Dozens are missing as floods & landslides deluge Nepal’s capital city and Kathmandu Valley, claiming numerous lives. Solidarity with survivors & all involved in rescue efforts ❤️ Greedy corporations must be held to account for worsening such disasters.

There’s a huge amount of confusion - and misinformation - surrounding ICE vs EV debate, ie which has larger emissions & ecological impact. Terrific animated video here that examines facts clearly & cogently (if you’re a petrol-head, look away now). https://t.co/wNGLcqBoYD

"Shellfish industry on a 'knife edge' as sewage dumped in designated waters for 192,000 hours last year." And right on cue this comes along, the shellfish industry having to pickup the tab for the water industry's greed and the regulator's failure. https://t.co/cUpBkY1Wla

Human sewage can carry diseases and viruses like e.coli and norovirus, although molluscs are then soaked in sterile tanks so they can usually purify themselves before they are sold.

Savage heatwave conditions across vast swathes of Asia over the last week. That’s in late April. Have a feeling we should be paying a *lot* more attention to this.

The media is not making clear the magnitude of what is happening to us. We are changing the fundamentals of existence and life support on Earth @skynews @bbcnews @itvnews
Still cannot believe what happened in southern Oklahoma last night. We likely experienced one of the most powerful tornadoes ever. It wasn’t really expected, which makes it even more intriguing. This storm showcased tornadic characteristics nearly 18,000 feet into the upper

🚨SHAMELESS: while leaders negotiate how to help the world's poorest deal with the WORST IMPACTS of climate change, Shell announce $7.7 BILLION in profit. Their RECKLESS hunt for profits needs to end. When will world leaders find their backbone and make polluters PAY?
