I thought the The Guardian "got it" on climate change? Why it it telling me England could "enjoy" highs of around 27C? How about "suffer"? After all, the country is parched, rivers are running dry, and the heat is driving people to dangerous behaviour.

Global warming hasn't happened this fast in 65 million years: 1. Czech Republic worst drought in 500 years 2. Siberian heat waves +30-35°C 3. UK: driest May in 124 years 4. Arctic Ocean above freezing The Biggest Event in Human History still isn't front page news every day.

Only a small number of London's pavements are wide enough to meet recommended social distancing criteria. Pedestrians are treated as second class citizens as it is - something has to be done. Lewisham Council

Extinction Rebellion Lewisham RootinTootinTaxi Climate Action Lewisham LewishamWatch Lewisham Cyclists @lewgreenparty Thanks. The deep depth of anger from so many cabbies against people who cycle is sad. It is not natural to spend all day in blackcabjams to make a living. Govt should fund training for better more positive jobs.

A nice little victory thanks to the stoic work from the @biofuelwatch team. Burning biomass in power station is not sustainable by any stretch of the imagination! 🔥🔥🔥

The Shock Doctrine in the US begins, how long will it be before we see the same thing from Boris Johnson over here? The government are already loaning nine figure sums to airlines.

Greta Thunberg ⏬ Read this article today ⏬ ▶️ voiceofaction.org/collapse-of-ci… “When it comes to Arctic sea ice we could have already run out of time. We could also lose control of the #TippingPoints in much less time than it’s going to take us to get to net zero emissions.” #ClimateCrisis #ActNOW

In his latest newsletter, Richard Heinberg gives a critique of Planet Of The Humans and the practicalities of renewable energy. Definitely worth a read. richardheinberg.com/museletter-327…
