"God’s still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous" What happened to religion being a private thing? Expects us to ignore climate change because he thinks it's all the work of his imaginary friend

I'm a pom, I thought I was used to the cold. After 18 yrs here, either I've softened, or it is indeed, bloody cold. Probably both!

I'll be making that trip with that airline in a few weeks time. I learned to fly gliders age 16 and single engined aircraft before I was 20. I'm more nervous about our fractured climate and aircraft in turbulence now than at any point, ever. It's going to kill more ppl.

Driving your vehicle, into a group of black lives matter protesters, with an intent to kill and maim, then killing one of them with a gun, at point blank range, is self-defence in the USA now. The USA is fucked beyond comprehension.

Capitalism is not, as its defenders insist, a system designed to distribute wealth, but one designed to capture and concentrate it. The story capitalism tells about itself – that you become rich through hard work and enterprise – is the greatest propaganda coup in human history.

It isn't possible to "like" a post like this, but that doesn't mean you go un-noticed. Reach out, to someone you can talk to, face to face. Even the longest Winter has to give way to Spring, eventually.

labor in Australia just committed to more FF expansion. Basically a paint job on the LNP's "gas led recovery". Infuriating and disappointing in equal measure. Still logging old growth forests and land clearing too.

From day one, when fire ants were first discovered in Australia, they moved far faster than the politicians, who were warned of the consequences of "under-egging" their response. It's analogous to how politicians are reacting to climate change

Last year, CO2 increased by 3.36 parts-per-million (ppm). That’s a 10 per cent greater jump than the previous record, which was set just a few years ago. In sheer weight, last year’s surge added a record 26 billion tonnes of CO2 to the atmosphere — more than three tonnes per human.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

I can't stop laughing at this. Kaur is an anti-vaccine quack who launched a $12 million libel suit targeting journalists, doctors, and her critics on Twitter. A judge tossed that case and ordered her to pay $1.1 million in the defendants' legal costs. That's what Musk is paying.

Hardly surprising, is it? Every green leaf on the planet is already fully employed trying to drag down our existing emissions and failing. Yet we still approve projects that increase emissions on the promise that they'll be offset. There's no way new/adequate/natural carbon sinks will ever cover 'em

Truth is, that if the Right-wingers and fossil fuel shills can't lie, they'll have very little to support their views or policies. Conversely, for democracy to work, voters must have access to the facts, in order to decide how they'll vote. The fact that is even contested, is very worrying.
