Outside of quarantine this is still happening... and will be there waiting for us when this nightmare is over. When we return to normal, let’s do all we can to protect the beauty of this planet. xitter.gq/Oceandiversity2/status…

#Neonicotinoids damage baby bee brains: the final piece of evidence needed for a complete ban on #neonics. May be without the UK, the EU will find it easier to act? And what about other markets eg the USA where #corporatecapture of…lnkd.in/deG6EYD lnkd.in/dqgqtri

What?! On the heels of #cop25 @JustinTrudeau has approved new oil drilling?! Globally there is already enough under production & construction to take us past Paris goals. Chinese oil company gets go-ahead for exploration drilling in Flemish Pass Basin cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundl…

In Denmark we haven't had a majority party in my lifetime. What you guys call a "hung parliament", we just call a "parliament". It leads to such awful things as dialogue, negotiation, balance, and compromise. I kid you not. It really is THAT frightening.

Fantastic report on @BBCNews and Trump's racist outburst. I'd it all just divert attention from his mate Epstein being charged with sex trafficking underage girls. #TrumpEpstein youtu.be/WKckeUuKRQM
Last week i read that fracked gas had the same lifecycle emissions as coal, due to higher than previously thought fugitive methane emissions. This week I read this: Cuadrilla to restart fracking at site in Lancashire #ClimateEmergency theguardian.com/environment/…
Should @BBCNews @itvnews have a regular slot about #climatebreakdown events around the world, and the pace of solutions we're implementing? @ExtinctionR One climate crisis disaster happening every week, UN warns theguardian.com/environment/…

Tell the Truth. Be an Upstander,not a Bystander. That’s the advice from Extinction Rebellion. And that’s exactly what the much-loved Mark Rylance did when he stood down as an Associate of the Royal Shakespeare Company because of its continuing relationship with BP.

Why are we comparing obesity to smoking in our latest adverts? Because obesity is a cause of cancer too and we need the government to take action right now, to protect future generations. Learn more about the impact of ending junk food advertising to kids: po.st/CdHC54

Climate breakdown is repeatedly happening more rapidly, more dramatically than scientists' models had forecast. In response, nations' net-zero carbon-emission commitments must be set for dramatically sooner than 2050. theguardian.com/world/2019/j…

The #EquatorPrinciples banks picked a great week to tell the world that they "acknowledge to have a role to play with respect to the 2015 Paris Agreement". Utterly inadequate response to an existential planetary crisis. #EquatorBanksAct theguardian.com/world/2019/j…
