@iampedrohgn Thank you!

[Pedro H. G. de Noqueira @iampedrohgn]

If y’all aren’t watching/listening to @PlanetCritical_ you should remediate this now and start! Probably the best and most informative podcast out here, they way in which they de-compartmentalise our systemic issues and show their connection is par none.

[Stable Planet Alliance @StablePlanetAll]

Our cofounder @BarnardPhoebe and advisor Joseph Merz were interviewed by Rachel Donald of @PlanetCritical_ in the @Guardian this past weekend...

[Rachel Donald @CrisisReports]

@_HannahRitchie and I went head-to-head about her book, It's Not the End of the World, and the data omissions which paint a far rosier picture of the polycrisis than her backer, Bill Gates, would have us believe.

@stupice @tucradio @CrisisReports Somebody "rebroadcasted" my work without my consent?!

[James Schneider @schneiderhome]

In @PlanetCritical_ interview, I sketch out the crisis we are in, its relation to economic, social & ecological processes & what we can do about it (Regime Change through a Green Democratic Revolution).

Bit abstract at times, but includes fun metaphors.

Oil is 99% of the Iraq's revenue, earning $264 million per day in 2021. The $88 billion to rebuild the nation could be raised in just one year. Yet, 25% of Iraqis live in poverty. Their president claims $150 billion has been stolen since the invasion.

We need an Adult in the Room to stop these overreacting teenagers we have as leaders.
We are a motherless ship floating aimlessly in the universe.
That is why, as for today, I propose my candidacy:

VOTE THE NASTY WOMAN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD.

[Hamza Yusuf @Hamza_a96]

Israel claims this is a war only against Hamas. Yet in the West Bank, where Hamas has little influence, innocent Palestinians continue to be murdered en masse

Why is the media not raising this with Israeli officials?

Some of my discussion with @CrisisReports on @PlanetCritical_

[Rachel Donald @CrisisReports]

Shutting down the fossil fuel industry would starve the very economic system which ensured our irresponsible and greedy use of those fuels in the first place. Turning off the taps kills two birds with one stone—one mechanical, one ideological.
