Nigeria, Sudan, Niger and Chad are projected to be hit hardest, yet together produce well under 1% of global fossil CO₂ emissions. How long are we going to accept that people who did least to cause it are being handed the bill?

After spending the past five days in Shanghai, I think we have to amend “cities aren’t loud; cars are loud” to “cities aren’t loud; internal combustion engine cars are loud.” Astonishing how much quieter the streets are here, where the majority of vehicles are electric.

"If you were to completely cancel and refund all of the money spent on bike lanes, even in the last 10 years in the city of Calgary, you wouldn't even barely be able to afford just one single interchange that's built in the suburbs," -Mayor Farkas @jeromyyyc.bsky.social #yycbike #Calgary

There was a time when the Tories, however hypocritically, claimed to want to protect our natural heritage. Now they're just a party of vandals, ripping down the few protections the living world has for the sake of their rich chums. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

UK airlines to be banned from charging parents to sit with children. Some people charged up to £104 extra. Neoliberals routinely moan about regulation but are silent on customer rip-off schemes. If businesses were ethical we wouldn't need regulation.

Change doesn’t happen because those in power suddenly decide to be bolder - it happens when. Greens push them to be better. And on climate, that couldn’t be more urgent. Vote Green to keep fossil fuels in the ground, where they belong
