When the degenerate age of this aeon arrives,
people are their own deceivers, their own bad counsel,
the makers of their own stupidity, lying to and fooling themselves.
How sad that these people have human forms but possess no more sense than an ox!
~ Padmasambhava
So get this: the world's coral reefs disappear at 1.5C. We are past 1.5C now and heading for 2C
THEY ARE DONE.
The point is not "OMG all those lovely colourful things we see on David Attenborough are going to go"
No
The point is 25% of the world's fish will disappear as well.
No
The point is 1-2 billion people depend on those fish.
100s of millions of people will starve.
You're right, it could 'just' be only 10s of millions.
So that's okay then. No problem.
In years to come, we will look back at this time and ask the same question that future generations will ask: why didn’t we stop this catastrophe?

They use every trick in the book to deflect blame including, as the article mentions, making misleading claims about how much sewage is released.

David Lynch, our beloved dad, was a guiding light of creativity, love, and peace. On Monday, January 20th—what would have been his 79th birthday—we invite you all to join us in a worldwide group meditation at 12:00pm NOON PST for 10 minutes.
Let us come together, wherever we are, to honor his legacy by spreading peace and love across the world. Please take this time to meditate, reflect, and send positivity into the universe.
Thank you for being part of this celebration of his life.
Love,
Jennifer, Austin, Riley and Lula Lynch
When I started filming in British rivers over a decade ago I looked for three things. Clear water, lots of plants and plenty of fish. It's all be impossible to find in today which sickens me given its happened in such a short period.
"We are losing biodiversity at a rate unparalleled in human history." Global wildlife populations have sunk over 60% since 1970.
We are destroying ourselves and taking nature with us.

Farage attending the launch of a new staunch climate denial group in the UK that has taken funds from oil giant @exxonmobil ? Not particularly out of character , since Dec 2019 92% of donations to Reform UK were from fossil fuel interest groups or climate deniers , per @DeSmog .
“When we take collective action and organise to find a way forward, our views start to shift. It’s not as though we become progressive overnight, but we start to see through the tactics of billionaires to the economic interests that drive their politics.”

Costa Rica, once home to rampant logging, has now almost doubled the size of its rainforest. They turned it all around within a generation. It can be done.
Protect people and the planet.

If you want to know the truth about Elon Musk, British journalist Ian Hislop nails him.
I refuse to entertain anyone's delusions about Elon Musk that he cares about or is working to help anyone other than himself.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll discuss the absolute state of X in January 2025. Since its acquisition by Elon Musk, this platform has rapidly transformed into his personal political tool and a breeding ground for hate speech and disinformation.

Hollywood is on fire , yet still deniers clutch at straws to blame this on anything other than the real problem – climate breakdown . I’m petitioning for a ban on fossil fuel ads to take the fight to the companies who continue to exploit our fragile planet https://t.co/Yxjx9DoYMu
Spain and France have now joined Britain and Germany in asking the European Commission to open an investigation into Elon Musk under EU's DSA, openly (and rightfully might I add) accusing him of spreading misinformation and interfering in European politics.
