Today we've launched a Shadow Cabinet! Green Councillors will be pressing the council for the bold action the city needs, whether on housing, transport or the climate emergency. bristolgreenparty.org.uk/bristol-greens…

"While it has long been recognized that the climate system has thresholds or tipping points beyond which humans stand to lose control, scientists did not hide their alarm. One climatologist said the prospect opened up by the heat dome 'blows my mind.'" theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Europe's biomass loophole is heating the planet and wrecking forest communities in the American southeast. It's both bad physics and racist. Thanks to CNN for calling it out Dogwood Alliance cnn.com/interactive/20…

A reminder that the Sunrise Movement, Extinction Rebellion, and FridaysForFuture were started by individual people making decisions and taking actions. So was every fossil fuel corporation. Individuals, and their choices and actions, absolutely do matter. Your choices matter.

”Approvals for companies to drill for oil and gas on U.S. public lands are on pace this year to reach their highest level since George W. Bush was president.” We’re not only subsidising the climate and ecological crisis - we’re speeding it up. #MindTheGap apnews.com/article/joe-bi…
