The Nobel Peace Prize was won by one of the worst war criminals of the 20th century. The year was 1973. His name was Henry Kissinger. This is his thread of shame. #RedHotHistory

Well “running out of time” never a truer word!

The planet is on the brink of an irreversible climate disaster, but we’ve run out of time to discuss that I’m afraid. #bbcqt @zackpolanski.bsky.social

How much longer will the BBC, ITV, Sky, C4 and C5 hide AMOC collapse from the British people? Campaigners were at City Hall today to demand London Assembly members start planning for the UK being plunged into a far colder, drier climate which would decimate agriculture. 🧵

Kindess defeats evil every time.

On rare occasion there’s an accurate headline about rapid climate warming and it’s always jarring as hell and a reminder how much we’re being lied to on a daily basis.

Feeling like the discourse around around #climate change is broken? Tune in to this exciting new #podcast documentary, in which @laurielaybourn.bsky.social sets out a new story to make sense of our current moment. A narrative that can help us nativigate the storm ahead ⛈️

Experts feared it would take 193 years to reduce London's deadly levels of NO₂ air pollution to legal levels. This week Mayor Sadiq Khan announced his team had defied the howls of pro-fossil fuel and motoring lobbyists to achieve the life-saving target in just 9 YEARS. Here's how they did it 🧵

Not nearly enough is made of the incredibly impressive feat Indian Railways has made to electrify almost 100% of its 135,000km of track, while also growing renewable sourcing. Huge: timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/ind...

There’s still a lot left that’s worth fighting for. RIP Jane Goodall.

The world missed its goal for tackling climate change. What happens next? Ten years after agreeing to limit global heating to 1.5°C, the world is overshooting. How do we navigate what comes next? Welcome to Overshoot. Listen to the trailer now 👇 open.spotify.com/episode/2ICK...

ICYMI Now we know why 6 billion sea stars in the Pacific turned to slime, and, as one can surmise, it's likely that global warming and ocean heatwaves played a big role. If we kill the oceans, things will NOT go well for us.

Uruguay proves renewable energy isn’t a dream — it’s a choice. And it’s entirely doable — if politicians have the guts. A humble professor called Ramón Méndez Galain showed the so-called leaders of Europe and the US how it can be done. 🧵

Assata also loved nature 💚

Govt should offer all workers in polluting industries transition to a green career. They’re crying out for it.

The ad industry has a dirty little secret. Well, actually, it's not little at all. 🌏 💰 Fossil fuels are responsible for 75% of carbon pollution, but less than 1% of global marketing spend.

“Dubai presents the hard-right vision of utopia: a place stripped of workers’ protections or the right to protest, a place of pure environmental dereliction” Good piece on the dystopian vision Farage, Tice & Reform are reaching for: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

topical history 😱

Reeves: "This extra runway at Gatwick will mean lower costs for a family holiday." More happy holidays while you help burn your children's future, thanks to the lunatic UK government which is in hock to #fossilfuel lobbyists #flightfree #climatecrisis

Things are feeling bleak right now, so it's worth sharing how California, the world's 4th largest economy, is doubling down on offshore floating wind.

Great story by my colleagues on the constant political realignment of Grok, the generative AI chatbot over on the other site. This change to Grok’s answer about the greatest threat to Western civilization is particularly ironic/meta. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/t...

Charlie Kirk was a fossil fuel industry plant - @emorwee.bsky.social heated.world/p/charlie-ki...

"Zack Polanski described a second Gatwick runway as a “disaster”. “Ignores basic climate science and risks undermining efforts to tackle the climate crisis. “Labour keeps wheeling out the same nonsense about growth, but at what cost?” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Imagine getting someone like @billhare.bsky.social on your radio show and then spending the entire time asking him to respond to the babbling of someone who denies the basic science. The ABC has gotten so much worse with platforming science deniers in the name of 'showing both sides'

The BBC website brilliantly displays politics ability to ignore the long term, in this case on climate change, to make decisions that are self immolating in the name of apparent short term interest

➡️ Charlie Kirk ➡️ “Tommy Robinson” ➡️ The PR machine defending the Israeli government ➡️ The war on climate science What have they got in common? Their funders - a small clique of American billionaires. 💰 It sounds like a conspiracy theory - but it’s true. 🧵

This is in line with the govt's commitment to climate action, in much the same way me eating a massive fucking cake every day is in line with my commitment to lose weight. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Aviation expansion is a disaster for the climate crisis. Anyone who's been paying any attention to this shambles of a Labour Govenrment knows they don't care about people in poverty, don't care about nature nor for the planet. Just big business & their own interests. #Gatwick

For every 1°C increase in global temperature, the atmosphere can hold approximately 7% more moisture. We’ve known this for 175 years. Many more football games are going to be abandoned in the coming years. #itfc #brfc

It’s easy to despair when Tommy Robinson and 100,000 far-right marchers fill London + Reform is surging in the polls. But the UK — and other countries — have stopped the far right in its tracks in the recent past. Here’s how 🧵

It’s time we believed Labor when they tell us they are quite happy to see countless people, not to speak of creatures, die in fires, floods, droughts and storms, so as to enable the fossil fuel industry to keep making profits a while longer. The old world is dead. Time to birth the new.

Fun to spread the dolar gospel in the world capital of hydrocarbons! (And the Houston Chronicle deserves some kudos for its serious coverage of the energy biz!) www.houstonchronicle.com/business/ene...

BBC ignores funeral of 31 Yemeni journalists murdered by Israel...

🗞️⚠️ Today's paper round of toxic media and their funders include The Sun's article that says the UK shouldn't take climate action until China does... Supported by ads from #Tesco, #BritishGas, #Netflix, #SkyUK, and #WilliamHill.

Karl Popper was the greatest philosopher of the 20th century. Jewish by birth, he fled the N*zis in 1937. What does his Paradox of Tolerance tell us about "Tommy Robinson" and those who marched with him in London on Saturday? 🧵

I reckon one of the reasons much of the media has skewed pro-fascist in response to Charlie Kirk's death is basically that Kirk recognised their worst weakness: the idea that verbal sparring is always a good thing For The Discourse. These vids show Kirk lying at 3,000 km/h to bewildered students

When speaking to Tommy Robinson at the far right demonstration in London today, Elon Musk wore a t-shirt saying "What would Orwell think?" So let's dive in - what would George Orwell think about Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk? 🧵

September 14, 1991 – "the Green Wave has receded…." Issues come and go - activists get tired, journalists have no new angles and are hungry for novelty, greenwash and denial narratives begin to work... #IssueAttentionCycle is a thing. allouryesterdays.info/2025/09/13/s...

Stop demonizing immigrants. Start addressing inequality. Another world is possible. 💚

President Lula vetoed 63 proposals that would have loosened environmental protection regulations, writes @rikardlinde.bsky.social The Brazilian government says it will enable Brazil to keep its promise of zero deforestation by 2030 and to reduce emissions by 67 %. matochklimat.nu/miljororelse...

I urge all policymakers to attend this vital briefing on the climate & nature crisis, which brings the latest science from leading experts straight to the people in power. I’d like to see one in every country, & the organizers are open to sharing the model. More info: www.nebriefing.org

This could be a tipping point for decision makers across the UK: we're holding a National Emergency Briefing on the Climate and Nature crisis for national leaders at Westminster Central Hall, and you can help!...🧵

A warning from history.

Technology makes us more efficient, so emissions fall right? WRONG - because of the rebound effect which explains why emissions just keep rising even as tech becomes more efficient. 🧵

“The United States is currently the world’s biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas as well as the largest producer of oil.”

Amazing story. We need more Weibo Ludwigs wherever fossil fuels are still being extracted.
