I’m about to go ask for my next paycheque in @ethereum because PoS is the future 🌍👌🏽

[Eric Adams @ericadamsfornyc]

@FrancisSuarez @Sarasti In New York we always go big, so I’m going to take my first THREE paychecks in Bitcoin when I become mayor. NYC is going to be the center of the cryptocurrency industry and other fast-growing, innovative industries! Just wait!

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

Well hey, at least it doesn’t end up in the ocean down a turtle’s throat. Oh... 🤦🏻‍♀️😤

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

Yet another recycling fail. Why? Apparently we just can’t make enough money by cleaning up a tiny portion of our plastic waste, so we just burn it for the toxic fumes instead. 🤷🏻‍♀️ https://t.co/PhCIQbZgNQ

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

Let’s be clear. When it comes to humans it’s ALWAYS about money.

If we find a way to make environmentalism profitable we might just save ourselves from extinction.

Ironically, currency is entirely a figment of our imagination, whilst our burning/drowning planet is very real...

The trickle of investment into climate adaptation could turn into a torrent as companies are forced to disclose climate-related risks https://t.co/Wiepjl6c3t

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

Just as with COVID19, we are not ready to deal with the catastrophic effects of the human-induced climate crisis... even though we knew the likely risks of both with enough time to avoid them, we only made it worse.
Are we worried yet? I’ll check the NYSE. Nope, we’re fine. #2021

Severe thunderstorms over central London throughout much of this afternoon have again caused major flash flooding in parts of the capital.

This is the scene at Pudding Mill Lane DLR Station in Stratford (via @R0bday):

Ernst Rauch, the chief climate and geoscientist for Munich Re, warned of more such catastrophes to come.

“There are clear indications that part of the growing damage cannot be explained solely by socio-economic factors but is due to climate change.”

- The Washington Post

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

We thought New York was bad, then came Belgium and Germany. The climate crisis will continue to take lives and destroy homes and ecosystems, at least until we decide to do something about it... If only our leaders could decide a little sooner. Until then, we are at their mercy.

🌏 Biodiversity and a healthy planet are really the only 2 things that we simply cannot exist without. If this is the end of the human race I certainly am not going down without a fight. Are you with me?

⚠️ Warning! Graphic images! 👇🏽

☠️ It’s no surprise that dead animals have begun to wash up on the shores of the island nation Sri Lanka, after the cargo ship X-Press Pearl caught fire and sank off the coast of Colombo.

➤ Please do share this news with your friends, colleagues and followers. There are victims here, and they aren’t just the animals that have lost their lives, they are each and every one of us. This is our home! When are we going to wake up and start protecting it?

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

Humanity is at the point where we are not only unfazed by this, but we are uninterested.

“Hey, your home is on fire.”

@LRStanfield @HeidiHenders Hi Leah, if you want another story there is a huge oil slick off the coast of San Diego. @uscoastguard are aware but it hasn’t been covered in mainstream news media for some reason?! @DolphinDroneDom has footage of dolphins swimming through it. More info on my Twitter feed 🙏🏽

[Chi @TheScubaMermaid]

⁦@CarlosAlvQ⁩ We want to express our deepest concern about the lack of actions to stop the alarming detriment that the populations of shark species under threat of extinction have suffered during your administration.

Do they think we’re just going to forget about this?!...
