Creatives helping people make sense of Earth Crisis issues, holding workshops, collecting responses & sharing resources. Posts by @bridgetmck @jamesaldridge4
We don't post or engage here very much due to changes on this platform. You'll find more about our activities on Insta and FB - both with the same handle as here @ClimateMuseumUK
Here's to all the amazing groups on the Resilience Web working to help us imagine a tomorrow that's better than today, especially @ClimateMuseumUK who (along with @NorwichEcoHub) have worked on the Possitopia project that inspired this week's #SunggestionBox 🌳

@CharlieJGardner .@PHellermann is a great supporter of our work. We've been exploring creative practices for engaging people with how to create change, with Goldsmiths & other partners. And @bridgetmck researching capacities for transition & resilience in the Cultural sector.
Wherever there is climate protest, governments have been launching authoritarian legal crackdowns
And in both the UK and USA oil companies have been behind it
Our rights - and futures - are being sold out for oil company profits

Climate chaos is coming for us.
Some places face bigger risks than others, but no matter where we live, we're gonna struggle to adapt to events like nothing we've seen before.
I'm a climate futurist.
Let me level with you about what this means.

What we need now is a powerful cultural movement to portray and evoke — in imaginative ways and in every community — the coming impacts of climate chaos.
We should be making discontinuity legible on the landscapes around us.
It’s time for you to respond to the draft of the strategic research + innovation agenda themes for proposed @HorizonEU co-funded partnership on Resilient Cultural Heritage -climate change and cultural heritage research. @ahrcpress supporting @HeritageR_Hub https://t.co/9OMxbfiMc4
Sympathy with anyone whose journey is disrupted by flooding today
This is what climate activists have been trying to prevent
Don't let the media tell you we are the enemy
Your enemy is the people endangering your future by saying that everything's ok
Cannes, south of France, this morning, home of the iconic film festival. Ive run out of words to adequately express how badly the media continues to fail us
Flooding disaster unfolding right now in Central Europe.
Why is it so bad?
This thread takes a quick look at some of the key ingredients of this record-breaking storm.
“We are drowning” says Polish Mayor.
Lower Austria declared a ‘catastrophe zone’.
Much of Romania is ‘under water’
Why haven’t people listened?
And why are they STILL not listening?
Stop new #FossilFuel! #ClimateChange
As feared, Storm Boris is wreaking havoc across parts of Central Europe with major flooding becoming widespread throughout the region. Here’s a 50-hour visible satellite and radar loop courtesy of @zoom_earth
Shock to the system 🥶
Unusually strong cold is pouring south out of the Arctic into Europe right now. This is an ideal setup for deep fresh snow accumulations in the Alps and flooding in Central Europe.
This is about as cold as it gets this early in September.
BREAKING! Tonight, as the audience arrived for the ‘Press Night’ of #OVTheRealThing, an AdVan pulled up at @oldvictheatre playing testimony from those impacted by its sponsor, fossil and arms funding bank @RBC… 🎭🛢️🌎
…until the theatre called the police! 😮 1/5
Please remember the rule, folks:
Some summers are hotter than others, but every summer is now warmer than if the same weather patterns happened decades ago.
The summer of 2024 was still warmer than the vast majority of the summers of Julia's childhood.
