Netanyahu allowed Qatar to funnel money into Gaza that was used by Hamas to dig tunnels, buy rockets, and produce weapons.

Netanyahu is responsible for Hamas becoming a regional power.

Netanyahu ensured that Hamas has the capabilities to commit atrocities so he could deny Palestinian statehood.

A third of the food we produce is wasted. Producing that food means clearing land, applying pesticides, artificial fertiliser that uses energy to make. Decaying food releases methane as it does so. Reducing food waste is probably the most affordable way individuals can help fight climate change.

💥 World Food Day - UN rapporteur Michael Fakhri said in the European Parliament:
👉 "Hunger is always a political problem. We produce enough food to feed 1,5 times the current global population. Hunger is always a political and institutional failure."

The cross-over of climate change lowering water levels, + pollution. If you've already got phosphate, ammonia or other chemical pollution in the water, they become even more concentrated as water levels decrease. Oxygen low, ammonia high is a really desperate situation for fish.

OUT NOW: we revisit the pivotal moment when science, institutions and politics aligned to deliver the UK’s #NetZero target. At a time of political divergence, the evidence for #ClimateAction remains clear. Evidence-based #ClimatePolicy is more relevant than ever. @granthamicl.bsky.social

Right wing politicians and media deny the climate crisis and argue against the move to a net zero economy, they say this is just weather...but they will say anything to win votes. Bit like they did with Brexit.

It's Brexit 2.

are doing and do not care one jot what havoc it causes.
