#ClimateDiary Yep, this is where we are at.

#ClimateDiary where i really want to share this graph is in family, friend, neighbourhood, etc WhatsApp groups. Which is what I used to do, 2019-2023. I know, in theory i could just post. But in practice it really does become impossible to keep on doing it for 5 years when the messaging from everyone is clear: we don’t want to hear; you’ve told us before. Deathly silence, every time.

@abm0 Thank you, was just discussing this with @monad_cat

Above see a new Nature article on this, Michal. Thank you for sharing this, @abm0

@enoch_exe_inc yes, it’s the combination of graphs, your experiences, and of course daily horrific climate news from many different parts of the world (85 dead on India’s heatwave, birds falling dead from sky, etc etc). It couldn’t be any clearer; all the evidence is there. #ClimateDiary

@TomSwirly @enoch_exe_inc

Hmmm. I fully see your point,and scientific methods speaking you are right, of course. Nevertheless, in terms of accepting that this really is happening, right now, at a personal level: it helps to bring it home if graphs, news, and your own experiences all correlate.

@Julianoe @joachim i really am not and expert; it could be that but it could also be the sulfur/ aerosol ban in shipping. See this

@scottytrees all of this. Yes. I know. I do it too, to be honest.

Peak Guardian.

At first I thought this might be satire, but as far as I can tell it’s not, and anyway, it’s not 1st April. A piece by Hollywood royalty offspring talking about how comfortable she is wrh her advantages.

I mean, I read and post Guardian all the time but I can’t stand this side of it.

2/2 Liberal, “nice” papers play a key role in preserving the status quo. It’s all become super evident with the NYT recently but the Guardian also functions in this way. It significantly contributed to the vilification of Corbyn, and so much more. It does all this more subtly than Daily Telegraph or Daily Mail, but it’s no less effective for that reason.

@jblue what a great quote! Thank you!

@Lylamehta@mas.to avatar

Excellent news. Well done Mexico for electing your first woman Jewish president who’s also left-wing & a climate scientist. And probably a compliment that US mainstream media & politicians don’t like her. #Mexico Mexico elects Claudia Sheinbaum as first woman president https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp4475gwny1o

“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.

#ClimateDiary ‘An intergenerational crime against humanity’: what will it take for political leaders to start taking climate change seriously?

“Forget the critical decade, what happens every single month during the next handful of years is crucial in determining how quickly we drain the remaining carbon budget needed to achieve the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement.”

my heart goes out to everyone in Delhi, especially the workers and street vendors, children and elderly, the many without AC. Water scarcity and rationing; overflowing morgues in Rajasthan.

So wow - I turned 60 today. I really don't know how that happened. Or maybe I do.

I must say, I've enjoyed every decade of my life just as it is, for what it is.

#GE2024 What have Labour done in their first campaign week? Deselected left-wing (not Israel supporting) candidates!! Diane Abbott (not sure but looks like it), now Doctor Faiza Shaheen, in Chingford, and more. This is appalling. Really angry. #UKPolitics

EDIT: it’s become a bit of a 🧵 because i am so angry. But honestly: everyone should be very angry about this, on Faiza’s behalf and for us all.

@junesim63 just awful, what she has had to put up with over the years

#GE2024 Apparenly Faiza Shaheen was suspended from the Labour party for liking a tweet with a Jon Stewart sketch. This is appalliing!!! #UKPolitics
