First major IPCC report:1990
Rio Earth Summit establishing the UNFCCC: 1992
The Kyoto protocol:1997
Paris: 2015

So why haven't we bent the emissions curve in 30 years?

Sunday Service is a space to ask what role the sacred plays in twenty-first century revolution.

No religion required. Just honest questions about why we do what we do.

Every second Sunday, 4pm UK. Join us:

Everyone can see what is happening.

A man with his hand on the global trigger threatens conflict, institutions are weakening, and instability accelerates. Yet society behaves as if nothing has changed.

This is the terrain in which revolutionary episodes become unavoidable.

Good news from The Times: our grandchildren will starve to death rather than our children. The new worst case is just 3.5C. Phew.

Rough, but likely real.

[Roger Hallam @RogerHallamCS21]

When we talk about a campaign, we have to be precise about what we’re dealing with. Picking up litter is a local act and that’s important for community. But when we confront the climate crisis, we’re dealing with a planetary scale. This isn’t about a polite request; it’s an existential emergency. The only way we break this deadlock is through mass social disruption by shaking the system until it bends to what science demands.

Glad to be mentioned in this piece on why collapse is inevitable.

The news is full of Britain's energy crisis, its burning cities and its sinking coastlines, but fails to mention the lie that holds it all together. Here are seven stories that aren't telling the truth.

We’ve teamed up with renowned political cartoonist Mr Fish to create a stunning set of "Roger That!" postcards—bold, rebellious, and full of heart.

Each set funds the revolution we’re building together.

We are at a tipping point—the extinction of the human race is no longer a distant theory; it’s a future unfolding in our lifetime. For 30 years, we’ve been systematically lied to by the global establishment. This is not just a climate crisis; it is the end of the world. Before we talk about the climate, we must face this hard sociological truth: the system is broken, and we must act now.

A key problem of scientific understanding: it requires slicing reality into manageable chunks. Take "the doubling of CO2." The slice aids understanding — but paradoxically kills it too. Attending to the part deflects attention from the whole. Space. Time. The full arc of what's coming.

So when Hansen and colleagues write: "climate sensitivity for doubled CO2 is 4.5°C ± 0.5°C... Climate sensitivity as low as 3°C is excluded with greater than 99 percent confidence" — they stop there. Slice completed. No return to the whole. No wonder the media shrugs. "So what."

Here's the whole:

1. Doubling CO2 means going from 280ppm to 560ppm. We're at 420ppm now. At current trajectory — roughly 40ppm additional per decade — we hit 560ppm around 2055. That's 4.5°C by roughly 2060. Hansen also shows Earth's albedo has already darkened by 0.5% — an extra 1.7 W/m² of absorbed solar energy. The system is already running hotter than the models admit.

2. Time doesn't stop at 2060. At those temperatures, natural feedbacks — clouds, ice, permafrost — accelerate. There is no equilibrium. There is only continuation.

3. Above 5°C, effective human extinction is locked in. We are on that path.

4. Facts alone don't move humans. Emotion does. We are human, after all. So the headline that would actually communicate the whole truth? "We are all going to die, you f**king idiots." That's not hyperbole. That's the science, unsliced.

Four points on the "landmark" UK report on the elite's mass death project.

1. If it is a "landmark" report which points to the destruction of the British economy, its way of life, and the very existence of the country at 4C, why does it get two small lines in the middle of the news section of the world's main "liberal" newspaper that sells the idea that facts are "sacred"? The point being the liberal elites exist to smooth the journey to mass death being prepared for us by the business elites.

2. It's not the mean, stupid. What kills is the outlier. What we want to know is not that food production will go down by x% on average - we want to know that every 20 years an outlier probability is there will be destroyed crops two years running, leading to mass starvation of British people, from which they will not recover by the time the next outlier hits.

3. The unit of analysis of the "UK" is also beyond stupid. What will happen in the UK does not depend upon what happens in the UK but in the whole world. When outliers happen in other areas - war, famine, social breakdown, the world economy will collapse and UK living standards will collapse. Meaning poor people will starve and revolutions will happen.

4. The "climate" is not an event. So stopping pretending it is. It is not a matter of "if we get to 4C". It is a matter of if we get to 2C, feedbacks will send our kids to 3C and their kids to extinction at 4/5 and 6C. It's a ball rolling ever faster down the hill, not a bus stop.

Get a fucking grip.

Reform won 2000+ council seats. The Greens won 400. While we fiddle, the far right takes power in a 1.5 °C world.

Next week in London, I will speak about what the Green Party must do to build alliances, drawing on my last months of election organising.
