The film Now or Never follows climate activists who have a stark warning for those in power: humans will not survive if nothing is done about climate change. While many see their methods as unconventional and often inconvenient, they are now a necessary means to bring the reality of the climate crisis to the attention of the world. What will happen if we continue to ignore our dying Earth?

I am beginning to think - the drenched suit, the Titanic site and now compulsory military/social service: is it all totally disastrous on purpose? Some kind of revenche Tory party destruction? I mean, it’s April Fool’s Joke level stuff.

Conservatives want to bring back mandatory national service https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cpddxy9r4mdo

OK so now we are all clear that Artificial Intelligence is as desirable as some cake crumbs the dog left on the floor after a wedding cake was dropped.

Can we all be really big & grown up by also admitting that atrocity crimes are evil, as are those who scream support against the ICJ ruling for their continuance in Palestine & Ukraine?

This all in the face of this reality:

“The lack of stringent emission reductions means that the required emission cuts from now to 2030 have increased significantly. To reach emission levels consistent with a below 2°C pathway in 2030, the cuts required/yr are now 5.3% from 2024, reaching 8.7%/yr on average for the 1.5°C pathway. To compare, the fall in total global GHG emissions from 2019 to 2020 due to the COVID pandemic was 4.7%”

The End of all humans alive has several pathways to it, but which gets us there the fastest seems unclear!

Would a sat-nav that runs on regen AI created by Muskrat or Microsoft be able to guide?

Collapse is certainly is in our quite near future somewhere, it is only a matter of how & when?
Or will it happen all at once?

#ClimateDiary How to note Sunak’s election announcement here? Getting drenched in rain was symbolic & symptomatic; tragically a child died in a mudslide in Yorkshire the same day.

Will this election be decisive from a climate policy point of view? Labour will be better, but how much exactly who knows, given scrapped pledges. Of course i am hopeful for Green party gains. But actual positive excitement and energy, again rallying everyone to make this a #ClimateElection etc? sadly, no. #GE2024

Nattering can be useful but let’s face it, many matters by chattering people are just full of low grade crap.

Making noises for social positioning, posturing!

So when a box full of no life experience tries to do it without ever having a breath, meal or shit to its experience then all it can be doing is deceiving a mushy human mind that it has something of value to be heard or seen!

Maybe less natter-chatter is better?

Dystopia is right here. I mean, the floods in Brazil are HORRIFIC but hardly anyone notices them because there is also a genocide going on but also Eurovision (which people tell me I am a “bore” for boycotting). Neom “eco-city” in the desert given green light to kill people in its way; climate scientists and UN SHOUTING that we are racing towards 2.5°C catastrophe but noone listening. All in a day (9th May 2024).

As I commented after the meeting.

Ilan Pappe, an Israeli historian, warned as early as in the 1990s that the Israeli educational system was producing a different kind of Zionists. Israeli children are socialized into hating and dehumanizing their Arab & Palestinians neighbors. It explains why the majority of Israelis are not even troubled by the perpetual brutality against Palestinians. @palestine #gaza

I used to be unable to understand how otherwise nice English kids from middle class clan could accept the rituals and take part in blood sports.
In no different a way the culture is identical!
They justify killing by vilifying the victim, full extermination might not be their goal as that would remove the scapegoat they use to dump their vileness upon.

Nazianyahu must be thinking the same.

Were stuck with psychopathy dropped on us from institutional levels.

    We could add that for such a security paranoid state , Israel had no border guards anywhere near the border & dubious camera /detection systems in October!

    Almost as if it was inviting in its own 9/11 so it could justify anything it did to Palestinians as the world watched.

    This is not a limited operation but a two-division, multi-domain combined-arms offensive on Rafah.
    There will be artillery, air and naval support. This is a multi-domain operation that will probably take months.

    From reading some responses here I see that most are disgusted that when it comes to atrocity crimes like Genocide, and the difference between the big parties on it is as useless as if the word begins with a capitol G or not!

    Same in the UK & other EU nations I expect!

    If we can’t/won’t stop this human war monster then how can we hope to stop a human caused climate monster?

    Basically, our leaders only lead by deception, we should want better than that, but don’t!

    “We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.”

    It is unbearable to think what the remaining hostages and their families have been going through all this time. Netanyahu does not care about the hostages. Just as he does not care about people in #Gaza.

    Some commentators here choose to ignore the clear difference between an imprisoned, infuriated, improvised terrorist gang
    and a state sized, high tech, law evading, mass killing, war criminal terrorist gang!

    Both kill, both lie, but look at the history that is behind them, the violent colonisations, fake demonisations, western collusions.

    The look in your mirror if you take a side and ask yourself if you would be seen beside it.

    Hey 'JustaBoiledFrog' have you ever wondered how it all got so hot? or isn't it so at the bottom of a murky pond?

    Maybe you can instead dream up an aircon for the entire planet, like reducing GHG's massively?

    And don't count on 'adaptability' of current humans, I've been one all my life & have seen from posts like yours how ignorant & stubborn some are.
