They told you the planet is dying… and you’re the problem.

Your food.
Your habits.
Your existence.

Meanwhile, behind closed doors, something else is growing.

AI data centres in the UK alone could pump out 123 million tonnes of carbon emissions — the equivalent of millions of human lives over a decade.

But where’s the outrage?

Instead, they blame cows… tax farmers… and squeeze the people who actually feed you.

While tech giants expand quietly… signing deals… building systems that never sleep… and never get questioned.

Different rules.
Different targets.
Same script.

So let me ask you…

Why are everyday people being punished…
while the biggest emitters keep getting rewarded?
Is this really about saving the planet…
or controlling who pays the price?
Drop your thoughts below — I want to hear what you think.

And if this made you stop and think for even a second… share it.

More people need to see this.

Gabriel has scored the same amount of penalties in front of a sold out crowd as me. Can I comment?

[Rodney Marsh💙™️ @RodneyMarsh10]

>In other news: unless you've taken a penalty in front of a sold out crowd you're in no position to tell anybody how they should take them!!

Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

It all went wrong for City after tear drinking bottle prick. Cursed them. 'Champions' shirt chump can do one too.
TV companies need to stop trying to turn our crowds into sponge hat wearing stadium NPCs from baseball video games. Football isn't like that.

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

@MattLindsayHT @heraldscotland Referees need better guidance/managing.
If the VAR hadn’t gone searching for something that may not have even been there and the ref was stronger you guys wouldn’t have anything to write about.
Nobody in the ground including the players thought there was a handball.

[𝐓𝐂𝐂 𝐑𝐨🇧🇼 @nuthatch123]

Put absolutely magnificently.

[John Duggan @JohnDugganSport]

Football has created an industry inside the game around referees and refereeing decisions. The majority of analysis on TV after matches is now around the contentiousness of decisions rather than skill & tactics. It’s mind numbingly tedious. Who voted for this dismal new world? ⚽️

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

The corner situation has been ridiculous all season led by weak officials. VAR picked a hell of a time to grow a pair of balls. Almost anything is supportable with enough angles and time. Football’s been ruined.

[Dale Johnson @DaleJohnsonBBC]

Biggest VAR call ever? Four chaotic minutes that may define the season for Arsenal and West Ham.

If it takes that long, can it really be clear and obvious? That is the wrong way to look at it.

HOLY. SHIT.

Iran just went fucking NUCLEAR on Trump in this latest LEGO animated video that BRUTALLY roasts him over his failed war that he started to distract from the fact that he’s a pedophile.

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

@DaleJohnsonBBC very quiet about the Calvert Lewin hair pull on Cucurella. That one just being ignored or is it no longer a red card offence?

[Gold 🇨🇦 @Goldco69]

Khusanov and Donnarumma 😂😂😂

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

Nothing makes sense. Absolutely making it up as they go. Touch someone’s hair and it’s a straight red put your head into someone’s face a -yellow for both.

[Dale Johnson @DaleJohnsonBBC]

Fans will probably be a bit miffed that VAR John Brooks intervened for a violent conduct red card for Lisandro Martinez for a bit of a hair pull.

But decided Gabriel pushing his forehead into Erling Haaland's face was "not excessively aggressive or violent".

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

@DaleJohnsonBBC Let’s ignore the Semenyo incident then and look at last night’s. How on earth can that be classed as violent conduct? A red card and a 3 match ban is absolutely ridiculous.

[mike smeathers @msmeathers]

Could accept this explanation if the Fulham player had been sent off for pulling Semenyo’s hair

[Dale Johnson @DaleJohnsonBBC]

Does Everton's Michael Keane deserve a three-match ban after his hair pull red card?

A look at why hair pulling is seeing as violent conduct.

Interpretation can change over time to make the punishment fit the crime.

Have you ever won the treble?

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Tony Benn would have been 101 today.

His "Don't arab women weep when their children die, doesn't bombing strengthen their resolve?"

Is as relevant now as it was 25 years ago.
