It would be no surprise at all to see this year and next breach 1.5C - quite possibly by a significant margin - and never again drop back

Nothing to see here.

Remember that time when climate scientists warned we were on track to pass 2C within a decade, & the UK’s top actuaries said this would lead to billions of deaths & widespread societal derailment, & then no journalist ever asked the government what they plan to do about this?

In my son’s lifetime Earth’s temperature has increased by around 0.5C & the planet’s energy imbalance has doubled. He’s 12.

Deeply concerning that the head of the official Climate Change Adaptation Cttee, Baroness Brown, focusses mainly on narrow, defensive adaptation measures such as air conditioning - which is fragile & high-carbon. We desperately need strategic adaptation. #SAFER www.myjoyonline.com/uk-should-se...

This is obviously good news but the photo is a stark reminder that there's no such thing as a sustainable car

Reform is a front for fossil fuel billionaires. The Tories are waging war on Net Zero. This Labour government buried a critical report warning of food system failure within years. WE NEED ADAPTATION And we cannot trust this corporate-owned uniparty with our kids’ futures.

We believed AI would try to destroy us. Turns out we’re just using it to destroy ourselves - & everything else.

Food system collapse before my son does his GCSEs. That’s what’s at risk according to a government report DELIBERATELY BURIED for nearly two years. Whoever this government is serving, it certainly isn’t our children.

Comparing the devastating 1877 El Niño that killed millions with where we’re headed in 2026 is like comparing 2 different planets. We should be worried. But we should also be furious. Decades & decades have been squandered, & now we’re on track to lose everything.

Will we choose the billionaire-owned charlatans, distracting us with hate & anger as climate collapse rips our world apart? Or will we think of our children, face up to the reality of this moment & rapidly adapt? Great piece by @rupertread.bsky.social

Always remember what the media was trying to get you angry about when scientists & risk assessors were warning of a threat on track to kill AT LEAST TWO BILLION PEOPLE.

🔴 Rick Wilson's Warning From America: Nigel Farage Will Be Your Donald Trump, Unless You Act Now The former Republican strategist and Lincoln Project founder has some hard lessons for Conservatives and Labour alike

“If warming exceeds 2C this century, mainly richer humans will be responsible for killing roughly 1 billion mainly poorer humans.” We are on track for 2C in a decade. Saving our children means rapidly dismantling this system fueled by obscene inequality.

Shell makes $6,900,000,000 profits. In 3 months. The corporations deliberately profiting from war, genocide & the decimation of all our children’s futures, have our ‘leaders’ in their pockets. How much longer are we going to put up with this psychopathy?

REMINDER: A 2024 government report warning the UK food system was at risk of “catastrophic failure” as soon as 2030 was buried for 2 vital years. Whoever this Labour government are working for, it’s not you & me, and it’s certainly not our children. #VoteGreen @greenparty.org.uk

Dropping bombs on schools. Plunging families deeper into poverty. Decimating our kids’ chances of a survivable future. This depravity earns BP $3,200,000,000 PROFITS in 3 months. A system built solely to enrich psychopaths. Why the fuck aren’t we ripping it to pieces?

You’re a politician. What do you do when 99.9% of the world’s scientists are telling you climate breakdown is real, but you’re owned by the elites driving climate breakdown? You distract with inanity & hate & when that no longer works you destroy the line between truth & lies.

Imagine if MPs were as interested in defending our kids’ futures as they are in defending their right to be pissed at work. 4 billion dead. But sure, have a pint.

Climate? This is the ‘Watching Your Family Starve’ Crisis.

Strapping our children into a car and then slamming it into this wall.

How about a system prioritising this sort of growth?

It’s easy to completely ignore the dying oceans, fucked up seasons, the blighted harvests & insect apocalypse, right up to the moment when these things become absolutely everything.

For: “House and Senate bills will protect polluters at the cost of the climate” Read: “House and Senate bills will protect polluters at the cost of 4C temperature rise in our children’s lifetimes, violent societal collapse & many billions of deaths”

Im convinced the psychopaths running the show don’t care if this happens. If they can amass more wealth & power in the short term, divide us with fear & hate and ensure the poor & marginalized suffer & die first, they likely see that as a win. This is what we’re up against.

We are on track to lose absolutely everything so that meaningless economic growth can continue to enrich shareholders with meaningless wealth. We can do things differently, indeed we have to - & pretty fucking rapidly - if we want our kids to survive on this world.

It’s easy to forget with the constant deluge of horror & depravity that every single one of us is on track to lose absolutely everything. But, then, that’s the point of the horror & depravity.

The gently sloping line at the bottom is our world 252 million years ago, when temperatures increased by 8C across 60,000 years killing 90% of all species. It is a period known as The Great Dying. That vertical red line is the world our children live in.

431.76ppm. Tumbleweeds.

Earth’s Energy Imbalance has more than doubled in two decades. However worried you are about this, it isn’t enough.

Britain’s food & water supply at risk of CATASTROPHIC FAILURE BY 2030. My son will still be in high school. The government buried this report for 2 critical years. Whoever they’re protecting, it’s certainly not your family. WE ARE GOING TO LOSE EVERYTHING.

Trump says environmentalists are terrorists. I say the US is the greatest threat to our children’s futures. Washington needs an urgent regime change & the world needs radical systemic change if we’re going to give our kids even a chance of surviving the coming decades.

Is it really a coincidence that empathy is being vilified & meaning is being obliterated in the exact same moment that science is telling us we are on the cusp of losing absolutely everything?

Remember Earth’s energy imbalance has tripled in two decades. Pretty much everything else is noise.

2C by 2050 means 2 billion deaths. We’re heading for 2C in the next decade. Blows my mind that this doesn’t dominate global conversations. And I’m losing hope that it ever will. Frogs in a pan.

The last three years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years, & CO2 levels haven’t been consistently this high in MILLIONS of years. And so the plan is to drown us in bile, inanity, fear & stress so we won’t properly think about what this means for our kids futures.

What a time to be a parent.

this is the question.

Imagine living on a planet at its hottest in 125,000 years, where CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years & where you have to work your whole life in a system that’s decimating what little is left of nature just to enrich the most depraved psychopaths who’ve ever lived.

It’s almost like those at the top of this failed system are depraved, psychopathic idiots, driven only by an insatiable appetite for immediate power, wealth & personal gratification. Fuck the future & everything & everyone else. But surely that can’t be right?

This is what happens when a world is built around a system where psychopaths control everything. They don’t care that everything is going to die, in fact they’re probably cheering it on. It’s time for those of us capable of love, empathy & compassion to reclaim this world.

Having to continue existing in a system so you can pay bills & feed your kids while knowing that the same system is burning your kids future & further enriching the most depraved psychopaths who have ever lived. Sounds like a recipe for global mental health collapse.

Say hello to Hannah Spencer—councillor, plumber, greyhound lover and your Green Party candidate for Gorton and Denton 💚

A UK government in the pocket of the fossil fuel & arms industry tried to bury this report so we wouldn’t hold them to account for doing nothing while our children’s futures, their hopes & dreams, are traded for corporate profit. But we see them. And we will not forgive or forget.

There is no ‘if’. 2C by 2050 is now all but inevitable. Risk assessors are warning of 2 BILLION deaths. Our inability to imagine this level of horror is no barrier to it happening.

How are they trying to distract you today from the fact they’re too weak, compromised, corrupt & greedy to even try & stop our civilization from slamming into a wall?

The Water Wars are looming while we’re being distracted by psychopaths. It’s all connected, & we’re rapidly running out of time.

The devastating report the government sat on for months & quietly released while the world’s eyes were on Greenland, Davos & Trump’s spiraling psychopathy. Our leaders dont want us to realise all these things are related, & that only ending this toxic system can save our kids.

New levels of depravity. Morality, empathy & truth have no value to these genocidal psychopaths. Hard to escape the feeling that we’re living through the endgame of capitalism. We must end this system, or these monsters will end us all.

Hard to escape the feeling that the world is in the hands of the worst people who have ever lived at the most dangerous & precarious moment in the history of our species. This is not hyperbole & these things are clearly not unrelated.
