I wrote a brief against the idea of the Anthropocene for @TheAtlantic. Humanity's claims on deep time are unearned, unless we radically get our act together as a species https://t.co/NHSs5TkvVA

The way we farm isn’t just destroying soil & killing wildlife, it’s also driving the #climatecrisis

We need to
•Work with nature, not against it
•Shift to agro-ecological farming
•Put an end to food waste, driven by supermarkets’ control of what we buy and eat

We will hold them until we win, until our 3 demands are met.

How are decisions made? No decision is made FOR you, they will be made WITH you”

There have been so many dark & difficult days reporting this story but some profoundly uplifting things have happened this week. #TheGreatHack is trending on Netflix worldwide. And this has raised £150k in a single day. They are rich. But we are many 👊

[Dr. Genevieve Guenther (she/they) 🪬 @DoctorVive]

This is outright climate denial and I can’t believe ⁦@nytopinion⁩ ran it. Its argument that immediate climate action threatens democracy is based on lies about the science. Truly shocking that you printed this ⁦@deanbaquet⁩. https://t.co/2zYZcRimIq

PETITION: @metoffice Name UK storms after fossil fuel companies

“Fossil fuel corporations like Shell, ExxonMobil and BP are behind so much of the climate breakdown ... that they should have their names on it”

Unlike Boris Johnson, currency markets don't lie... here's what they think of rule by a self-serving clique of elite, lying racists ... my @NewStatesman piece here: https://t.co/dCa6ZJkuAP

This is a staggering chart. Life expectancy is now declining across major Western states. In the US, life expectancy is lower than it was in Japan in the 1980s.

Sterling's fall will, if sustained, squeeze the real incomes of working class families. That won't be "Europe's fault" or "Jeremy's fault"... it will be down to Boris Johnson and his Cabinet of racist crooks, playing with fire over No Deal

[Rupert Read 🌍 🔥 @GreenRupertRead]

You burn some coal, to produce heat. Guess how much MORE the carbon emitted from burning that oil heats our atmosphere,thru the greenhouse effect,over the years?
100000 times more.
Oh sh*t.
Fossil fuels are WEAPONS OF MASS SELF-DESTRUCTION.
>PseRT to share this vital information<

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

Massive financial power is embedded at the heart of Boris Johnson's government.
Another excellent article by @AdamRamsay
God help us all.

Pretty cool that mental health services are going to shit due to lack of funding but the government is spending 100million quid on adverts trying to convince people that brexit, an ego project for rich pillocks and bellends, is a good idea.

[diegosviking @diegosviking]

Sad times. Brutal Britain 2.0.

[Paul Mason @paulmasonnews]

Boris Johnson's "War cabinet" will spend at wartime levels on state propaganda. Because it's a war against you, the poor, the students, the old, the sick, the young families - oh and manufacturing. It's a war for greed and racism. Which side are you on?

I had an interesting chat with @ChrisGPackham about the implications of going ahead with HS2.

Good post here by Thomas Piketty, which includes this ringer:

“A drastic reduction in purchasing power of the richest would therefore in itself have a substantial impact on the reduction of emissions at global level.”

Yes please. https://t.co/qtjChUTVaT
