Southern Water’s handy map of everywhere they have pumped raw sewage into the sea in the last 24 hours because during heavy rain they’d rather be fined for that than invest in actual solutions. It’s the whole southeastern coastline, basically. We’re surrounded by shit.
Oh yes, I’d forgotten this. Just perfect.
I mean, why do all Tory seats on that map want to live like this? It’s utterly weird.
You can browse ‘beach buoy’, or as I call it, the Crap Map, at your leisure here.

It’s not just the south east of course. Scotland is mostly shit free, as it’s better run, but here’s the entire British coast line crap map. Is this the British Renaissance? Enjoy your beach walk! #ToryBritain

I’ve worked in sustainability for 23 years, talking to large companies & campaigners daily.

No one serious has questioned the scale of the problem for years on end now, but I’m still not convinced the absolute, critical urgency of it has landed. Even with some of the NGOs. 1/
We need to treat the #IPCCReport science as an explosive device that needs immediate disabling, instead of viewing it as a guide map from which we can deviate or against which we can adjust our speed. We simply can’t.

Of course too many companies still put short term profit ahead of long term losses, which are inevitable if they don’t change, but someone else’s problem. But also too many turf wars between NGOs, which plays right into the wrong hands. We have to get better at this, immediately.

But you’re annoyed that @ExtinctionR is going to be blocking some roads in London again. Makes sense.

Today’s disaster is the death of more than 20 people in Hubei Province, China.
#IPCCReport #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency #extinction
The aftermath of the #evia #Greecewildfires. Mile after mile of dead nature, covered in dusty ash. The ghostly evidence of admiring the climate problem for decades instead of acting on it.

Unfortunately, positioning the UK's leadership role on the global climate stage by suggesting British people rinse plates before putting them in the dishwasher and freeze bread is what I've come to expect from this waffly, trivialising, badly run government. Puerile, silly PR 1/
It also reminds me that one of the cancers in this country is the belief we're the centre of the world. If people had worked, studied & generally experienced more international culture, they'd know how, especially post #Brexit, absolutely marginal and irrelevant we've become 2/
Does the US look to the UK in the way it used to? No, it looks to Europe. South America to China. Australia to Asia. The EU, to everywhere but Britain. Our silly painted planes & trade yachts make us look even smaller than we already are. But freeze your bread, it'll last longer.

Houses disintegrating into the river in the Eifel region of Germany.

With the Amazon now emitting more CO2 than it absorbs, this is no surprise.

The surprise is that some people think we have until 2050 to fix this.

White people telling non white people what the most appropriate gesture is or isn’t for them to take in order highlight injustice by white people against non white people is a perfect summary of the problem, frankly.
#racistengland #racism #idiocracy
If one of the critiques is that #TakeTheKnee is imported from America we should cancel most television, Halloween, Black Friday and about a billion other things too. Idiotic.
“If only black people could find a gesture against racism that we white people can unite behind it will be the end of the problem”, said no sentient being, ever. #racistengland
