One month after the executives of Facebook, Twitter, and Google vowed to crack down on violating content on their platforms, most prominent anti-vax leaders continue to spread misinformation. New follow-on report by CCDH and AntiVaxWatch rb.gy/iqi2zk

The deafening silence on the huge expansion of new fossil fueled infrastructure in Belgium is a sign that the environmental movement needs to evolve to meet the needs of 21st century. Anti-nuclearism was the thing in the 1970s, but hey, PRIORITIES? Climate change!

This is both unacceptable and an atrocity towards our #climate and future. Saying one takes steps towards something while actually taking steps in the other direction is just wrong, dishonest and destructive.

The anti-GMO lawsuit against the Impossible Burger has been dismissed. Good news for meat substitutes - and therefore for the broader agenda of land-sparing and rewilding. fooddive.com/news/impossibl…

This is brilliant news - Germany is a serious climate laggard with its plan to continue burning coal for nearly 2 more decades. Coal must end NOW and zero carbon long before 2050 if compatible with 1.5C and survival of vulnerable nations. nytimes.com/2021/04/29/wor…

So, how to meet Germany's new ambitious 2045 net zero goal? The Greens want to do it by shutting down other zero-carbon energy as quickly as possible (i.e. nuclear). Are there any better ideas? What matters most is to get out of coal immediately! bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Seems we get lower cost and lower emissions with larger shares on #nuclear. Very interesting, maybe we should look more closely at this technology, what with the #ClimateEmergency and all.

🇪🇺🔥 Is now a good time for a reminder that Nord Stream 2: - is a corrupt project - is not important for EU energy security - undermines EU independence & security - doesn't make financial sense except for the contractors that get enriched from the project - must be cancelled?🛑

🇧🇪🔥 "Greens" show their true colours in Belgium. "The Gents MilieuFront will not appeal against gas power that Luminus wants to build on the Ringvaart in Wondelgem. The environmental organization does not want to risk that the nuclear phase-out in 2025 is endangered."

Former president Mohamed Nasheed of the Maldives - the 'voice of the vulnerables' on behalf of Climate Vulnerable Forum - makes clear that time is running out for 1.5C, and that major emitters need to step up urgently for additional finance and mitigation: thecvf.org/our-voice/stat…
