My favourite Jane Goodall quotes....so many, so to the point, so wise. How different the world would be if enough people listened to her.

I may have found my defining quote. Pair this with my pinned post and you will see what I mean!

Headed to bed, but here's a prelim report on today's gorgeous Sun Day billmckibben.substack.com/p/the-sun-sh...

@billmckibben.bsky.social: "We only care about now—the president has an attention span of three minutes, and corporate executives can’t see past the next quarter. Whereas the Chinese are clearly thinking many decades into the future, which they plan to own" billmckibben.substack.com/p/a-tale-of-...

Definitely the coolest Sun Day video yet! Please watch and share (I promise you'll like it) www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoDn...

When you cover a field in solar panels, you don’t cover everything. And in a warming world, that leftover shaded space is invaluable, says @billmckibben.bsky.social.

Doughnut Economic Circus 2025 is now on tour - with the Battle for the Biosphere, Nature vs Finance - including having massive fun @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social this past weekend, with none other than Brian Eno playing Finance.

From sheep growing better wool under solar panels to matcha prices soaring with the heat: here’s this week’s surprising mix of climate news, and something you can do about it today!

@billmckibben.bsky.social: “people who care about climate change need to rouse themselves from understandable despair and make a new stand.” Gift link www.nytimes.com/2025/07/18/o...

Explore this NYT gift article. Just like sunshine, it's free. My solar panels charge my KIA EV (no Tesla). @billmckibben.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/07/18/o...

Tuvalu’s climate visa isn’t migration—it’s survival. 40% of the nation has applied to leave, forced by rising seas driven by fossil fuels. This is climate injustice. We demand real solutions, not lifeboats. Justice means the right to stay. Read More: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"Representing over a million workers." How much more evidence does the Government need that these issues really matter to people in every walk of life, all over the country? And that climate and nature is about much more than "hugging trees". It's also jobs, it's green growth, it's the future.

Last year, Pakistan installed an incredible 22GW of solar—more than Canada has ever built! Pakistan initially committed to slash emissions 20% by 2030. But in 2021, it upped that commitment to 50%, as it's a win-win: switching to clean energy addresses poverty too. Read more:

Here’s who ready to join us on Sun Day 🙌 We have the solutions to the climate crisis and now we have a movement to celebrate them. 🧵

Major good news from the UN today! Secretary General Guterres shared that China's nationally determined contributions for #COP30 will cover ALL economic sectors + ALL greenhouse gases. Now we need China to turn words into real action, esp. re: moving away from coal... webtv.un.org/en/asset/k17...

Well worth listening all the way through. This is my @greenparty.org.uk colleague @elliechowns.bsky.social MP outlining what the government's Planning & Infrastructure Bill _could_ achieve, with a little more ambition...

Over 50,000—another milestone that should never have been reached. The ceasefire agreement must be restored. The UK Gov. must end the sale of arms to Israel to prevent further escalation & promote a lasting just peace.

Setting the house on fire so we can get warmer now is madness! 😠 environmentjournal.online/energy/you-c...
