📣 First screening of People's Emergency Briefing in a national parliament!
The film was shown at Holyrood last night. Grateful to First Minister John Swinney for committing to helping ensure it is “shared and understood very widely within Scotland”.

“Hope comes from honesty.” Our screenings show this: 87% of survey respondents leave more motivated to act.
Prime Minister, will you join a screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing to see what trusting the public with the full picture can achieve?

We can't carry on as we are.
Politics as usual has taken Britain backwards, and more of the same won't get us where we need to be.
Today, I'll set out a different path for our country.
That means having an honest conversation about the things we've ignored for too long, from fixing social care and tackling youth unemployment to giving people more control over energy, water and housing.
Hope comes from honesty.
It comes from saying the things politicians usually avoid, being straight about the challenges we face, and having the courage to fix them.
That's exactly what I will do.

Sigh. The claim that Democrats should drop climate as an issue is wrong.
1) It is dumb to drop a platform that the majority support and that your opponent is absolutely terrible on.
2) We do need to get to net zero now in order to halt heating at a relatively safe level.

For 10 years, the world's been warned about overshooting 1.5°C
It's now happening
So, does that mean the world is doomed...?
Or can it be saved very quickly?

He's too modest to say, but Andrew Dessler has led and coordinated a full-court scientific response to that execrable, climate-denying "report" from the DOE.
It was a massive effort, accomplished in mere weeks.
And the response itself is of historic importance, because...

Our 400+ page comment on the DOE climate working group report is now out.
Our conclusion: The merchants of doubt are back, and they're coming for climate science.

New piece on Carbon Colonialism, net-zero nonsense, and how the UK Government's climate advisors (and many experts) shy away from speaking truth to power. We need a fundamental reboot of climate policy; - physics doesn't care about political sensibilities. theconversation.com/the-uks-…

Shell and other fossil-fuel companies have abandoned the Science Based Targets initiative—a six-year-long attempt to define a global, corporate “net zero” emissions strategy—after being told that such a standard would require them to stop developing new oil and gas fields.

For World Crocodile Day here is a piece of crocodile history you don’t hear much about; how settler violence forced the Palestinian crocodiles into extinction.
Colonialism will destroy everything in its path and cares nothing for life, even those of crocodiles.

Tonga wants to give whales rights which is amazing! If corporations get them, why can’t our whale relatives?
Whales are an important part of our oceans ecosystem and need protection.
Every country should be backing this initiative.

MAJOR BREAKING: A brave South Florida weatherman interrupted his weather forecast to expose Trump’s dangerous budget cuts - saying they’ve crippled his ability to accurately predict hurricanes.
