The IPBES report on #biodiversity and #ecosystems came out Monday, and shows 1 million species are at risk of extinction. For humans, this means "we are cutting off our own life support systems" as Dr @clairefrwordley put it at our die-in yesterday. #RebelForLife #IPBES #IPBES7

Can British democracy handle holding the European elections?

It seems a strange question to ask... until we consider who is running.

We can not wait for government to take action when it is already too late. We have to #rebelForLife and #ActNow in order to preserve all life, and with that human life, on this planet.

Say no to extinction - #JoinTheRebellion!

Les révélations de @discloseNGO ont confirmé que la France se rendait complice de la terrible crise humanitaire au #Yémen en continuant de vendre des armes à l'Arabie Saoudite. Le gouvernement doit s'expliquer et rendre des comptes ! https://t.co/Em1omH0X9s

What does “climate emergency” mean? Let’s define that OUTSIDE Parliament https://t.co/K8fwfzIn0T #green #ecosocialism #extinctionrebellion #earthstrike #climateaction #climatechange #climatebreakdown #climatechaos #environment #ecology #climatestrike #ClimateEmergency

FBU pipers playing The Firefighters’ Lament.
Brilliant stuff.

[Green Left @GreenLeftUK]

We need a revolution, a break with capital and its killing compulsions, though what that looks like in the twenty-first century is very much an open question…

This sort of result shows why every vote counts – @TheGreenParty getting a huge increase in support and winning by 3 votes.

At the #EuropeanElections in a few weeks’ time your vote will make a difference. Make sure you vote and help get even more Green MEPs elected #GreenWave

[Nat Whalley @natwhalley]

Outrageous that last week only 300 of 3.7m EU citizens living in UK were registered to vote in EU elections! Monumental cockup. We've spent the last 24 hours building this to let people send the UC-1 form online. Please RT or send to EU citizens in UK:

[Extinction Rebellion Global @ExtinctionR]

The @CCCuk report yesterday outlined a path to net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. We need a more ambitious target to avert catastrophic climate breakdown. @farhanaclimate makes the case for our second demand, net zero by 2025, to @MichaelGove #actnow

[Campaign against Climate Change @campaigncc]

Ahead of elections on 18 May, school strikers across Australia gather outside MPs' offices. And in a few hours, US and Canada national #ClimateStrike will start!
Next UK strike *24 May* with a global call out!

[CACCTU @CACCTU]

Why we need a #JustTransition now:
"Ambitiously tackling domestic emissions while expanding oil and gas extraction is like putting the economy on a war footing while still selling weapons to the enemy."
