Cats 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 kill 1.85 billion birds 🦜🕊🪶 every year in the #US

But no calls for cats to be banned

Buildings 🏢 kill 675 million birds

Vehicles 🚛🚙 214 million birds

We poison ☠️ 72 million birds

Wind turbines kill just 328,000 and #climatechange deniers want to ban them!

2018; During a dive, marine biologist Nan Hauser was nudged by a 50,000 pound humpback. The whale raised her giant fin and tucked the biologist underneath it. Hauser was unsure of the whale's intentions, until she became aware of a 15 foot tiger shark a short distance away...

Absolutely astonishing. All of the feels...

Wetlands are often referred to as the 'kidneys of the earth', filtering pollutants and providing clean water. Let's celebrate their vital role on #WorldWetlandsDay and make a commitment to their preservation! 💦🌍 #HealthyWetlandsHealthyPlanet"

Remember, when the fresh snow flies in your city, it reveals how much we’ve over-designed our streets for cars making them faster & more dangerous, and how much space we could reclaim for people & public life. We call them #sneckdowns. HT @fietsprofessor

Today's meme of the day since we were learning about divisibility rules. I'd rather just divide by 7 lol.

[Jennifer Marlon @JMarlonPhD]

Was reminded today of this excellent list of scientific jargon to avoid, from R Somerville and @ClimateComms long ago but still completely relevant, especially as climate change work has become even more interdisciplinary.

[Uneven Earth @UnevenEarth]

Our August readings are out!

We run a monthly reading list featuring news or crucial conversations you might've missed. We focus on environmental justice, radical municipalism, new politics, political theory, and resources for action and education.

Carbon dioxide is giving Earth a jolt!

Did you know there’s about 400 parts per million (ppm) of caffeine in coffee? There's over 400 ppm of CO₂ in our atmosphere today. If you've felt the surge of caffeine hitting your system, you've experienced the effects of just 400 ppm.

There is a comment period open until Sep 1 where you can voice opposition to ask Can gov to not allow Sukunka coal mine to be constructed. This area is an important habitat for the Quintette caribou.

Anyone who has read Wilfred Thesiger's 'The Marsh Arabs ' will be horrified to know that Iraq's marshes are now dry.

I have been trying to make sense of the astounding barbarism I’ve experienced from white women in academia and St. Morrison’s words help me to contextualize the depravity. I would posit that the descendants of these mothers are somewhere visiting harm on Black bodies & minds.

This is not “the new normal”. The climate crisis will continue to escalate and get worse as long as we stick our heads in the sand and prioritise profit and greed over people and planet. We are still sleepwalking towards the edge.
