A Global #Climate Solvency Plan:
Sir David King argues cutting methane by ~40% in 15 years could lower global temperatures by ~0.3°C, buying time for deeper structural change. We need an international programme & serious climate solvency plan.

I agree with you! It’s our responsibility to speak out against these atrocities. And while all these wars continue, the greatest threat to humanity is closing in: climate change. When its full impact arrives, no one will be able to escape it. The hypocrisy behind these conflicts is staggering!
The atrocities of the Nazis were largely kept from the world’s view in their early stages. In contrast, the actions of Israel & the US take place openly before the world’s eyes, documented & undeniable. Yet despite this visibility, the world still fails to rise against genocide!
The massacre of more than 160 innocent schoolgirls was not the act of protectors, but of a tyrannical, cruel, terror-driven regime. They pretend to be “guardians” of the world, but beneath the mask of authority lies cruelty, deception & brutality. They’re devils in disguise!
The environmental damage from these senseless conflicts is staggering, billions burned on destruction that could be solving real problems! Cities shattered, people suffering, all driven by a handful of reckless out of control lunatics who seem completely detached from reality!
Watch out for all the betting made on Polymarket just before the US stroke Iran! Trump’s “gang”, perhaps?
Pedro Sánchez, a real leader, shows moral courage by speaking out against the atrocities committed by the US & Israel in Gaza, Lebanon, Iran & across the region.
At a time when many leaders stay silent, Spain is choosing principles over pressure!
Why can’t others do the same?
Their primary objective is profit alone, not the protection of the Amazon and its communities. Their plan is to hire and train communities to contribute to the development of the Amazon “bioeconomy”!

This must be AI, right? It can’t be serious!
Keir Starmer’s decision to allow the US to use UK military bases has no public mandate! He is pushing the country toward involvement in a reckless conflict against the will of the people!
Maybe this is the perfect moment to move beyond oil & gas and shift toward cleaner energy solutions & invest in developing new ones!
Yes, asap!
Keir Starmer, your message is shameful. Your response is weak & cowardly. You’ve failed to condemn an unlawful attack on Iran, a violation of international law, dragging the world into wider conflict. If you cannot stand up for the rule of law, you should step aside & resign!
More war and more chaos, brought to us by two of the most dangerous men on the planet, Trump and Netanyahu, as if the world didn’t already have enough crises to face!
Trump says Iran cannot have nuclear weapons, then neither should the United States, nor Israel, nor any nation on Earth. The rule must be universal! Such hypocrisy!
Thank you Martin! We’ve been drawn into an irresistible proposition with irreversible consequences that hurt most of us! It’s happening fast and out of control!
Farming by algorithm.
As artificial intelligence and cloud platforms move into the fields, a new alliance between Big Tech and agribusiness is reshaping who controls food, and who bears the risks.

Victory! The Brazilian government has officially revoked Decree 12.600!
This is how real change happens! A powerful win for Indigenous & traditional communities whose livelihoods & futures were at stake under the proposed privatisation of Brazil’s major waterways!
The EU-Mercosur Agreement will intensify deforestation, territorial conflicts, violence against communities, and the systematic violation of collective rights.
As it stands, the Agreement reinforces a predatory economic model, increases pressure on indigenous and traditional territories, and seriously compromises the climate, social, and human rights commitments made by the countries involved.
The Articulation of the Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (APIB), the organisation that represents more than 300 Indigenous peoples from all regions of Brazil, reaffirms its opposition to the signing and ratification of the EU-Mercosur Trade Agreement.

Indigenous protesters in Brazil occupied a shipping terminal operated by US agricultural giant Cargill on Saturday, demanding a ban on dredging Amazon waterways.
uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/indigen...
The government announced a “pause.” Not a cancellation. Not a revocation. Just a pause.
We’ve seen this playbook before: suspend, silence outrage, & then resume quietly!
Indigenous communities have been protesting for weeks outside Cargill’s grain terminal in Santarém demanding the decree be revoked. 🧵
That means dredging 250km between the cities of Santarém & Itaituba, blasting rock, altering river flows, increasing mega-barge traffic to ship soy & accelerating deforestation, pollution & conflict. 🧵
