It’s time to act. And when we do we won’t just avoid the worst effects of climate breakdown - but we will lower bills permanently, help our communities thrive - and give a grounded sense of hope for generations to come.

Zack Polanski has called for fossil fuel producers to be made to finance firefighting helicopters, following a series of recent fires across the country He also called on PM Burnham to stop new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea, including the Jackdaw & Rosebank fields off the Scottish coast

Don’t worry about unsurvivable heat & drought. The government‘s on it and has pushed thru approval for a new data centre in Brick Lane. That’s 565 data centres in the UK so far, sucking up water & energy, pushing up ambient temperatures like there’s no tomorrow …. oh. #ClimateCrisis #DontLookUp

Extreme heat: why our cities can't cope | Opinion

The UK and Europe have been facing extreme heatwaves - Greenpeace recorded temperatures of up to 53C at one London playground in recent weeks. It’s clear our cities are not equipped to deal with the soaring temperatures brought by the climate crisis. But is anyone really doing anything about it? The Guardian’s deputy opinion editor Kirsty Major goes in search of playgrounds that are adapting to our new reality.

liberal bubble? I prefer thinking of blue sky as not a nazi swamp.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

I’ve always said (well I haven’t but I’m saying it now) that all future wars will be fought over access to water. #ClimateCrisis

The News Agents seemed like a decent channel… but this latest post about Covid from them and Lewis is really poor

“vanishingly small” What compassion. bsky.app/profile/covi...

No, Lewis Goodall, schools weren't all shut during lockdown. My daughter had to work at her school throughout lockdown, because like many many others it had to remain open to accommodate key workers' children, you clueless warbling dick.

The dead children represented on the children's panel of our national covid memorial will never have any life at all. ❤️

Lewis Goodall@lewisgoodall.com · 5d ago

There are working class and vulnerable kids who will never have the life they should have had because of school closures. Let’s address that too, shall we?

"Without universal PCR screening these individuals would have entered the hospital undetected, seeding nosocomial outbreaks. Symptom-based or contact-based strategies alone are clearly insufficient." And this will all never be mentioned ever again.

🧵On @thenewsagents.co.uk yesterday, school closures and the lab leak theory were offered as two examples of legitimate questions that were hard to ask. Both have in fact been asked constantly since 2020. But here's a thread on why I think they were wrong and dangerous on school closures 1/12

Let’s be clear here, when scientists say mistakes were made at the start of the pandemic, we DO NOT mean that we did too much. We mean not socially distancing quickly enough, not making tests widely available, and not acknowledging COVID is airborne and distributing N95 masks to everyone.

I realise this is Restore Britain etc etc, but it's nonetheless pretty shocking.

We need to stamp out this sort of journalism in the UK. Utter disgrace to suggest this is news. As a climate scientist I will fight anyone on this subject all day, physically if I have to. It's too serious to let these fucks have a say.

Half of England is officially in drought. Wildfires are raging across Europe. And this is how the editor of the Sunday Telegraph chooses to respond.

An entire article about the ways #ClimateChange is decimating the Bourdeux wine region of France — that never mentions the words “climate change.” This is journalistic malpractice. Not even high-school papers leave out such necessary context. #EndClimateSilence www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/w...

Fire Raging Near Bordeaux Brings More Bad News for Its Vineyards (Gift Article)

One of the largest fires in modern French history is raging near the vineyards of Bordeaux. That is just the latest problem for France’s embattled wine industry.

Many will die because of political inaction this year. Some through flooding. Some through heatwaves. Some through tropical storms. Some through overloaded health systems. Some through climate changed related diseases. If that isn't a climate emergency, I don't know what is. #NetZero

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · last wk.

Three tropical systems churned across the Pacific Ocean early Tuesday, fueled by exceptionally warm ocean waters linked to an already record-breaking El Niño and a huge marine heat wave. Here’s what we know:

The mud-brained fucking imbeciles commenting on “the climate change myth” on @lbc.co.uk in the face of France and Spain literally being on fire is a special kind of fucking idiocy. They’ve truly swallowed the bilge pumped into them by Facebook conspiracies. Take their phones away.

Farage has said he thinks it’s “absolutely nuts” for CO2 to be considered a pollutant, while Badenoch says candidates aren’t welcome in the Conservative Party that support net zero. Leaders of the civilisational collapse cult.

They moved on from lindsey graham's death so quickly you'd think he died in a school shooting.

An absolutely humiliating night for Donald Trump.

I wonder whether John Healy will get called, "John From Accounts" or whether that name was exclusively reserved for Rachel Reeves because she is a woman.
