Today we visited the Teledyne Arms Factory in Shipley. They provide components & weapons to Israel to continue the Genocide. We decided to start our pots and pans protest early and were later joined by other men, women and children. We don't want a genocidal supporting arms factory in our back yard

Absolutely insane footage of rock avalanches currently sweeping across the entire south face of the Matterhorn, as filmed from Cervinia! 🔥😱 📽️ Via @meteovalledosta
BP's quarterly profits more than doubled to £4.2 billion in the three months to the end of June. These are the profits of war and climate chaos. It's time to make the biggest polluters pay.
Demonstrates that it’s not about who is in office, but private finance initiative, harsh sentences, criminalising minor offences (like protest), which are policies shared by both ‘major’ parties.
Mike D London@mikedlondon.bsky.social · 2d agoNot forgetting that Sunak had to release 10,000 prisoners early as a result of 14 years of Tory failure to sort out prison capacity. That's the Sunak Govt that Badenough and Philp were both Ministers in.
MIDDLE EAST HEAT WAVE Brutal conditions with over 50C daytime and over 35C nightime continues. Widespread records allover the area. Some of the most extreme MINIMUMS tonight in the EMIRATES: 38.5 Swiehan 36.8 Al Ain Next days,we might see some MINIMUMS of 40C. Absolutely brutal

The current water level of the Rhine in Cologne is 67 centimeters.
There is that word ‘pragmatic’ again. Surely no one could get away with writing such a book in 2026? But then again someone can open a new oil field and claim it's ‘pragmatic’. PS only Jan24, scary how quick this ending is. www.theguardian.com/books/2024/j...
Not the End of the World by Hannah Ritchie review – an optimist’s guide to the climate crisis
This book is full of pragmatic, hopeful solutions to environmental challenges. But is there something missing?

I listened to the blister podcast today, first I heard of this. If we wanted a completely independent check of how our media skews (and deliberately does so) public opinion, see Nirmal Purja. Once you go looking, it’s a commonly shared concern. Where you don’t find it is very telling.
Carceral Abolition@carceralabolition.bsky.social · 4d agoFor Female Climbers, Dangers Go Beyond Avalanches and Storms Women are increasingly reporting sexual harassment and abuse in the sport, including accusations against the renowned climber Nirmal Purja. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/31/s...
"We have been horrifically complicit in this genocide. We have continued to sell arms to Israel.. we are in many ways colluding, we have colluded, and this government has had a shocking and shameful record in relation to Gaza. Juliet Stevenson on @novaramedia.com 🎯
South Korea have warned people to “stop outdoor activities” as a record breaking heatwave continues to grip the Peninsula. Temperatures have exceeded 40°C for 5 days straight with a new all time record of 42.5°C recorded yesterday. Yet another area seeing record heat.
I think this would be a really good solution in areas where this is suitable. I’ve signed. Will you?😊 c.org/WJmgWjdVJr

New petition: "Increase the personal tax allowance threshold to £20,000" Deadline 14 November 2026, created by Wade Reid #NewPetition
New petition: Increase the personal tax allowance threshold to £20,000
The personal allowance has been frozen while living costs have risen, meaning workers pay more tax in real terms. Increasing it to £20,000 would put more money into millions of workers’ pockets, helping with rising bills and supporting low and middle earners.

People be like “yeah we can adapt to 40º, aircon, firebreaks, new crops, evs, school holidays” but we are only a few years from 50º unless we stop.
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.
The UK gov is almost able to make protest untenable now. You can only protest if you are invisible. UK has made political prisoners of Grannies and church folk holding signs. The UK’s slide to illiberalism is better dressed than the US version, but it’s the same trajectory.
George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social · 6d agoIn April, the Starmer government passed an Act of Parliament enabling the police to shut down any protest they deem to have a “cumulative” impact on the community. The only protests that have ever succeeded are those with a cumulative impact. Effective protest is now illegal.
Jeremy Corbyn MP’s message to PM Andy Burnham: ‘It’s a genocide in Gaza 🇵🇸’ ‘Israeli 🇮🇱 ‘settlers’ are armed occupiers of the West Bank 🇵🇸’ ‘Stop treating 🇮🇱 with respect’ ‘Stop selling arms to 🇮🇱’ ‘Sanction 🇮🇱’ ‘Now’

National Trust@nationaltrust.org.uk · 6d agoThis week, a wildfire has torn through Dunwich Heath in Suffolk, leaving the entire nature reserve devastated. An area of around 210 football pitches has been affected with rare habitats and wildlife lost in a matter of hours.
Israel just detonated 700 tons of explosives beneath Beaufort Castle in South Lebanon, in the middle of the night - a 900-year-old Crusader castle that UNESCO just listed as World Heritage site www.reddit.com/r/israelexpo...
I'm screaming inside reading this. The implications are beyond comprehension.
Nahel Belgherze@wxnb.bsky.social · 6d agoBordeaux, 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.
