another 2 billion people by choosing #FoodNotFeed. Learn more: buff.ly/ft7zDCB

We've refused funding from South West Water because they continue to prioritise shareholder dividends over the health of our waterways and oceans. It's a scandal and one that the government aren't doing enough to tackle.

Interesting, of course. The coffee is expensive because the palm civet droppings used to be hand collected in the wild. The trouble is they now trap the civets, cage them and feed them coffee until they die. The coffee is still expensive and now cruel.... www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Wild! This NOAA video shows how quickly fossil fuel CO2 can accumulate. It shows daily fossil CO2 over a 2 year period (2011-2012), starting with a concentration of *Zero*: "By the end of 2012, the entire Northern Hemisphere is red, illustrating a total accumulation of about 9 to 10 ppm of CO2"

People are angry and politicians aren’t listening. That’s how democracy dies.

All Zionists are racists All Zionists are indeed racists who believe a white Israeli to be worth more than 200 Palestinians.

Unless you think that the life of an Israeli is worth over 100x that of a Palestinian, I'm not sure what you think you're proving. Israel has done hundreds upon hundreds of times more slaughter than Hamas did on October 7th, against a demographic mostly made up of children.
