Aye! ‘Power Without Responsibility’, Curran et al, is a great read about the billionaire press and their influence over the last 150 years.

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El Niño

The Guardian on our new study, which shows that global heating is significantly gathering speed. Our efforts to overcome our fossil fuel addiction should do the same.

While that might be the case for Walter, who we already know has set aside his morals to save himself, I would say Jesse definitely has a defined character arc, who starts off selfish and seemingly amoral, but gradually, bit by bit, shows himself to be deeply empathic as we move through the seasons.

I absolutely disagree. When WW just stands there watching a woman choke to death on her own vomit I was practically weeping and screaming at the TV “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! DON’T JUST STAND THERE!!”

If we hadn’t already realised he was a monster by then, that moment was like 100 nails in the coffin.

Hannah Ritchie has built a fun little tool where you can compare energy usage of various products and activities.

This is super helpful imho, because it's so hard to develop intuitions even just about the scales involved here.

Oh smeg. RIP Rob Grant.

I can’t begin to tell you what an influence Red Dwarf was, on our entire family.

My parents loved it. My wife and I love it. The kids love it.

We were only watching Gunmen of the Apocalypse days ago.

So this one hits hard.

Mr. Flibble is very sad.

We need a global assessment of avoidable climate-change risks To understand the urgency of emissions reductions, policymakers and citizens need a full analysis of what is at stake.

“To understand the urgency of emissions reductions, policymakers and citizens need a full analysis of what is at stake.”

100% needed, and be continually newsworthy and raised in parliament, so folk truly realise why we need to be on a decarbonisation war footing.

Given the enormous suffering that is the consequence of climate change, yes, we should update our terminology. Climate violence and climate atrocity capture pretty well what is happening, or what do you think?

Third line down on the left page - for the life of me I still cannot play those three bars both hands together on the harp. It is bar 2 that ruins everything for me.

It's time to realise that the richest most powerful people on the planet are the most evil, greediest people on the planet.

Stop believing their propaganda about themselves and realise that they are THE problem, the only one.
