Only one of these forms of climate related disruption causes politicians to make loud and urgent proclamations about safety and the impact on ordinary people. And its not the one that has killed 13 people and left 20,000 people homeless.

If we priced externalities into the cost of fossil fuels, it’s not a profitable business. The cleanup costs in California will be triple the industry’s projected profits, and that doesn’t even include cleaning up CO₂ and CH₄ from the atmosphere. propublica.org/article/cost-o…

The blue and green lines show how much emissions have to drop to stay within our agreed climate targets It's just beyond bizarre that, for most mainstream commentators, the way to achieve this drop is 'grow the economy' Something about that slope just doesn't scream growth

We ran into Baroness Jenny Jones on her way back to the House of Lords at The Big One to ask her opinion on artificial turf; “A complete ban” was her response. It’s a no-brainer, right, Defra UK ? Ed Miliband ? Jim McMahon OBE MP ? Wes Streeting ? #ToxicTurf #FossilFuel #PFAS

Those who have contributed least to the climate crisis are suffering the most. This is immoral. #G7 countries must demonstrate #ClimateAction leadership. Phase out fossil fuels and ramp up renewables – now. Deliver climate justice and support developing countries.

"The only demonstrations that really work are disruptive ones." Gary Lineker believes disruptive climate protesters could be considered "heroes" if the world takes action against the climate crisis, and says "it's very worrying" people are being arrested for protesting.

💀 One of these images shows an environmental disaster from a UK fossil fuel site. Our government wants to license 100 more. 🟠 The other shows biodegradable cornstarch dyed with vegan food colouring in a temporary garden. Which one are you going to get upset about today?

Global carbon inequality. Those who emit the least lose the most from climate change, while those who emit the most lose the least.

After release from custody today I was given bail conditions not to protest on any road in the UK. Marching is a legal form of protest and has always been a part of our democratic process. Our freedom and democracy is under threat from this government.

Barclays is Europe's biggest fossil fuel funder. Investing over $68.34 billion between 2020 - 2022. The CEO of Barclays in bed with big oil this weekend, in Colchester. We had lots of great outreach, with some members of the public deciding to switch banks!
