Let's explore the question:
"How might we take meaningful steps to upgrade democracy?"
@Feargal_Sharkey Hi Feargal. Extinction Rebellion hope you can speak for 15 mins at a Community Assembly on Water, 2pm Sat 12 Sept in East London. Please email [email protected] Would be great to have your expert input. More info here: https://t.co/3AVpCPpyUP
Becca Horn from @CleanWaterActGp shares her passion for cleaning up the coast in Hastings. Privatisation has failed the UK tax payer, the Government needs to put public ownership back on the table.
Do as Becca has, email your own MP here: https://t.co/4kOAvjdxFu
🤑 💰BREAKING: Drax announces billions in earnings from our energy bills
These record numbers come at the expense of our bills, forests, the health of communities and our planet and just DAYS after our Gov decided to hand BILLIONS more from our bills over to Drax.
Costing millions? Climate breakdown will cost trillions. Eco-facists? Would we know/be talking about the climate & nature crises if they hadn't taken action? Govts focus on the short-term to stay popular & in power. Demand a Citizens' Assembly on Climate & Ecological Justice!
This morning Tim Crosland from @DefendourJuries and @ChrisGPackham appeared on GMB, discussing the start of the appeal of the sentences of 16 Just Stop Oil supporters in the Royal Courts of Justice.

One teaspoon of the neonicotinoids pesticide could kill 1.25 billion bees. And yet the Government could be about to let it back on English fields. Sign the petition: tell Ministers to keep this ban on bee-killing pesticides in place. https://t.co/FVw8u8DQu9
“This means slashing emissions – not at a rate that doesn’t reach net zero in another quarter of a century, but that reaches real zero as soon as possible. It means widespread & deep adaptation to world-shattering changes that are now inevitable” - Yes👇 https://t.co/jr9TBaE2ZV
While most are concentrating on the LA fires, etc., a sweltering heatwave is hitting South America. Santiago was forecasting a scorching 39°C, with surrounding areas and regions nearing 40°C and some places even higher.
This indeed is just the beginning
The hotter the planet gets the more it burns driven by ever increasing carbon emissions from the fossil fuel industry
That this simple truth has to be pointed every minute of every day is tragic
Big Oil are getting away with mass murder
In case you have not noticed, the next big "shock" on the "climate" after the recent admission of going over 1.5C, is going to be the final confirmation that massive ice melt is now locked in for the Antarctic - and 5 metres of sea level rise in the next century is now the main scenario. Of course it will be some time before it is spelt out as clearly as that.
Reading "climate science" is a bit like looking at statements from some authoritarian state. You have to attend to each word to get that hint that things are a lot worse than they actually are. So much worse in fact that civilisation is now going to collapse. Of course, that is pure speculation!

Climate scientist Peter Kalmus (@ClimateHuman) talks about leaving Los Angeles two years ago due to the risk of climate-fueled wildfires. He says the devastation unfolding in Southern California now is even worse than he feared and warns, "This is still just the beginning."
NASA Climate scientist @ClimateHuman warning a few years back that ‘we are going to lose everything’.
Many people in Los Angeles have now lost everything.
And many more people in other cities are going to lose everything.
Because we are not listening.
