The double standards are off the scale, and give you an idea of what power really thinks. My column on why racist rioters get shorter sentences than peaceful environmental protesters. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Contributors to the problem (there are many more): normalisation of flying, aviation fuel subsidies, cost of train travel. theguardian.com/world/article/…

Appalling and astonishing that a rise in the cap of passengers from 6.5 to 9 million has been approved at City - more than half of the flights are to destinations reached in 6 hours or less by train. Fanning the flames of the climate emergency.

BREAKING: The UK gov't has rightly recognised that approving the Rosebank oil field without taking into account the full extent of its climate impacts was unlawful. It has conceded that argument in our & Greenpeace's legal challenge against the field. So what does that mean? 🧡

Flooding in Central Europe: β€˜the effects of climate change, (which) are increasingly present on the European continent, with dramatic consequences.’ Yet we imprison those trying to peacefully raise awareness and limit further damage. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Is it disruptive to have your home, school, place of work flooded? Is it disruptive to have roads closed by flood water? We are only at the cusp of the disruption to come from extreme weather due to the climate crisis. #ActOnClimate #EndFossilFuels #SupportPeacefulProtest

Unlikely of course with Judge Christopher Hehir, unless perhaps his teenage daughter agrees with artists, curators and art historians. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/s…

Very happy have the 2nd study from my PhD picked up by the Guardian. Thanks Damian Carrington We find that "walking the talk" from politicians, celebs and CEOs is a missing link in climate change action. And people *really* want to see it! 1/ theguardian.com/environment/20…

"As pressures increase and the risk of Earth's climate system switching to a catastrophic state rises, more and more scientists have begun to research the possibility of societal collapse." 😬 Read that twice!

It is incomprehensible that we are carrying on as normal, villifying climate activists, when we are being given so many warnings that we are facing our own extinction. And soon. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

It's better to understand the #AMOC risk than to be ignorant. I have videos of 50 minutes (my Alfred Wegener Medal lecture), 35 minutes and 15 minutes on our YouTube channel. This one is the shortest, for those with little time. Watch & share. youtu.be/mm_YZ2juQL4

Bravo to The Guardian for taking a strong lead and ditching this toxic platform... Just wish there were some consensus about where we can all share the positives of a community like this. Bsky anyone?
