On Finance Day at #COP27 I asked Japanese bank @mufgbk_official why they continue to fund fossil fuel projects like the East African Crude Oil Pipeline instead of providing climate finance & investing in a just transition to renewable energy. #StopEACOP

If women ran the country, and they passed laws affecting men’s reproductive organs, I wonder what the men would do?

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

No viable path left to 1.5C.

From today’s White House briefing: “Under President Biden, oil and natural gas production has increased, and we are on track to hit the highest production in our country’s history next year.”

Utterly tragic for the Earth and our future. Words fail.

This man who is heading toward Evin prison says; they are burning the prisoners alive…

Gunshots is being heard from Evin Prison and smoke can be seen.
Some families of prisoners have gathered in front of the main door of Evin prison.
How hot is broken.

There's no doubt that each of this year's Nobel peace prize winners from Ukraine, Belarus and Russia deserve it for their individual work. What is problematic however is the decision of the Nobel peace prize committee to put them in the same bunch 🧵

@TicketmasterCS @JulietteLangwo4 @TicketmasterCS I have the exact same problem, would someone be able to assist? Thank you ☺️

Tell everyone you know, everyone you see: We are in a genuine climate emergency, it's caused by burning fossil fuels, we risk losing everything, the way out is ending the fossil fuel industry, and the sooner we do this the less we lose

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Fucking declare a climate emergency already

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Overturning Roe and outlawing abortions will never make them go away.

It only makes them more dangerous, especially for the poor + marginalized.

People will die because of this decision. And we will never stop until abortion rights are restored in the United States of America.

A wee thread about a young boy and the tweet that got away. Feel free to RT.

Three weeks ago my youngest, Gabriel 12, came home upset. His love of woodwork was not deemed cool, nor was only having 6 followers on his instagram. 1/15

Day 45 of Ukraine resistance. Yesterday was a day of terrible news: Russians killed more than 50 civilians with a missile strike on Kramatorsk train station. Reports of child rape. More than 100k Ukrainian kids forcibly deported to Russia. All those responsible must face justice

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

A simultaneous 30°C anomaly in the Arctic and 40°C anomaly in the Antarctic, among the most terrifying events scientists have recorded, was a footnote in the bulletins.
One celeb slapping another: headlines everywhere.
This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a bant.

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

Last week, P&O Ferries sacked 800 workers without warning and replaced them with people paid just £1.80 an hour.

Labour forced a vote just now in Parliament to outlaw fire and rehire - the Tories didn’t bother turning up so it fell.

In case anyone is wondering about the gender balance in Strathclyde Physics, this tweet has listed more or less every woman academic in the department in less than 280 characters.

[Tibor M. Kalman @kalmantibs]

Amazing, heartwarming story. 🙏🇸🇰

Yesterday, an 11-year-old boy showed up at the Slovakian border from Ukraine with only a plastic bag, passport & phone number written on his hand. He came completely alone, his parents had to stay behind in Ukraine.

It is entirely possible to be outraged by the treatment of black people at Ukrainian borders, outraged for Ukrainian civilians being murdered, and outraged at the abandonment of brown Muslims still at war. Humanity is nuanced. I am perplexed by how binary this is becoming.
