This piece (open access) by me/Josh/Alistair draws on data plus interviews with industry insiders to argue: aviation emissions pose a major threat to climate; none of proposed tech solutions are viable in next 30 years; SAFs are a hoax; CCS a Big-Oil scam. https://t.co/356yyii4Cn

This paper argues that rising aviation emissions, which are disproportionally driven by the wealthy, pose a serious threat to climate goals. Using the UK’s Jet Zero strategy as a case study, it exp...

Just out, another brilliant book by Carton & Malm. It's a book for our era -- in which everything is dying and yet there's everything to play for. It's a book for the movement. Invite Wim/Andreas to your bookshop, trade union or party conference, university, etc.

This, I co-wrote with Marianne Brown, argues the UK-EU trade deal - being negotiated this summer - should be used to close the border for soil imports/exports. Keir Starmer's govt, ofc, will do the opposite. https://t.co/pyViEmbTFK

Proud to see hat tmy undergraduate student Lana has summarised her brilliant dissertation - on the strategic crisis in Germany's Letzte Generation climate activist movement - as an article in The Ecologist. https://t.co/RQ6m808mWS

The German climate protest group Letzte Generation is now history. But what will succeed it?

Wonderful to see reviews pouring in for Marianne's book. Today in The Observer; a lovely one in The Scotsman; and even the Torygraph grumblingly conceded it's an "elegant" read. This interview in Shetland News imo gives the best sense of the book.

The world has witnessed the government of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in occupied Gaza. Month after month, the government of Israel has treated Palestinians in Gaza as a subhuman group unworthy of human rights and dignity, demonstrating its specific intent to

My former student, Yousef Al-Helou, shot many hours of footage of Gaza in the years before the genocide. He has turned it into a film, to help preserve the memory of Gaza. https://t.co/pFyzeD4o97

Sharing again, this time in The Ecologist. The essay considers three types of climate-poliitical tipping point:- earth-systems (with catastrophic results), those of energy-economics (a distant dream), and "social tipping points" (yes, but how?) https://t.co/HflAInBGS6

COP29 fizzled out as catastrophe looms. Could a tipping point in political consciousness still stave off the worst?

This year the world smashes through 1.5 C, and the delegates at #COP29 seem oblivious. This essay looks at tipping points -- those of earth-systems (catastrophic), those of energy-economics (a distant dream), and "social tipping points" (yes, but how?) https://t.co/aLYgmVBvab

Israel’s genocidal mayhem has given me a hideous understanding into the great horrors of the past. How could so many people who regard themselves as decent, humane, ‘moderate’ become complicit in unspeakable atrocities? It’s something I’ve always wondered. After all, only a
Strikes killing hundreds of women and children were applauded. An Iranian strike aimed at military bases and with no victims in Israel was called barbaric. Impossible not to see here a collapse of the Western mind, a wilful embrace of madness

Israel detonating thousands of bombs in Lebanon knowing that this will harm and kill children, civilians, medics and passersby going about their daily lives in markets and on the street is in fact an act of terrorism.

The collapse of the East German economy following unification has combined with racism and neoliberalism to feed far right support.

I'll never forget how Western politicians spent days condemning people who protested peacefully outside a synagogue that was selling ethnically cleansed land. But literally blowing up mosques is not even a story.
Watch | Shocking footage exclusively published by Al-Jazeera shows Israeli occupation forces detonating the ancient Greater Mosque in Khan Yunis. Another video from an Israeli soldier's GoPro captures the raiding of a mosque and the burning of all Quran copies inside.
