1/"If they recognise our knowledge, we must be at the tables making decisions about the future of our world”

"Mutual aid...programs tend to be run on a "by the people, for the people" mindset and prioritize boots-on-the-ground volunteering... Mutual aid also allows for people to communicate what they need, rather than being told by contributing parties." greeneracresvaluenetwork.wordpress.com/2022/04/24/dai…

The essential takeaways from the #IPCC #ClimateScience report in 10 pictures!

#ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis #ClimateAction 🧵 1/10

Here we skip the doom and gloom part. Cause we all know that by now. Here we focus on action. #IPCC

2/10

3/10

Getting the whole world to #netzero #GHGs rapidly is going to be incredibly difficult. But given how strong and organized the #climateopposition is, we must distinguish #thesignalfromthenoise on which pathways are the most likely to succeed. A 🧵 on how I think about this 1/14

2/ First, we cannot rely on social and lifestyle change governed by new paradigms like degrowth to deliver in time for this #climatedecade. But if the movement delivers small reductions in energy or meat consumption, we need it jackrabbithomes.org/can-we-save-th…

3/ #Technologyandpolicy (and politics) need to do the heavy lifting. Can they deliver? Yes, but to effectively channel our efforts and fight off the opposition, we need to distinguish between main courses, side dishes and poison pills (frequently buried in the side dishes)

Day6 at #SaveTheTree #SaveYorkGardens The 100 year old rare black poplar T68 is due to be felled to make way for an electrical cable. @thameswater @TaylorWimpey @wandbc @UKPowerNetworks Details below.

For those of you who want some background blurb. winstanleyyorkroad.co.uk/masterplan
The trees you can see here would be about 30 years in the future, lovely light, lots of trees, people sunning themselves. It is a common visual trick used by developers. 'Artistic licence'

The #tree in question is this one, T68. It would be right in the middle of the new open space area.

1/5 It can be difficult to keep up with the ever-changing world of #ClimateSolutions, and not all “solutions” are inherently equitable or just. Fortunately, we’ve identified four straight-forward questions that can help you separate false solutions from the real deal:

2/5 Who makes the decisions?
Those closest to the problems know the most about what the solutions need to look like. For any climate solution to work for Indigenous peoples, communities of color, and working class communities, it must embody the practice of self-determination.

3/5 Who benefits?
The climate crisis is ecological, but it has its roots in systemic inequity that is both racial and economic. To address these root causes, authentic solutions must flip the existing dynamics around racial injustice, wealth extraction, and labor exploitation.

I promised myself I’d finish the advance copy of @MarkJaccard book “The Citizen’s Guid to Climate Success” before it went on sale. It’s on sale today & I finished it over breakfast. If you care about #climateaction it’s an excellent read, no matter your background. #cdnpoli 1/

@MarkJaccard He craftily dismantles both common tropes & the false promise of silver bullets that, he rightly notes, serve as barriers to progress—whether delivered by well-intentioned advocates or incumbents intent on delaying any real action. 2/

@MarkJaccard Bonus points for his use of political cartoons & quotes from the likes of George Orwell, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Upton Sinclair, which probably dropped the word count down significantly. A piercing quote & whip smart satirical art are worth 1,000s of words. 3/
