Don't get sick of me, but the only, only option is Degrowth!

As this article says, this is being underplayed by the IPCC report - it's our responsibility to join the dots. There is no ecological recovery without reversing GDP increase orthodoxy.

The fires still rage, but the media has moved on, dousing awareness of the greatest crisis humanity has ever faced with the usual mind-numbing trivia.

1/ You’ve seen the fires
You seen the floods
You’ve read the news reports
You’re scared
And now you want to do something about it

But what? And how?

A (longish) thread

[Amelia Womack @Amelia_Womack]

Our actions are destroying our planet and we are now at a point of crisis.

We still have a window of opportunity to take action and reduce climate chaos.

We need governments to take urgent action with a genuine Green New Deal funded through a carbon tax.

Hello! We’ve made a new [virtual] Climate Film Club. Each month we’ll watch a different climate related film, currently from the comfort of our own homes, and then gather on zoom to discuss. Wanna know more? Get in touch, we’d love to see you there.

🎉 We are taking over the kitchen at The Radio Rooms! 🎉 this means all services usually fulfilled from our workshop in Spittal will continue here instead. However nothing has changed yet as the move may take some time... we just wanted to share the exciting news 😄 #YAY

Fantastic article by @guyshrubsole about restoring the UK's most neglected, forgotten and depleted habitat: rainforest.
