“the global pace of progress on climate change is currently below the bottom end of Shell’s forecasts from 2016” according to Shell’s former CEO. So #BigOil never imagined we would be so dumb as to ignore the emergency like this www.ft.com/content/c6d7...

Did you know you pay more fuel tax on a single car journey than a billionaire does on a private jet flight? Right now the gov is subsidising tax breaks, when they could be using that tax to generate billions for public services. Help us change this: bit.ly/43NAeFN

It was 40 years ago tonight… that Michael #Heseltine sent 1,000s of soldiers to destroy a camp of a few 10s of #quakers, #CND and #peace campaigners at #Molesworth cruise missile base. The next day he paraded in his 'combat' jacket image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/G...

This is very small potatoes, but I've been making micro-loans via kiva.org for 20 years or so - it provides a way to support the aspirations of people in difficult circumstances, such as this contribution to a young person's higher education www.kiva.org/invitedby/da...
kiva.org
Can you help David support Fatmah?
Kiva is a loan, not a donation. With Kiva you can lend as little as $25 and make a big change in someone's life.

I hadn't though about STEM in this way before. (from How the Railways Will Fix the Future by @garethdennis.bsky.social )
"Indeed, STEM has long been used as tool to commodify education, channel workers into economically desirable, non-unionised jobs and reduce funding for humanities subjects."
