Zach Polanski is right. If people are struggling to live – as so many are – they won't have the headspace to care about climate or nature breakdown. If people think the fight for a liveable planet is prepared to sacrifice their most basic needs, they won't back it. And why would they?
NumeniusEven @zackpolanski.bsky.social Polanski of the Greens is still leading with lower bills, rent controls, etc - the same messaging we've been seeing every day for quite some time now. I want to know what our best hope plans to do about the climate and nature crisis. I want to see radical policies.
En 1990, il y a 36 ans, mes collègues du GIEC ont publié : « Le changement climatique pourrait entraîner une augmentation de la fréquence des phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes ... L'assèchement de certaines régions pourrait entraîner une augmentation de la fréquence des incendies. … »
Findings from the @climateintegrity.org show that gas companies have known their impact for decades. Natural gas being touted as the 'climate solution' is a large part of the industry's success. See the full report below. climateintegrity.org/projects/nat...
J'ai regardé le JT de 20 heures de France 2 d'hier (samedi 25 juillet). 31 min. sur les feux de forêt, là où « la nature a pris le dessus », mais AUCUNE mention du changement climatique et de son influence sur le risque de feux de forêt.
j'ai automatisé cette détection dans les JTs ici si tu veux voir les tendances, et sinon le travail de @quotaclimat.org 💕 observatoire.climatmedias.org
J'ai regardé le JT de 20 heures de TF1 de samedi soir. 28 minutes de sujets sur « le feu du siècle » : moyens engagés, fumées toxiques, solidarité, météo… … mais pas une seule mention du changement climatique, qui rend les feux de forêt plus probables et plus sévères. Désespérant. #climat

A report found $2.3 billion in development bank funding supported factory farming in 2023. Factory farming contributes to methane emissions, deforestation and biodiversity loss, yet projects are being funded by banks like the World Bank’s IFC. by Frida Garza: grist.org/article/worl...
This is especially dumbfounding to me because I was in the Gironde last month, and every one of the half dozen winemakers I spoke to brought up climate change, unbidden. It's foremost on everyone's mind!
Dr. Genevieve Guenther (she/they)An entire article about the ways #ClimateChange is decimating the Bourdeux wine region of France — that never mentions the words “climate change.” This is journalistic malpractice. Not even high-school papers leave out such necessary context. #EndClimateSilence www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/w...
Here's Nick Bridge – the UK's former special representative on climate change under last Tory govt – on Channel 4 News citing @carbonbrief.org analysis about the extreme and relentless anti-climate action campaigning by some UK newspapers "Some of the media is shocking on this..."
Lots of action on the North Tyneside coast again today, trying to collect as many of the billion spilled nurdles as possible, in the absence of an organised, council/corporate-led effort. This is what the Fish Quay, right at the mouth of the Tyne looked like this morning (not my pics).
"Governments develop worst case scenarios to inform planning. In some instances, the heatwaves and wildfires are going beyond these This should be a moment of profound alarm and reflection for governments" Some thoughts on @ajenglish.bsky.social about the Euro-fires www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbSx...
