If you look at images/clips over the last 20 years where the right wing have turned up to demonstrate, in any country across Europe or the United States it’s almost as if very much like this picture, the police are there to provide protection for them. Whilst those on the left are attacked 1/2

Guess which protest led to arrests and which did not - the far-right balaclava-clad blackshirts blocking roads (September 5th) or Just Stop Oil sat in the road while leaving space free for emergency vehicles (September 2nd)?

Hi @zackpolanski.bsky.social if the Jackdaw + Rosebank decisions were in your hands, would you make sure they did not go ahead? Voters in the upcoming by-election with even a passing interest in limiting climate breakdown might like to know.

Something to remember as the UK's new climate-meh prime minister decides whether to engage in the climate vandalism of new oil and gas.

Pragmatic (adj.) 1. Of or relating to decision-making in the short-term interests of fossil fuel producers. 2. Neglect or ignorance of the risks of climate breakdown and need for rapid emissions reduction. 3. Naivety in regard to the promises or assumptions of unproven carbon capture technologies.

I don't want to have to engage in protest. I'd rather just get on with my research, and I found it quite emotional But while my government is considering pouring more fuel on the fires, despite everything we know and everything we're experiencing, what else am I supposed to do?

1/ Doomism means saying it's too late and nothing can be done. It doesn't mean saying things are bad. One recent high profile paper in @pnas.org treats conflates this. Whilst another paper in the British Journal of Psychology treats naming who funded climate delay as conspiracism. A thread 🧵

Remembering a Blackadder episode where, in the trenches about to go over the top, he reflects that "the real reason for the whole thing was that it was too much effort not to have a war". Many ways to look and climate and nature collapse, but to me this sorry explanation seems as good as any.

Post below from a month ago, since when a quarter of million people evacuated in France and Spain from wildfires, and it's still ~30C in London with little sign of rain. Yet signs are that Andy 'isn't he a great guy?!' Burnham is to green-light new oil and gas. Feel my sanity is hanging by a thread.

The London Ambulance Service responded to the highest number of life-threatening emergencies in its history on Wednesday.

Temperatures soared to 36.1C in parts of the UK on Wednesday, and that record for June has been broken again today.

Ambulance crews responded to 642 calls relating to category 1 incidents - those that include the most serious, life-threatening injuries and illnesses such as cardiac arrests and patients who are not breathing.

Chief Executive Jason Killens KAM said this was "driven by the extreme heat across London".

So fucking angry right now that amid a record-breaking heatwave, the mood music coming from business and sections of UK politics is to exploit the last reserves of North Sea oil & gas. It's anti-science, damages global climate action and will only lead to yet more murderous, climate-wrecking CO2.
