It's what we've been saying all along! 💚 This new study published in @natsustain.nature.com shows people still don't realise what a huge difference ditching flying could make. It remains the most UNDERRATED climate action of all. #FlightFree #LowCarbonTravel #ClimateAction
Giving up flights helps the climate far more than people think - Earth.com

I recall we had a period of time where the response of Starmer and Cooper to concerns about these groups was ‘I like flags’
Oxford Clarion@oxfordclarion.bsky.social · 2mo agoLeaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.
We are witnessing a tipping point. Boreal forests that stored carbon for 1000s of years are now CARBON EMITTERS. Heatwaves make wildfires. Wildfires make more heat. More heat makes more fires. This feedback loop is what scientists warned you about.
Genuinely terrifying. And remarkably similar to how the Nazis began their criminalisation of dissent and their dehumanisation of any who resisted. It's happening. In the US. Right now. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

🌺 Invasive Rhododendron ponticum is choking Scotland’s native woodlands & costing taxpayers millions. 🌱 But it’s still sold in garden centres & used as rootstock. ☣️ We want a ban. Send pics to scottishcampaigns@woodlandtrust.org.uk if you see it on sale. 🙏 #MairTreesPlease #INNSweek #BePlantWise

Heathrow and Kew have both now reached 35°C. To give you an idea of how extreme a weather event this is, 35°C has only ever been reached on 4 days in June (26-29th). Once in 1957, and 3 of those were in one year, 1976.

Please don’t put out hair for bird nests. Chicks get entangled in hair balls. Just had to cut hair strands that were tying 3 blue tit chicks together, and wrapped round the throat of one skinny chick that couldn’t swallow food. Hopefully saved in time 🤞

I think this is a better way of going about the disparity between the reaction of media and politics when victims of hate crimes are Jewish versus when they are part of other minorities. It holds the mirror up to those in power and not to the Jewish communities which are not at fault.
