Charlie Chaplin in 1940 - as relevant today as then
We all want to help each other - we want to live by each others happiness, not by each others misery, we don"t want to hate and despite one another -
but we have lost our way
Greed has poisoned men"s souls
our cleverness made us hard and unkind

Society feels like a huge laboratory experiment owned by macho scientists: everyone wants to take credit, no one has a fucking clue, and an explosion is about to level the place down

As a nemopholist 🌳, mycophile 🍄‍🟫 and general lover of nature, I haven't really posted much of my other passion... ornithology

Here's a beautiful (Northern) Lapwing. I love the iridescent green. 💚

When Rachel analysed methane emissions data, the area around Drax had the UK's second highest levels of this potent greenhouse gas. Is using taxpayer money to subsidise chopping down forests to burn wood to power a data centre, the best way to address climate change?

Oh look, there were 420 water-related conflicts across the world in 2024, far surpassing the 355 in 2023, according to the latest update of the Pacific Institute’s Water Conflict Chronology, a global database of water-related violence.

If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

I really wish we'd stop calling them climate "skeptics" or "vaccine skeptics", if you jump off a cliff we don't call you a "gravity skeptic"

I have very strong doubts about the 'Current Policy Scenario' (CPS) by the @iea.org.

What policies guarantee coal use to start a rapid decline within a decade?

Weak tea pledges don't count.

Unregulated fossil fuel supply has always found demand.

This is the world’s wheat belt, which feeds billions. Above 30C wheat yield drops by as much as 44%. Wars, lack of water and soil degradation bring us to the end game even faster. But hey, we have data centres and AI slop

This graphic predicts future temperatures, based on continued accelerated warming:

1.50°C by 2026
2.00°C by 2036
2.50°C by 2045
2.85°C by 2050

Of course, a lot of non-linearities are possible before 2050. Like a net-zero, carbon-free, sustainable vegan utopia. Or the other ...

'Ten years ago the world’s leaders placed a historic bet. The 2015 Paris agreement aimed to put humanity on a path to avert dangerous climate change. A decade on, with the latest climate conference ending in Belém, Brazil, without decisive action, we can definitively say humanity has lost this bet.'
Your 'moment of doom' for Nov. 22, 2025 ~ And I am telling you.

"This translates to existential risks for billions of people. Not far in the future, but within the next few years for extreme events, and within decades for tipping points."

The role of politicians is to show racists that there’s no place for their racism in society and that racism is a severely detrimental position for anyone to take. Once politicians start pandering to racists, they have completely and irreversibly lost the way regardless of the rest of their agenda.
