Everything that Labour ought to stand for - but doesn't - is in the Green Party manifesto. My column. https://t.co/7IizkGON6G

The party’s manifesto, which pledges to use a wealth tax to revitalise our public services, shows it can push Labour to raise its ambitions, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

It is this intensely focused, passionately felt defence of our brother and sister species that awakens something in us, something we thought had disappeared with childhood. We are still in love with this wild earth that birthed our wild hearts. @WeallIreland
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your outrage. They have just written again. The tree is reprieved. Notice how they say they will still go ahead after they carry out bat/bird surveys, predetermining the outcome of these surveys! It's not over yet.

This is what happens when our only lens for seeing and valuing other species is, ultimately, the market. Prices never reflect the intrinsic rights of species to thrive and flourish. Let’s put the rights of nature at the heart of our constitution, at the heart of who we are.
Irish wild salmon have collapsed from 1.76 million in 1975 to 171,700 in 2022. And it's the same almost everywhere you look: birds, insects, plants, whole ecosystems ... nature is vanishing on our watch. But there *is* a cure: mass REWILDING. 🌏 https://t.co/KxEhwJ7iiR

Wow. Just wow. There's no coming back from this for Israel now. Globally, people are getting informed about the horrific, racist injustices inflicted on Palestinians for so long. And if you aren't, it's time you did.
Three different people spotted on my train carriage on the way into Dublin City centre reading Khalidi’s The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine on this the eve of Nakba day.

Stop whatever you’re doing and take a few minutes to listen to this breathtaking speech by @laurensunfl0wer telling oil chiefs that, since they have no humanity to appeal to, we will instead fight to stop them destroying our living planet for profit. https://t.co/BIGcPDL3M4

The sonic world of nocturnal migration is fascinating. It shines a light on the unknown & lets you hear birds in an out of place context. Here is a Coot migrating along the Ballycotton cliffs @ 00:25am. Hear the crashing waves & echo of its calls bounce off the cliffs as it goes.

We will remember
Israel believe that there is no power in the world that will hold them to account. But they are wrong. They & their children’s children will be haunted by what they have done. The millions of protestors on streets are the hope for the future of the world https://t.co/Ze71QO5HGE

The human right to a healthy environment and the rights of nature are inextricable @WeallIreland @WEAll_Alliance
People are increasingly understanding that without protection of the rights of nature, there cannot be a human right to a healthy environment. Human rights and the rights of nature go hand in hand. We need a referendum!
