These events can no longer be seen as isolated tragedies in our feeds. They are a dire warning of what’s ahead. The question isn’t if the next disaster will strike, but how we will respond — and whether we can find the collective will to prevent the worst from unfolding. 6/6

But as we know, the true culprits are the fossil fuel industry and their allies in media, business, and policy. We must move beyond outrage, into meaningful action. We need to focus on climate justice, sustainable policies, and building resilient communities. 5/6

They signify a new reality; one where the rhythms of everyday life are punctuated by the looming threat of disaster. There’s been plenty of finger-pointing this past week; budget cuts, under-resourced departments, poor land management (much of which is misinformation). 4/6

Many have expressed shock over the LA fires. Yet those of us working in climate know this is microcosm of the climate chaos unfolding around the world, as well as a preview of what’s to come. These fires represent more than just physical destruction... 3/6

I'll never forget the videos of people standing on their roofs, desperately trying to fight the flames It’s a chilling reminder of a quote that’s circulating: “Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones, until you're the one filming it.” 2/6

I’ve spent the past month offline. A few days ago, I checked IG for the first time to find apocalyptic scenes from LA. It took me straight back to Australia’s “Black Summer” — smoke visible from space, people trapped on beaches, 2 billion animals consumed by the flames. 1/6

Today, we marched to the U.S embassy with a simple demand: stop arming Israel. We are going to be here as long as it takes to bring about peace and justice. We will never walk away from the people of Palestine.

Stop selling arms to Israel then.
The situation in Lebanon is volatile and getting worse. The UK government is providing an option for British nationals to leave now. My message is clear – take it. https://t.co/ZkVAlcYMzq

For the past year, millions of us around the world have made repeated, desperate calls for a ceasefire. We demanded an end to the genocide. We warned of a disastrous regional conflict. We were ignored. Governments have fuelled the machinery of war. Their indifference to human

The government says they have no choice but to cut winter fuel allowance. That is a lie. They could bring in wealth taxes as a start. Instead, they are choosing to push more pensioners into poverty. Defend the principle of universalism — no cuts to welfare!

This is the West Bank, not Gaza. While Biden officials pretend Netanyahu wants a ceasefire, Israel is *expanding* its assault to the West Bank. Guess which story gets the wall-to-wall coverage in the media. https://t.co/gXO3BNUkK7

The scale and intensity of Israel's four-day incursion in Jenin is very alarming. Israeli forces keep obstructing access to health facilities blocking and even targeting ambulances, delaying people’s access to care.

The longest sentence handed down to a violent racist rioter this week is shorter than the sentences imposed on entirely peaceful environmental protesters last month. Labour must repeal the Tory laws that treat peaceful protest more severely than violent disorder and assault.

And the proof is in his track record: he has passed legislation protecting abortion rights as well as passing gun safety measures, & consistently taken on corporate interests. As Bernie said last week, he's the leader who will speak up for working people. 5/5

As these clips show, he does an incredible job of breaking down complex issues into straightforward policies. He always speaks to how they will tangibly improve people's lives. Instead of being divisive, he has championed a politics where everyone is welcome. 4/5
