The already uninhabitable Earth. Today, Zabol in Iran recorded the highest temperature on Earth at 49.6C. The whole Middle East region is experiencing extreme heat, making working outside during the day impossible. Living without air con. in such conditions is nearly impossible.

“This new recurring threat of terrible air quality from wildfire smoke is one big reason we believe that for a child born today, climate change may be the single greatest determinant of health over the course of their lives.” - @LisaPatelMD nytimes.com/2023/07/02/opi…

🔥📈BREAKING NASA 📈🔥 The Earth Energy Imbalance from NASA satellite data broke through 1.8 W/m² (12-month mean)! This is faster than I expeced. More than many experts thought possible. I called this the most important graph in the world. A lot more heat is accumulating!

Key line from jaw-dropping interview with climate-criminal Shell: "Ultimately, I am in the service of shareholder value." Fossil fuel giants knowingly pollute our planet and escape with obscene profits. Win-win for fatcats, lose-lose for public & climate. bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

LawyersAreResponsible Natasha Walter The #GMC must not strike her off over this. Doctors have the right to an opinion on the catastrophic risk to the environment. GMC should take into account that she only held up a sign! This is not grounds to be struck off. Also a deeply moral behaviour which most people actually
