while it is shocking to see the ocean on fire, waterbodies catching on fire is no surprise for bangalore residents who have seen bellandur lake catch on fire multiple times over the last few years (1/2)

On denial: “It’s just a problem that you see a lot, ‘Oh, it’s not that big of a problem’ or that individual actions don’t help…The easiest course of action is denial. You can’t just think about yourself, you have to think about the future.” -Anoushka, Kate & Isha

Yes this is another reminder of why I stopped working with them. I remember someone making a video defending them and more allegations were unfolded. They went from 100 to 0.

we aren't saying there's anything wrong with fast fashion, because the people for whom fast fashion are a necessity aren't the issue. but, why must it be propagated that unsustainable clothing be deemed as regular, with sustainable ones a separate category? (2/2)

[sustineri @sustinerico]

i was browsing myntra for my yearly birthday dress (guilty pleasure) and when i was filtering my search, it gave me the option to pick between regular or sustainable clothes. while i get where they come from with that categorization, why can't we just call it fast fashion? (1/2)

Last month was North America’s hottest June on record. Again. We cannot keep ignoring the climate crisis and hoping it will go away.

Whether you are Vegan or not, there is a common understanding that the food grown in the Global North is unsustainable. The people who pick our food, being migrant farmworkers, face the highest rates of human rights abuse. Nearly 50% of farmworkers in the US are undocumented.

[Isaias Hernandez @queerbrownvegan]

I don’t believe in the idea of sustainable development projects that involves institutions like the United Nations, Trans National Corporations, and Governmental Systems while actively ignoring Indigenous groups. There are differences between urban and rural communities.

Funny how climate change is a "we" problem, but poverty is a "you" problem.

[Isaias Hernandez @queerbrownvegan]

Approving a huge new oil field before COP26 sends a clear message that the UK is not serious about climate action 🚨

We need a #JustTransition led by oil & gas workers, their unions & affected communities, not new oil & gas.

It’s like every time a natural disaster occurs there is a scare for a week, because people realize their individual comfort is at risk and then they move on, ‘cause their loved ones aren’t dead, their water supply isn’t polluted and their homes aren’t at risk of being uprooted

happy independence day <3 let's try not to ruin our environment and frighten people and animals with overextravagant fireworks today

[sustineri @sustinerico]

and while the lake has been drained and is being cleaned in an effort to make a change, it's shocking we've gotten to the point where waterbodies catching on fire isn't new at all (2/2)

[Brian Kahn @blkahn]

"The ocean is on fire” is one of those things that you can type and it’s true and yet it doesn’t feel believable

[Tolmeia Gregory @tolmeia]

In the past few days, we've seen - 90% of a Canadian town lost to wildfires and extreme heat, extreme weather and record-breaking temperatures all over and now a pipeline has exploded in the Gulf of Mexico so the sea is literally on fire.

At what point is it enough?

Time to vote the fossil fuel industry off the island, who's with me?
