🌊 Here's Portrait #9, and Lea's message is that our #ocean is full of 'Not only algae, but also #plastic.' The question is, will it drag us all down with it?

We'll be sharing her message at #UNOC3 in 2025. Want to help? We're fundraising here: https://t.co/0p6K8Nov26 🙏

⏳ In Portrait 6, Kalle urges decision-makers to 'ACT NOW.' #Plastic is choking our #oceans and #microplastics are in our bodies! These images will be shown at the #UNOC3 in 2025, and we're raising funds for the project at https://t.co/FQbFHSAZYy 🙏

🌔 #Mining on the #Moon is on the horizon. But who decides who can mine and where? And how much is too much? @Sharei_SM and @Filijovic_M join Dr Salman Hameed in this episode of 'Chai on the Moon,' and propose a UN Parliament to decide these issues: https://t.co/VCwwz8usLt

It's #WorldSpaceWeek - so let's talk about how we can ensure that #space's resources benefit us all. In @Sharei_SM and @Filijovic_M's article for @SpaceNews_Inc , they propose the creation of a United Nations Parliament to oversee space activities: https://t.co/PuyyzceQd0

🐙 It's #WorldOctopusDay! They are first-class problem-solvers and escape artists, but they can't evade growing threats from human activities. Avoid seafood, skip single-use #plastic, and spread awareness about their importance to help protect them.

Ocean Vision #9: Let’s imagine positive change, celebrate happy wins for the ocean and feel connected to nature together!

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Lots of people in touch this morning about sewage across SE Cornwall.

One of the sites is Kingsand, where I joined charity swimmers just two days ago. This is unacceptable and I will be writing to South West Water to request a meeting to discuss these incidents further.

[#BreakFreeFromPlastic @brkfreeplastic]

Thanks to @JenMcDermottAP for lifting up the voices of those most impacted by the plastics crisis, incl. Jo Banner (@project_descend), Juressa Lee (@GreenpeaceNZ) & Vi Waghiyi (@ak_action)! Read the latest #PlasticsTreaty negotiations updates in @AP. @UNEP https://t.co/lRwkQtBEeB

@rhys_isterix @MaurtenOfficial wtf is that?! Crazy #unsustainable

Here is the full video of my protest today disrupting the UN High Level Plenary Session of #COP28UAE. They detained me for over 30 minutes after this protest. My only crime- Asking to Phase Out Fossil Fuels, the top cause of climate crisis today. Now they kicked me out of COP28.

@GWRHelp Thanks. I wouldn’t mind so much if there was a warning so you could plan around it. Feel sorry for anyone stuck on here for a longer journey than I (only 4 hours!), or those who’re older or have blood sugar issues. Supposed to be Great Western Railway, not Great London Railway 😅

[Rosie Hendry @rosehendry]

@GWRHelp Very disappointed to get on the Penzance service from Bristol and discover there’s no absolutely catering service of any kind on these trains, unless they run to or from London! So, anyone going from Wales to Cornwall can’t even get a cup of tea for all those hours. 😬

The F***ers are after the RSPB because they dare criticise their pollution for profit.

RT if you stand with the RSPB against these scum, they need throwing in the rivers they have filled with Sh*t.

(1/4) 🦈WONDERFUL WHALE SHARKS: they’re the biggest #sharks in the sea, but these gentle giants are nothing to fear. They’re filter feeders who use their large mouths to extract tiny creatures from tropical waters.⁠

This stunning, spotted species helps keep ocean ecosystems…

Middlesbrough yesterday.
Another big skip of what looks like unused hospital equipment
rumoured 2 b what wasn’t used in Nightingale Hospital-
if true-a shocking waste of useable equipment & money!
Why not use it? Doesn’t seem faulty?
Who has pocketed the money from contract?

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke...

A thread. 🧵

[Ocean. Now. @now_ocean]

🎉 The EU just passed a landmark law for nature!⁠ The #NatureRestorationLaw aims to heal 20% of the EU’s damaged land & sea by 2030. 🐬 This will revitalise vast swathes of nature – including coast, river and marine ecosystems.

It dawned on me this morning, as I scrolled, that not everyone's time line may be as specific as mine is. Climate aware people will not be surprised at this🧵but those who have been ignoring it, denying it, or thinking it won't happen here, or soon.
It is.

This is absolutely bananas.

There is NOTHING like this on the instrumental record. Its likely impact is probably immeasurable.

But is it leading our news bulletins & on newspaper front pages?

Nope.
