Mother & grandma. Thought she was leaving education to write her book, spend time with her granddaughter, drink coffee with friends & walk the lakes. But then faced up to climate breakdown. Now doing all she can & hoping you are too.

When will mainstream media - mainly talking to YOU, BBC Today - stop letting politicians bang on endlessly about growth!!!!??? Increasingly irrelevant & stupid as we storm past 1.5 degrees. What do you think got us into all this shit?

Petition: Ban fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship Advertisements encourage the use of products and sponsorship promotes a positive reputation & creates a social licence of trust & acceptability. In 2003 a ban on all tobacco advertising was introduced...

And this one on fossil advertising too please, also with days left to run.

(The fact a public information campaign is needed is further demonstrated looking at a petition that has reached 100k, which confuses carbon dioxide removal with aerosol injection.)

Petition: Run a public information campaign on the climate crisis Communicate clearly: 1) the science behind the climate crisis - how & why for the first time in the last year we've averaged 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels 2) the implications of going beyond...

@fionafromkendal.bsky.social smashing it out the park on any answers.
Why indeed does the opinion of Farage and Blair hold more weight than actual climate experts?

No time to be a bystander. If you are one of the 60% of people who regular say in polls you want more action on climate breakdown please join us in Parliament Square, London. What could be more important right now? What's going to get you that action?

If you are old enough to remember the nuclear fallout film 'Threads', don't we need a climate breakdown version to stop people writing rubbish articles like this?

1.7 this January... and they still want to open Rosebank. Go to #juststopoil. Let's stop our leaders making it worse while the rich get richer.

'Global warming is concerning' says Professor of Understatement, Liz Bentley, chief exec of Royal Meteorological Society on BBC Today programme today. She knows 1.7 is a death sentence. Where does the BBC find them? Sign up with #juststopoil for Parliament Square this April. #tellthetruth.

The devastating scenes from California are a reminder of what should be dominating headlines.

2025 is a red letter year for the climate and this Govt must show us it’s willing to take bold action.

Half-baked measures simply aren’t enough.

We need a free press It’s vital for democracy that we receive verifiable information that is not manipulated or controlled

β€œJust three companies, News Corp (Murdoch family), Daily Mail & General Trust (DMGT, Viscount Rothermere) and Reach plc, control over 80% of daily newspaper circulation…”

We need a free press - ie free from the billionaires.

This is amazing: it’s incredibly windy in the UK right now, so only about 10% of the National Grid is currently being powered by fossil fuels.

Tory bid to force national grooming gangs inquiry voted down by MPs MPs rejected a Tory amendment calling for a grooming gang's inquiry by 253 votes.

You could not make it up!πŸ™ˆ
Tories tried to scupper Child Protection Bill in order to pass proposal 4 another natl child grooming inquiry!
Knowing that we just had a Β£200m inquiry, whose findings they refused to implement!
