I don't care if you live in the #UK or are a @greenparty.org.uk member. Hear @zackpolanski.bsky.social, @carlbenfield.bsky.social +other experts. We hunger for proactivity+plain-spoken leadership by governments. Silence on the #climateemergency + #preparedness is due to #corruption + #complacency

Heat & drought records keep falling. Reform promote denial. The Tories want to ditch our targets. The new PM still hasn't said a word. Such a relief to hear a politician actually name it. Should be ordinary. End the #climate hushing! Thanks for your #ClimateLeadership @zackpolanski.bsky.social

When someone is described as "often controversial, never boring" in 2026 it just means: full nazi but also part of the establishment.

July marks the first consecutive twelve month period where wind generated more electricity than gas in the UK...in every single month. In the last decade, wind generation in the UK has more than doubled, pushing first coal and now gas out of the mix.

Excellent thread as ever by @james-bg.bsky.social The lack of ability to simultaneously discuss the two-sides (action vs inaction) of climate in mainstream reporting is abysmal

James Murray@james-bg.bsky.social · 4d ago

I suppose we should be grateful the Sunday Times is both-sidesing the idea we should try to cut carbon emissions, rather than dismissing it outright. But it’s still further evidence of how mainstream reporting on climate has got dramatically worse in recent years. www.thetimes.com/article/ed72...

I really need everyone to remember that the fossil fuel industry knew-knows exactly the climate hell we now inhabit, and are determined to make it FAR worse. That's because they have decided our lives are worth far less than their profits. We are not angry -or organised- enough.

You know what doesn’t get shut down when heatwaves and droughts dry up the rivers? Wind and solar.

In June 1966, scientist James Lovelock warned Shell in a confidential memo of “the almost certain fact that the climate is worsening and the probability that the combustion of fuel is responsible.” Shell would later become "a founding member of the denialist Global Climate Coalition." 😑

Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.

Factcheck: No, Europe is not having its ‘quietest’ year for wildfires - Carbon Brief

In recent days, prominent climate sceptics and rightwing commentators have shared charts on social media incorrectly implying that Europe is having its “quietest” year for wildfires in 2026.

Our criteria for success are disastrously skewed. In my view, a successful person is one who does more good than harm, on any scale. On this measure, most billionaires are massive failures, while humble folk in my neighbourhood who look after other people are highly successful.

“The problem with climate change reporting is that sometimes it feels like you’re intellectualizing something that doesn’t actually need to be intellectualized. This is pretty simple. It’s fossil fuel companies destroying our future for a quick buck. That’s all you need to say.” @emorwee.bsky.social
