I mean, it's a race littered with fossil fuel interest, genocide support and a questionable history....but yes.....if you ignore that (as I did to view the first 2 stages) then it's a nice supporting event to posture over

As someone in this picture I find it a little odd that @natureportfolio.nature.com chose this image to illustrate the point. We were very careful when choosing a slogan for our signs that it be scientificly defenceable. "Science says New Oil & Gas = Death" is a plain statement of fact 🧵

The weather is glorious, England have soared through to the World Cup round of 16 and one Sir Keir Starmer has just weeks left as Prime Minister. So where better to celebrate – or commiserate, if you ...

I mean..... there's a clear factual error a couple of sentences in FFS. Greens won four seats at the 2024 GE. Hannah was the fifth Green MP of this current parliament.

Quelle surprise: my comment on the Govt's latest climate commitment (www.gov.uk/government/n... is out of step, at least publicly, with many colleagues: www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-react... With expert whitewash on one side & charlatans on the other, an honest climate debate stands no chance.

This is a really grim decision alongside Cenk. People often talk about dangerous road we'd go down under a Reform government - this is another clear warning we're down there already. A Labour government doing everything possible to silence criticism of the Israeli Government

Absolutely wild! Solid example of why people voted overwhelmingly for him not to be leader. Also, Burnham has ruled out PR. Wake up and smell the coffee....Labour, Burnham led or otherwise, is neither a progressive party, no a viable force to stop the far right

Seems rather unlikely that Sustainable Aviation Fuels (e.g. biofuels) are the solution to reduce aviation emissions. Even if we switch ALL current US corn production to SAF we would not even be able to meet *present day* US aviation needs.

Deary me this is bad.....like really bad! Even in the US, tackling climate change has majority support. To deal with it, you can't ignore it, you can't 'take the politics out of it', you have to struggle constantly and develop the necessary politics. It's VERY hard. That is why we must carry on.

There are antisemites at the Tommy Robinson protests. There is footage of attendees doing N*zi salutes. As Harry Shukman’s book attests, several of the far right groups who support TR engage in antisemitism behind closed doors. I wonder when we’ll get to asking if they should be restricted/banned?
