No need for the sarcasm. You made a factually incorrect statement to which i responded. I referred to hedgerows near me which do not correspond to your assumptions.

Not the case. I'll take photos.

Not to mention the wider loss of life that will be caused by the massive increases of CO2 emissions caused by this war.

My heart is broken just about every time I leave my own little pocket of wild. The tree and hedge carnage seems worse than it has ever been. On my road to Tralee, multiple, mature roadside trees have either been severed or ripped apart by a flail. It's like a war on trees. Does policy support this?

Putin ‘impressed’ by U.S. attacks on Iran, Trump says At a press conference on Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters he spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin about the U.S.-Israel Iran war, saying Putin was "impressed by what he saw."

Well the world really has become a strange place when the president of the United States boasts about how impressed the Russian president is by America's war on Iran.

Sea animals are under multiple threats. All fishing activities should have an environmental impact assessment. Fishing gear should be 100% biodegradable as it once was. It is unfathomable that nets that can continue to do vast amounts of damage can last hundreds of years in our seas.

Exactly what I was going to say.

America is starving Cuba

Greenhouse gases absorb heat radiation, causing more heat to accumulate in the oceans and lower atmosphere (the troposphere).

But the higher layers of the atmosphere cool down.

This will continue until a new Earth's Energy Imbalance is reached with the greenhouse gas forcing.

Spread the truth about the hero Alex Pretti. An intensive care nurse murdered under sanction of the US goverment by ICE thugs. He was trying to help a woman they had just pushed to the floor.

So much information in a 25 minute podcast! Well worth watching. Thank you to everyone involved in making it.

He must have splinters in his backside from the fence he's sitting on when asked about the Trump administration.

Question is how to mobilise a unified and robust democratic response. Key is ensuring AI is not working solely for the benefit of its billionaire owners. AI must have a host of checks and balances. Otherwise it increases its role in being part of the problem and has the potential to amplify harm.

Climate Solutions 101 presented by @ProjectDrawdown Presented in six video units and in-depth expert conversations, this free online course centers on game-changing climate action.

I'm pretty stunned that nearly *half a million people* have watched our Climate Solutions 101 course so far.

The response from Kristi Noem here is the very definition of subversive behaviour. She is subverting the systems meant to establish truth.

Don't give them oxygen by sharing their toxicity.

The lost 1934 novel that gave a chilling warning about the horrors of Nazi Germany Published years before WW2, Sally Carson's prescient novel captures the dawn of Nazi tyranny in a small German town – and remains relevant today.

It would benefit everyone to read the book documented in this article. Recognise the echoes?

Oh I know. I'm responding to the lie.

Video shows he fired in pure anger. There was absolutely no need for that response. They were no threat.

Resources. Resources. Resources. On a rapidly changing planet.

Today an illegal coup in Venezuela, but where next? Donald Trump talks peace but he is a man of war | Simon Tisdall The world will be anxious, and rightly so. For a man so bent on a peace prize, Trump appears to revel in conflict, writes Simon Tisdall

'He is building a legacy in blood.'

Well done for speaking out, something which there is a distinct absence of right now.

It's a resource grab and gives licence to other powerful countries to do the same. You'd wonder if that has been agreed behind closed doors.

What a crazy world we have landed in

Absolutely not

Synthetic chemicals in food system creating health burden of $2.2tn a year, report finds Scientists issue urgent warning about chemicals, found to cause cancer and infertility as well as harming environment

I wonder if there will be an outcry to this very real health threat coming from man made chemicals. These chemicals are causing cancer and other health issues including infertility. Your health is ignored as shareholders profit.

@theguardian.com It's time that you stopped giving oxygen to Donald Trump. There's no such thing as bad PR. The constant visibility you give him is exactly what he craves: attention. (Unless it's Epstein.) It normalises what by any standards is outrageous behaviour from a head of state.

Hard to believe that this comment is coming from a home office department under a Labour government. Labour would do better to align to their social practice remit rather than try to stem the unstoppable baying of the racist, blame-everyone-else, right- wing culture that is so prevalent now.
