The summer of 1976 was a freak. What we’re living through now is the new baseline, says The Bear. The more we cling to rose-tinted memories, the less prepared we are for what’s next.

As we seem to, yet again, be talking about the hot UK summer of 1976, a reminder that the UK is not the world. Yes, it was hot that summer over our small region, but the bigger picture tells a different story. And, we've had hotter UK summers since.

Oil prices spiked due to more aggression from a country currently committing genocide. Renewable energy prices were unaffected. Do you like entrusting your country's economy to the whims of genocidal maniacs? If not, you have options.

A poetic, powerful closing from @helenczerski.bsky.social: Earth, seen from far away - during the Apollo missions or soon again with Artemis - is not defined by a flag or a radio signal. There is one colour for our planet, and it's blue: our 'signature on the universe.' #Humanists2025

We can't ignore stats like these. In 2025 the UK has had a record numbers of wildfires and now warmest sea surface temperatures. We need to drastically reduce our carbon emissions if we're going to resist climate collapse. Choosing sustainable transport is an important step towards that.

As the UK and EU carve up fishing rights, I don't give a damn which party gets to trash our marine ecosystems by overexploiting fish populations, ripping up the seafloor and killing vast numbers of "non-target" animals. I just want this orgy of destruction to stop.

The Conservative plan to drop the UK’s net zero commitment is both ecologically and economically illiterate. Climate action is essential for our future prosperity—abandoning it will cost us dearly in jobs, energy security, and global leadership. We need serious progress, not reckless backtracking.
