Exactly year ago, @nytimes published THE Weinstein story

Half a year ago, @defilippovale and I exhibited at #DataObscura our #dataviz with insights from #MeToo

Now, the #Metoomentum project is online

I don't know who needs to hear this but you are not a capitalist. You are a salaried employee working in an industry owned by an actual capitalist. People keep confusing simple commerce-- which has always existed--with capitalism, a specific type of economy. 1/

Curious about how much your MP earns? We were too!

So we made this #interactive #dataviz tool: https://t.co/l45hBEOVog

Dive into the #data, filter by #politicalparty or category of #earnings. See how much #MPs actually got paid and by who.

"Europe’s #environment is at a tipping point. We have a narrow window of opportunity in the next decade to scale up measures to protect #nature, lessen the impacts of #climatechange & radically reduce consumption of #naturalresources."

“We’re blowing through our carbon budget the way an addict blows through cash.”
Instead of the drastic reductions desperately needed, our CO2 emissions keep increasing... we’re still moving fast in the wrong direction. #ClimateEmergency https://t.co/rhf18mdhft

If our struggle against climate breakdown is not fundamentally anti-colonial in character, we have missed the point.

[Johan Rockström @jrockstrom]

10 years ago science showed there are 15 known Earth tipping elements that regulate the state of the Planet. Today we present findings that 9 of these 15 systems are on the move. There is now scientific support for declaring a state of Planetary Emergency https://t.co/eahKmOnUxg

I won't try to shoehorn the whole argument into a twitter thread, but to whet your appetite:

"But it is much easier to buy the credit than verify the reduction"

"Yet too many organisations are giving the impression of instant gratification. That is false advertising."

Yesterday @WMO reported another record level of CO₂ in the atmosphere at 407.8 ppm. The main reason for this is the human burning of fossil fuels which is currently going at about ~1200 tonnes of CO₂ per second

95% of the oldest, thickest sea ice has disappeared since 1984.

Researchers say climate change is to blame for continued loss.
Q: If you subtract 95% from something, what’s left?
A: An environmental crisis.@wef

#DataViz for the people who still can't understand why you just can't "work hard" to become a billionaire...

#Inequality

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Exposure (people, infrastructure, buildings, historical monuments) + vulnerability (low-lying land, subsidence) + natural variability (high tide) = danger

+ human-induced climate change (sea level rise) = disaster

Climate change is a threat multiplier

[Amazon Watch @amazonwatch]

"Brazilian indigenous leaders pleaded Tuesday with European lawmakers to protect the Amazon and the communities living there, warning that the West's insatiable appetite was risking the health of the planet."

“The Red Deal asserts that the fight for climate justice must center Native people when it comes to the issues that disproportionately impact Native communities.”

Shout out to the Indigenous organizers fighting to bring Native communities to the front.
