🚨How British companies are bolstering Vladimir Putin’s war machine🚨
A depressing thread.
But an important one.
With some pretty shocking charts.

Husk at tænde for ‘Verden ifølge Gram’ på onsdag, hvor jeg taler med @CamillaTNS, @clausmat1 og @soren_liborius om hvordan krigen i Ukraine påvirker resten af verden.

Det er som altid onsdag kl. 9.05 på @P1radio.

Vi lyttes ved!

It is extraordinary that this isn’t headlining on all media. Ocean temperatures soaring above 1982-2022 records. Once the 💩 really hits the fan, people will want to know why.

My dear Twitter friends, we still eat from markets, travel in cars, flush our toilets and power-on our devices.

We've got a few more years, but not many. You don't need to be a mystic to know the future.

Modern civilization is beyond f&%ked.

Be kind.

Guns are now the No. 1 killer of children in the U.S., surpassing car crashes. Gun death rates for children have been rising for years, and in 2020 guns became the leading cause of death for those ages 1 to 18. https://t.co/qrco9L6vQv

I går gik over 50.000 mennesker på gaden til #folketsklimamarch, flere end ved klimavalget i 2019. Valget 2022 er også et klimavalg. De voldsomme hedebølger, der har ramt land efter land dette år vidner om, hvorfor. #dkpol https://t.co/DEXhMXlBti

“I must say, in my professional life as a climate scientist, this is a low point. The window for 1.5C is shutting as I speak, so it’s really tough.” Important interview with @dpcarrington yesterday. We need to act now.
