Right now, families across the Middle East are being forced to flee their homes.
Together, we can use our voices to show that the world must not look away while civilians face the consequences of conflict. https://t.co/oYqERPxcpM
France has introduced one of the world’s toughest environmental laws by criminalizing “ecocide” under its Climate and Resilience Act.
The new legislation allows courts to impose severe penalties on companies and executives responsible for severe and lasting damage to air, water, or soil. Convicted offenders can face fines of up to €4.5 million, or up to ten times the profits gained from the violation, along with prison sentences of up to 10 years.
This marks a significant cultural and legal shift, elevating environmental protection to the same level of seriousness as threats to public safety or human life.
The law is part of a growing international movement, driven by activists, scientists, and legal experts, to treat large-scale ecological destruction as a serious crime rather than a mere business cost.
While some critics worry the law may prove difficult to enforce, it reflects a broader recognition that the health of the planet’s ecosystems is essential to human survival.
Natural England wants to remove 90% of Dartmoor’s ponies.
Our Exmoor ponies are next. These animals have been here for thousands of years.
A government quango, destroying the countryside and its heritage.
The largest #tornado in recorded History happened on this day, 13 years ago, in El Reno, Oklahoma.
This video shows the #Dominator 2 surging east for intercept of this 2.5 mile wide tornado, and we ran into a power line and launched the hood into the tornado.
Very sadly, my friend and mentor, Tim Samaras and the TWISTEX team with Carl Young and Paul Samaras lost their lives to this tornado while doing ground-breaking science.
RIP TWISTEX
