Horrific scenes coming out of Himachal Pradesh as it receives extreme rainfall. We must remember as the planet warms more, rainfall patterns are set to change drastically with more of these catastrophic intense events occurring. Easier to mitigate emissions than adapt, really!
This is a baby male chick seconds from falling into a macerator to be ground up. Fully conscious.
Why? Since he's a male, he's considered "useless" to the Egg Industry. 😡

The abominable cruelty with which we treat these highly intelligent animals. They all get slaughtered in such places - regardless of how they were reared.
If you treated dogs or cats like this, you'd be sent to prison.
Yet we have normalised it.

Science is not a belief system
You cannot pick & choose which bits to believe & which to deny
Science is a rational/logical system based on collecting observations & evidence which modern society is based
So believe/deny whatever you want - Earth 🌍 is still getting hotter 🥵

DRC’s government is preparing to destroy one of the world’s most delicate ecosystems.
The reason?
To make way for the oil industry, which will undoubtedly ravage this pristine landscape, leaving behind a trail of destruction that will be felt for generations to come.
For the Horn of Africa drought and climate devastation is already long here.
Millions suffering drought and starvation, 70% of cattle dead, and where water is available fruit and flowers are grown for export.
There is no time to waste. #ActOnClimate#ClimateEmergency#climate
