Every time I open my worm composter I can't resist to spend a moment to observe its contents and think about the almost magical processes going on inside it, all while enjoying the smell of fresh, humid humus.

“We look forward to the Trump presidency,” BP Chief Executive Officer Murray Auchincloss said at the Energy Intelligence Forum in London on Monday. “We think this is a strong chance to help the US get back to putting construction forward, getting regulatory reform in place, getting faster permitting.”

No more hiding, no rhetorical tricks, no more greenwashing.

Business As Usual turbo-charged.

@pvonhellermannn Last year the COP28 presidency closed the „agreement“ WITHOUT the island states in the room.

Tens of thousands of Spaniards demand the resignation of Valencia leader for bungling flood response

“
Many marchers held up homemade signs or chanted “Mazón Resign!” Others carried signs with messages like “You Killed Us!” upon arrival at the regional government seat, some protesters slung mud on the building and left handprints of the muck on its facade.

When in doubt or uncertainty, turn to #nature . It’s full of answers. Sometimes it will provide the ones you seek and sometimes others you didn’t know you were looking for. And at the very least it will help clear your mind.

Shell, a company responsible for actively endangering the future of young generations has published its Shell Youth Study 2024 for Germany.

I didn’t go through the rest of the chapters but the one about climate change is a magnificent piece of crap full of examples of how to frame public opinion.

@FantasticalEconomics Denial is imo already totally obsolete at the decision making level. Of course they still push it to keep the most fact-resistant right wing voters entertained.

But the current tactic now is denying #ClimateChange is bad, laughing at the term #ClimateCrisis. In parallel tech fairytales are told to make believe it will all play out fine, that it’s under control.

This wins time, precious time to sell more fuel and build more infrastructure to lock it in. ☠️

@FantasticalEconomics @phil_stevens

Other tactics are used with the same purpose: Delay climate action, win time.

Perhaps you already know this wonderful illustrated summary by Léonard Chemineau.

It should be illegal to put a paywall on news related to weather warnings.

So it looks like "justice" is strongly dependent on the judge and / or the judge's mood.

After activists received two years of prison as a sentence for throwing soup to a painting's protecting glass, another judge "found that the action [of activists who glued themselves to a painting] was proportionate in view of the climate crisis".

If you go now to the CNN website the first headline you see is about Israel killing another Hezbolah commander. Then many other related news about the conflict.

Scroll down Trump Harris race. Scroll further Space X bullshit. Scroll down Koalas at risk.
Then, only then, you find the one news on #hurricanehelene turning „neighbourhoods into lakes and turning cars like toys“.

Millions are dealing with the aftermath of. Isn’t that headline news anymore?

@SrRochardBunson Even for non US Americans checking such a statement is trivial nowadays. That he hasn’t done it before saying that shows only blunt ignorance.

What would that creep say to this?

It seems that more than half of the German population doesn’t care or doesn’t understand (or both) #climatechange and the environmental crisis and what it means to them or their children / grandchildren and humanity and other species in general.

In Germany, 21st century, the following are forbidden on Good Friday:

- Art and dancing events
- Concerts
- Post stamp exchange markets
- Markets
- Sport Events

And in the state of NRW it’s also forbidden to have a celebration outside.

But hey, it’s allowed to go to a museum or the zoo.

There’s also the weird idea of not moving earth this day…

Monopoly - Oil and Gas Edition

This actually exists. And actually this is one of at least two versions of the board game adapted to fossil fuels.
