Next time someone trolls collective climate action with cries of hypocrisy and invocations of individual responsibility, direct them to @GretaThunberg:

“Some people say that the climate crisis is something that we all have created. But that is just a convenient lie..." 1/n
2/n: "Because if everyone is guilty then no one is to blame. And someone is to blame. Some people – some companies & some decision-makers in particular – have known exactly what priceless values they are sacrificing to continue making unimaginable amounts of money."
3/n: ⬆️ Ref (also h/t to @thelucydean @YahooFinance for giving more focus than most reports I've seen to the "fairytales of eternal economic growth" in Greta's UN speech): au.finance.yahoo.com/news/eternal-e…

🎙️ I was on the radio this morning @NPR @WBUR's Morning Edition with @bob_oakes, talking about how the fossil fuel industry has deceived - and is deceiving - the American people about climate change. #ExxonKnew #AmericaMisled

Seriously @Shell_UKLtd, what the f***?

Is it any surprise the public sees climate crisis as an insurmountable problem of individual responsibility when fossil fuel co's promote unrealistic, cutesy 'alternatives' rather than, say, expansion & electrification of public transport?
@Shell_UKLtd @amywestervelt @MaryHeglar @leahstokes @KateAronoff @emorwee @NaomiOreskes @MichaelEMann @KHayhoe @billmckibben @350 Toss this onto the pile of fossil fuel industry climate propaganda targeting news and social media (scroll through threads to explore my growing compilation): twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
@Shell_UKLtd @amywestervelt @MaryHeglar @leahstokes @KateAronoff @emorwee @NaomiOreskes @MichaelEMann @KHayhoe @billmckibben @350 Oh this one definitely goes on the pile too. h/t @catcrawley!

OUT NOW: #AmericaMisled, a new report from colleagues & I synthesizing a decade+ of research showing how the fossil fuel industry deliberately denied Americans their right to be accurately informed about climate change, & how to fight back. THREAD

bit.ly/americamisled
2/n: The goal of this report from @mason4c, @Harvard & @BristolUni is not novel scholarship, but to raise awareness about what we know: that the fossil fuel industry has deliberately polluted the information landscape, undermining Americans' chances of a just & stable future.
3/n: Here and below are some quick takeaways from this report co-authored by @johnfocook @STWorg @NaomiOreskes @maibached & myself...

Next time someone annoyingly asks you - Melody itni Chocolaty kyun hai?
Send them this.

Thread (1/n)
First of all, Melody uses Soy-Lecithin which not only helps increase the shelf-life of the toffee, but also controls sugar crystallisation and the fluidity of the chocolate. Parle lists it as one of the ingredients it uses in making of the toffee. (2/n)
Thus the Soy-lecithin helps in making Melody denser which in turn gives us the idea of a 'chocolaty' core ie. when you bite into the toffee, you feel it is a fuller bite and thick in texture. (3/n)

Time for another story? (Thread)
Henry Dudeney was a prolific author of mathematical puzzles. He wrote regularly for Strand Magazine, and collected his puzzles in a series of popular books.

His first book was The Canterbury Puzzles (1907), in the theme of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales.
One of the puzzles in that book (originally published in Strand Magazine in 1902) concerned Lady Isabel’s Casket.

Pic of me 1975; pic of Greta Thunberg 2019.
Luciferian/satanic/MKultra Programming Evidence spanning 44 years, worldwide.
No, I am NOT signalling the no.44; it is simply the math at present. Consider SRA programming for me began at age 2yrs. (Illum. Family Lines age 2-3yrs)...
I'd like to point out both the subtle and overt body language. Long hair parted in the middle is demanded of teen girls if "Lilith" goddess is to be honored. Check.
Head tilt slightly downward, tight, half smile. Check. Obedience to Master.
Locked arm position. "In the presence..
of my Master". THEY demand RESPECT and OBEDIENCE. You do or you die.
This body language is taught through trauma-based operant conditioning.
Luciferian Language is based on body language, signs, symbols, colors, numbers, Gematria, etc...
Their children MUST learn this language.

Next time someone tries to brush aside the issues that affect women’s lives as “social issues” or “identity politics,” remember that nearly 2/3 of minimum wage earners in America are women, disproportionately women of color.
The U.S. is the only country in the developed world with no nationally mandated paid family leave. And for a woman earning minimum wage in America, full-time childcare costs an average of 2/3 of her income. This is a crisis.
We’ve been talking about equal pay for decades, but women on average still earn just 80 cents for every dollar a man earns. For Black women, it’s 61 cents. For Latinas, it’s 53. If we keep going at the current rate it will take *202 years* to close the global gender pay gap.

One thing in the way of effective action on our #climate crisis (and our toxics crisis, our biodiversity crisis, our plastics in the ocean crisis, not to mention our violence, war, poverty, racism, & sexism crises) is a terrible misunderstanding of who/what we are.
Many people speak about this as a spiritual/moral crisis and I agree. But, the misunderstanding I want to talk about is at once simpler and more profound.
(Note - when I say 'we' I mean those of us acculturated into the western industrial growth mindset, which in evolutionarily relevant timescales has only been around for a fleeting instant. Humans haven't always thought this way, and not all humans alive today think this way.)

When I hear ppl saying that we need systems change and not culture change to address #climate breakdown, I think ppl overstate the ability of top down law reform to change culture. Law reform is not particularly effective and changing culture. 1/
Guess what - the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments did not achieve the end of slavery, equality, or the right to vote for African Americans. Slave state culture maintained near total African servitude, inequality, and vote suppression for a century b/c it was in the culture. 2/
Prohibition was written into the constitution. People did not stop drinking b/c it was in the culture, and the temperance forces didn’t give resources to enforce prohibition b/c it drinking really didn’t affect them except philospophically. 3/
