"Very idea that humans might become so voracious as to empty the seas of fish seemed absurd only a few short years ago. Today scientific evidence points to a brutal reality -.
In barely a generation, humans have exhausted most prolific creatures on the planet"

Dr Pete Knapp left air quality research to make this film. He is a member of Scientists for Extinction Rebellion, and made this crowdfunded, non-profit film with two main aims:
•⁠ ⁠telling the stories of people on the frontlines of wildfires
•⁠ ⁠stopping fascism

It shows how community, direct action, protest, rewilding, and closer connections with nature are key tools to suppress these forces and to build a more resilient future.

The new documentary Fires and Fascism shows the causes of wildfires in southern Europe extend beyond climate change, but also link to big business, organised crime, and the far right.

Signs of climate change are increasing. How will communities find resilience facing heat waves, fires, storms and droughts.

We’ll be announcing details soon about our people’s assembly on building community resilience in London.

The UK's hottest spring and summer yet. The highest area of UK land burnt by wildfires since records began. Drought, flooding, extreme heat and cold.

Climate breakdown is already here. Badenoch's proposal to scrap the CCA isn't just ill-advised; it would be catastrophic.

Who’d have thought DAC would be an expensive, ineffective solution?
janrosenow.bsky.social
Pollutting now and cleaning up later is not a viable strategy: Direct Air Capture (DAC) is hitting a hard reality check.

Costs are falling much slower than anticipated, casting doubts on the nascent technique’s role in tackling climate change.

When governments start threatening the press and silencing critics, freedom and democracy are in danger.

History shows where that road leads.

How many children in Islington can cycle safely to school?
irishdocsenv.bsky.social
Today, 7 out of 10 Copenhagen school children cycle to school.
In Dublin? Just 6%.

We’ve stolen children’s freedom to move and breathe clean air.

Cycling is daily exercise, mental wellbeing, and climate action on two wheels.

Talking about climate change is one of the most powerful things you can do.

You don’t need to be an expert, just share your experience. What you care about, what you’ve tried, what gives you hope.

Conversations spark action.

How to talk to your friends about climate action
Talking about climate change is one of the easiest and most effective climate solutions. So why are so few of us having climate conversations?
