www.theguardian.com/environment/... Any comments on the unfathomable complicity of the Guardian. They give him centre stage at every turn.

An extremely important article, written by a freelancer, that explains why there is such a huge disconnect between climate rhetoric and action. Because policy makers listen to neo-classical economists but never tell you. theintercept.com/2023/10/29/w... (At times a little polemical.)

The problem with those calculations is that they assume that we will reach net zero some time this century. So far, I can only call that science fiction.

Some are saying bsky is an echo chamber. It probably is, but I have a mission here: climate activism needs to move on from looking at denial and not enough action, on to the big cheat of the corporate, government and scientific elite capture. The big trap where "net zero" is only a part.

I can't stress this enough - colonialism and the climate crisis are one and the same. We should be much more concerned about the solutions now being sold than about "not enough is being done". braveneweurope.com/wolfgang-kno...
