Summer heatwaves make headlines on land, but an even larger heatwave is unfolding out of sight. Roughly 90% of the excess heat from human-caused carbon emissions has been absorbed by the ocean, with dreadful consequences for marine life. Read our blog➡️ bit.ly/3UFvosA

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivalent of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

During a recent @cbmwc.bsky.social research survey in Cardigan Bay, supported by Dolphin Survey Boat Trips, we had some fantastic sightings of bottlenose dolphins & we spotted this awesome minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) 🐋. #MinkeWhale #CardiganBay #Cetaceans #Wales #CBMWC #MarineMammals
A minke whale just visible at the surface of the water. The minke whales blowhole is just visible, it’s head and tip of its dorsal fin visible behind a wave.

Everything we need to do to stop climate breakdown, we also need to do for national security. Energy saving, more renewables, more electricity storage and interconnectors, electrification of transport, heating, cooking and industrial processes, plant-based diets. We win on all fronts.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Trump has withdrawn the US from global climate treaties. Surprise, surprise his lapdogs in Reform want the UK to follow suit. But the facts won't change: the world is getting hotter, and clean energy was 90% of new power in 2025. Reform follow Trump; we'll follow the science.
