Unity and visibility of mass climate action support

[Colours4climate @colours4climate]

#climate #ClimateJustice Inside society's grid is where love/rage burns best for climate action. We are the revolt in the grid...we have science, leaders, opinion, action, us...and we need bonds across all, like one colour...Do what u do, and do this. https://t.co/xCsdF04Vd1

I thought this country was built by
Europeans, escaping living under the rule of a King, to establish a New World governed by the people.
Currently we have a president who calls Himself.
Our King
If this is a joke,
I'm not laughing

"Lawyers for Reed will argue on Tuesday in the court of appeal that cleaning up individual rivers and streams devastated by pollution is administratively unworkable."

So saving England's rivers is "administratively unworkable".
Someone needs to get a grip on this and quickly. Idiotic decision from beginning to end.

I've written to @RachelReevesMP about the financial struggles facing councils across the country & the impossible choices they're having to make. Public services have been cut to the bone & we're all feeling the impact. We need to see a wealth tax, not further cuts.

[Adrian Ramsay MP @AdrianRamsay]

Water companies face far greater penalties for insolvency or mismanagement than they do for polluting our rivers & beaches. I want to change that by amending the Water (Special Measures) Bill so pollution is treated equally seriously

They should deliver for customers & the environment

Many Americans turned to Trump because they believed he would unrig the system.But he’s filling his White House with the billionaires who benefit most by keeping it rigged.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Vast inequalities are an unmistakable signal that something is deeply wrong with our social, economic, political and financial systems.

Inequalities can be beaten — if we commit to policies that promote equity rather than clinging to the same failed approaches.

NO HALF MEASURES. WE MUST HALVE EMISSIONS BY 2030. #ClimateCrisis

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

On CBC last night, I spelt out the moral case to keep on trying, however hard it might be. Defending the living planet is not an option we can abandon. Ultimately, it is all that counts.

The mainstream media may not discuss it, but here's the fact:

Three people —Musk, Bezos & Zuckerberg — now own more wealth than the bottom half of American society.

A handful of corporations control what is produced & the prices we pay.

Capitalism is broken.

[Roger Hallam @RogerHallamCS21]

"We need to make 2025 the year that scientists, activists and all who care about the future of our planet mobilise together, to demand that our leaders, and governments around the world, treat climate breakdown as the desperate emergency it is, and act accordingly to slash emissions as the science demands – by at least 45% (compared with 2010) by 2030."

Israel just assassinated Ahlam Al Nafed, one of the last remaining journalists who was documenting the genocide in northern Gaza.

In her brief life she displayed more courage than hundreds of Western journalists who have remained silent in the face of world-historical crimes.

"Humanity’s war on nature is ultimately a war on ourselves.
It’s time for the world to adopt a far-reaching biodiversity framework — a true peace pact with nature — and deliver a green, healthy future for all." @antonioguterres

No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

[Prof Michael E. Mann @MichaelEMann]

Yes. @ExxonMobil's own scientists DID predict how much the planet would warm given continued fossil fuel burning. And they DID warn us about the "potentially catastrophic events" that would result from that warming in their 1982 internal memo.

“Ruthless” public spending cuts would be a disaster for the UK - draining demand from the economy, potentially leading to recession & causing untold misery & impoverishment in the process. If Labour make “ruthless” cuts, they might find those who elected them equally ruthless…

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

"Why are electricity prices so high if renewables are so cheap?" I have been asked.

The main reason: expensive fossil gas still sets the price 63% of the time in wholesale electricity markets in EU27 & >90% in some countries.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

it is quite astonishing when you think about it.

For the next three months all of the money from your water bill will be spent on nothing but debt interest payments and dividends.

Not fixing the sewage system, not securing London's water supply, not providing a better service but greed, proffering and financial engineering.

And what was @Ofwat doing when all of this was going on?
