With summer in Cornwall about to start, this BBC programme from 1974 is fascinating, and the concerns expressed then are still valid today. https://t.co/8RBGC5DhCp

The European factory fishing industry and its political sponsors now accusing *birds* of causing the collapse of fish stocks says it all really.

This is what the conservation movement is up against.

Incredible, yet also heartbreaking: This crayfish cuts off his own claw (which will grow back) to escape boiling to death. 😨

His will to live is STRONG. Never underestimate that — *especially* in animals who some people consider to be “food.” 🧡

@MrMatthewTodd I think the average Joe is still clueless about the impending impact, and the media are wholly responsible for that. People either know nothing about it or, due to news stories like that one, dismiss it as nonsense.

Just moments after birth, baby chicks are crushed, suffocated, or ground up alive just because they're male and can't lay eggs. THAT is what you're paying for every time you buy a carton of eggs 💔 #NationalEggDay

@ProfBillMcGuire Industries are obsessed with finding tech fixes that let them avoid changing their decades-old habits. They want a fat-busting pill so they can keep having their cake and eating it too.

[Ryan Ball 🐋🪴 @ryanleeball]

We should be beyond this in the 21st century - especially within the United Kingdom. Shame on us.

🔴🐒 Esta es la escalofriante realidad que se esconde detrás de muchos de los medicamentos que utilizamos cada día.

🔍 Las pruebas que están saliendo a la luz desde el Reino Unido están destapando una de las industrias más opacas y herméticas del mundo, revelando prácticas que durante décadas han permanecido ocultas al escrutinio público.

Una investigación que ya está movilizando a miles de personas en todo el planeta para exigir transparencia, responsabilidad y un cambio urgente✊

➡️ Firma en https://t.co/hHYOQ1W1mc y ayúdanos a exigir el fin de estas pruebas y la transición hacia métodos sin animales.
➡️ ¡Comparte para visibilizar lo que aún intentan ocultar!

Animals fight for their lives, yet people still say they don’t care about dying. 😔

The reality is - they do. We just choose not to see it. 💔

@EndBirdShooting They can't be neutral on the shooting of one bird species while wholeheartedly condemning the shooting of others. https://t.co/wCnJ6jzDOU

@AndrewGold_ok @MichaelButtonX In just 50 seconds, he demonstrated a lack of understanding regarding the severe consequences of rapid climate change, specifically concerning biodiversity loss, agricultural failure, and large-scale human displacement. The planet will always be here, but we may not.

[Ryan Ball 🐋🪴 @ryanleeball]

@EndBirdShooting It's a wild legal loophole in which pheasants flip from being livestock to wild birds and back and forth, allowing the industry to do pretty much as they wish.

[Animal Save Movement @animalsavemvmt]

When you look into the eyes of an animal who is about to be brutally killed, it lights a fire in your soul. While we cannot change the fate for that particular animal, we can share their story, acknowledge their existence, and give them love ❤️🐖

Don’t look away, join us 🙏

[Ryan Ball 🐋🪴 @ryanleeball]

@MrMatthewTodd We're well and truly toast. People are unwilling to make even the slightest changes to their lifestyles to help limit the impact of climate change. The trust in science and data has been lost and, even as the world around them burns, they see it all as a hoax.

[Ryan Ball 🐋🪴 @ryanleeball]

@EndBirdShooting Something that is bleeding obvious to all those outside the bubble can be impossible to see to those born and raised within it. It's not hypocrisy. They haven't had that lightbulb moment yet that lets them step away from the indoctrination.

[Marc Pieterse (⧖) @marcpieterse.bsky.social @PieterseMarc]

The animal industry 👺Treats animals like objects. The poor little souls have no life. Don’t be complicit to this atrocity. #EndAnimalExploitation #LiveVegan because you do care 🙏

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

This article says climate change is “believed to have played a role” in the UK's extreme heat this week.

As a climate scientist, let me fact-check that.

First, climate change is not a religion. No belief is required. It is about evidence.

And the evidence has been crystal clear for more than two decades: climate change is making heat waves hotter, longer, more frequent and more dangerous.

In fact, science has advanced far beyond saying climate change merely “played a role.” Today, we can quantify how much more likely and how much hotter climate change made a specific event.

Here's the bottom line:

Climate is changing. Humans are responsible. And we are experiencing the impacts now. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that solutions already exist, and the majority of people care - 89%, around the world!

But meaningful action depends on helping people understand not just what is happening: we need to know how it affects our lives (this heat wave being example A today) and what we can do about it.

That’s the opportunity this reporting missed.

And this is exactly why nature loses every time it collides with human selfishness.

Humans are a cancer. Self entitled selfish twats The signs not to swim are enormous.
Every single one of these people should be called out. The saddest clip is the swan trying to roll her egg back under her in the water…. How many eggs will go unincubated because they were disturbed?
