This is a totally surreal moment in the Epstein scandal. They win the top award for exposing a pedophile, then have to shake hands with said pedophile.
Dan Diamond@ddiamond.bsky.social · 2w agoRemarkable camera angle of President Trump as he listens to Wall Street Journal reporters receiving an award for their investigation into Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — which they pursued despite Trump’s threats and lawsuit.
23 July 1910 | A Norwegian Jewish woman, Elly Salomon, was born in Kristiania. She was a secretary in the administration of the Norwegian Folk Museum. She arrived at #Auschwitz on 1 December 1942. After selection she was murdered in a gas chamber.
Only about one-quarter of the 2,500 online articles about last month’s heatwave mention the words “climate” or “global warming.” Less than 5% of stories included information about the UK’s climate goals. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Absolutely vile. The continued use of our tax dollars to terrorize Palestinians and US citizens is inhumane and unacceptable. Grateful for Ro’s courage to show the world what is happening on the ground and for exposing the continued atrocities happening in the West Bank.

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.
12 June 1929 | A German Jewish girl, Anne Frank, was born in Frankfurt. In 1942, on her 13th birthday, she received an empty diary. She perished in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945. 'Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character & goodness.' (A.Frank)

The climate emergency is manifesting and we have very few politicians and even fewer journalists championing any kind of action. We are heading for an eco collapse and we’re pretending like all is fine. It’s why I decided not to have children 30 years ago. I suspected it would play out like this.
I was in a part of Chad where climate crisis means no rain, no crops. People pray- & starve. This baby was fed a life saving peanut based liquid. But that is no longer available since gutting USAid. Countless thousands of the poorest people on Earth have died. Help UNICEF. & Save the Children
Så här går Israels etniska rensning av södra Libanon till. Ett angrepp har träffat en far och hans dotter som skadats. Ambulans tillkallas. Israeliska trupper väntar tills ambulansen är framme och bombar den för att maximera död, förstörelse och skräck – krigsbrott och terrorism.

Israel is starting the construction of a new road in the West Bank to link occupied settlements with Jerusalem. Palestinians will reportedly not be allowed to use that road. This is apartheid.
This is a really important point that is very poorly understood by the public at large: the warming & other climate impacts we experience today are an expression of atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases 15 years ago. There is a lock-in & time-lag that will inevitably lead to profound regret
Climate News@climatenews.bsky.social · 3mo agoSo think of 2026 as the climate we get from the atmosphere we had roughly in 2015. And since then we’ve added A LOT OF BLANKETS. So 2026’s blankets will give us 2037’s weather. We are in for a hell of a ride.

Europe is the world’s fastest-warming continent. We’ve seen record heatwaves from the Mediterranean to the Arctic, while glaciers have been shrinking and snow cover melting. The evidence is unequivocal: climate change is not a ‘future’ threat. It is our present reality. ⬇️
...og dette tar kaka: - Kartleggere skriver at de ikke har fått betalt for oppdrag fordi de fant viktige naturverdier, eller at oppdragsgiveren ber dem endre formuleringer eller slette ord. Dette siste har vi i Naturvernforbundet sett ved selvsyn. Både utbyggere og kommuner har endret rapporter.
I need y’all to explain this to everyone you know. It has never been more important. The world is too fragile right now for us to be this naive.
Patricia Aas 🐢🏳️🌈@patigallardo.bsky.social · 3mo ago8/ Data privacy is antifascist. Not by accident. By design. Data privacy legislation all over Europe was built around the information the Nazis used to target people. Look over the lists of information deemed «sensitive», then look at the groups of people explicitly targeted by the Nazis.

Viktig rapport, og helt enig med DNT om at norsk natur trenger PLANVASK og innføring av AREALNØYTRALITET som prinsipp, som hovedgrep for å stanse den ødeleggende bit-før-bit-nedbygginga. Vi trenger en helt ny respekt for naturen. www.nrk.no/vestland/ala...
