I'm hugely grateful to fellow psychiatrists who see #climate and #ecological crisis for what it is: the greatest mental health crisis of the age...
From air pollution linked to dementia, PTSD after flooding, suicide risk in extreme heat and the immense psychological impact of famine, conflict, social breakdown, displacement and betrayal by govts. The literal end of the world...
Collective suicide according to UN sec gen @antonioguterres More accurately mass murder. I'm constantly shocked that anyone is talking about anything else.

FEEL BETTER:

Since our mid-March call, 165 companies have put their hand up with no promises, just 'give us the specs'.

77 made vents/masks/shields/gowns/swabs proposals.

25 are now in some stage of production.

Millions of PPEs, thousands of Ventilators.

#StepUP #COVID19
I am sharing because I want everyone to see what we are seeing every single day here.

This is not window dressing. @Lavaltool made tools for masks without being asked, Mitchell Plastics has made 100k face shields without a PO, @CavalierTool has been working around the clock too.
My team have been in contact with government officials &companies around the clock & around the world 7 days a week for over a month.

We are all on the same spinning rock circling a fireball. We are born and we die.

The only thing that matters is how we treat each other.

Out of 156 human beings at #migrantpersecutionprotocols court today in San Diego, only 4 (all from the same family) are represented by an attorney. This means 152 people entered the US this morning to face immigration court alone #thisisnotjustice #dueprocessdenied (thread 1/?)
Sitting in court waiting for IJ O’Connor to come out and a baby is screaming. The “detention officers” from the private security company who are tasked with detaining #mpp families while they go to court are handing out diapers.
Only #mpp cases being heard in San Diego today & a few detained merits by video conference. Each judge has 40+ people on their afternoon docket. Babies & toddlers are crying as we wait for the judge to come in. One mom is breastfeeding her toddler to get him to stop crying.

1} My Dear Friend Geri,

With all due respect to current #NonProfits serving Refugees & Immigrants - their Branding & Messaging are #Tragically #Weak.

#OurAmericanKids🇺🇸 are BEING #SCAPEGOATED & #WE, the Liberals of #OurCountry we call the United States of America...
2} ...get OUR #Truthful-#Propaganda #LUNCH handed to us - #EVERY #DAMNED #TIME there's a watershed political issue.

My opinion as a 25-year #Duke MBA-trained-#Strategist, is that "Dreamers" is a well-intentioned, but desperately INEFFECTIVE MONIKER for #OurAmericanKids. Scapegoats for American Fascists
3} My dog #Sadie is a very #Active #Dreamer. Hitler #Dreamed about ruling an #AryanPlanet.

Un-@realDonaldTrump dreams of building a wall "SO fucking HIGH," that planes can't #LAND in #Texas without traveling 100-miles North of our Southern Border - just to pull a #giant U-ey✈️ Hitler Dreamed of an Aryan Planet-Earth.U-Turn in the sky

Just got to Davos. Ready to fill the leadership vacuum with big ideas. My focus will be on privilege and women. Only going to #womanels #methree. Also, my alligator-skin boots got snow on them, anyone have a blow drier or an FT I can use to dry them off?
Thread 1/n: Small ideas feel big when I'm in my Gulfstream, so here it goes: We have to innovate on innovation. The 7th industrial revolution disrupts AND displaces. Artificial intelligence and blockchain can only solve resurgent populism with #compassion.
2/n We elites are critical to making this debate glocalized. Thought leadership also involves thought stewardship. Communities form the core of our economies. Blue collar workers must be re-conceived as #newcollar workers. Code is key.
