The climate crisis is a crisis of imagination by @JoBenn https://t.co/fkfUt8BLnG @monicabyrne13

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

This is horrifying.

@othingstodo_com add 30, minus 1

@rabblescrouser @ClimateBen no one is talking about communism - what are you talking about? we are looking at ways to cut carbon emissions ie renewables, reforesting, changing buildings and transport - probably fuelling a market economy.

@larkam51 @weareyellowdot And your science source for that is ?

@FWtornado @postcarbonsteve China is creating more solar energy now than fossil fuels- it’s not a sacrifice.

[Climate Dad @ClimateDad77]

Save for the future, get a mortgage, a pension.

We’re chained to the capitalist treadmill by the promise of a future that science is saying cannot possibly exist.

@aashisjo @rishpardikar Urghurs in China, the Taliban in Afghanistan, the murder of thousands in Iran, the current humanitarian crisis in Sudan, thousands of deaths in Ukraine and Russian soldiers, the hundreds of thousands killed in Yeman and Syria- I could go on. It's all terrible.

On Friday, 2000 people were buried alive in a landslide in Papau New Guinea. On Saturday, Pakistan and India hit 50C for the first time in history. Yesterday, a million people fled extreme cyclone in Bangladesh. Every ton of new oil, gas & coal projects will cost lives. It’s time for @fossiltreaty.

@bmay bizarre, if this was French and Saunders, would be good spoof.

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@expatvibes @Gettingcontext Incredible racism to define a race and a religion like this. Would you say this about Hindus or Muslims after Partition or Darfur or the bombing of Aleppo? All war and violence is horrific.

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@AlanRamskill @orenbarsky And Australia and the US and the U.K too - I guess you hate them all too for stealing land.

@FarrahRiaz @PublishersWkly Well done F -thrilled for you x

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@JOHAWK580356 that is a climate change denying website citing the Global Warming Foundation - laughable.

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@hannahfearn and impending ecological crises. Why would you choose to bring more lives into a world shooting past 1.5 degrees C already?

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@DawnTJ90 @DavidUllrich202 you do realise what happens at 2.5 degrees above pre industrial levels? If not - perhaps do a modicum of research. This also doesnt include feedback loops or the impacts of nature loss.

[JoBenn @JoBenn]

@FarrahRiaz @thebookseller Fantastic well deserved x

[Teresa Anderson @1TeresaAnderson]

These might be the most terrifying graphs I have seen in my 20+years as a climate activist.
