The Climate Action Group would like to say A BIG THANK YOU to all those at @LarbertHigh who donated crisp packets to create survival blankets for the homeless. In only 2 weeks we collected 431 packets which is roughly enough to make 3 survival blankets 🥰 @LHS_PC@LHS_Humanities
Nah but telling a woman you won't perform a medical procedure she specifically asked for not for safety reasons but because you think a man might want to use her body later to have a child is actually wild when you sit back and think about it.
And yet Cuba has a lower child mortality rate than USA. The aesthetics of million dollar medical rooms are brilliant but rather useless when your population has no ability to access them.
Africa's last glaciers will melt by 2040, warns the UN, and 118M poor people on the continent will face drought or floods by 2030 due to the climate crisis.
Africa produces 4% of global emissions. Studies say places least responsible for the crisis will suffer its worst effects.
UK govt donated 10 million vaccines to countries in Africa and South America then turned around to say if you get vaccinated in those places, you’re considered “unvaccinated”. Make it make sense. Were compromised vaccines sent to those countries???
So some folks are ok if adults & children are killed by war, its ok if u don't get vaccinated or wear a mask and pass along a potentially deadly virus, its ok when the police kill and lie about it, but end an unwanted pregnancy and now u have broken gods law.
(Real quick, abortion isn't always a "tough choice" or "heartbreaking" and that framing is so weird. Sometimes it's a miracle and a no-brainer and a straightforward healthcare decision for everyone involved. Abortion is healthcare and a human right.)
Evacuation flights from #Kabul are leaving nearly empty.
Thousands of Afghans with travel docs can’t get to airport.
Taliban have erected checkpoints and are preventing people from entering.
Need to secure a clear path for people to get on their flights.
“Change doesn’t happen overnight” is one of the biggest lies told to people fighting for progress. Bailouts come faster than stimulus checks. Bombs come faster than food. Arrests happen more quickly than releases. It’s just a lie we cannot tolerate
