The ref has given Saka a yellow card. It’s a picture of a sunflower and it says “keep shining” because he is so precious

[Alastair McIntosh @alastairmci]

For a senior scientist like @KevinClimate to have his approved article spiked by a senior editor harms my confidence in @ConversationUK. An apology?

Given Musk, Murdoch, etc: yes, “This dangerous framing is compounded by a generally supine media owned or controlled by the 1%.”

#Supertrawlers are giant factory ships, usually 100 metres+, that catch tonnes of fish, and whatever else is in their way, every day with their kilometre-long nets. #bycatch

It’s not hard to imagine the devastating impact they have on the ocean.

I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words.

I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

The UK equity market discount has now moved to its widest on record vs Rest of the World, after a small reversal in 2021/22. Remarkable to think that prior to the Brexit vote UK equities traded at a valuation premium to the RoW. Higher cost of equity capital for UK plcs is one of the most visible impacts.

Great graphic by ⁦@jburnmurdoch⁩. In other words, Britain is a poor country, with 1 moderately wealthy region.

[Richard Murphy @RichardJMurphy]

We face a cost-of-living crisis created by events outside the UK triggering rates of inflation that many in this country have never witnessed before. In the face of these rising prices the Bank of England has increased the price of money itself. This is bizarre. A thread……

Prof David Ho, Hawaii: DAC is pointless until society has almost completely eliminated its polluting activities…Humanity has never removed an atmospheric pollutant even a regional scale – we only shut the source and let nature clean up. We must be prepared for DAC to fail

Noticed that pro-climate-action accounts were stagnating or shrinking, and that denier accounts seemed to be ballooning. So - I checked, with some help, and....yep.

Elon Musk has made Twitter into a safe space for pro-fossil fuel disinformation. A 🧵
