Unless we focus on the existential issues we face, we are completely kippered. But the plutocratic grip on media and politics ensures we focus on anything but. This week's column. https://t.co/hBCrWYMnPK

🚨 BREAKING: Peaceful protesters assaulted while demanding the UK Government stop licensing new fossil fuels. 🌡 No one likes being disrupted, but also no one likes their government actively planning genocide. 💀 New oil and gas will kill millions of people. What will you do?

🦺 Louise, 24: “I'm here because I don't have a future. You might hate me for doing this, but I wish you would direct all that anger and hatred at our Government. They are betraying young people like me — I wouldn't have to be here if they did their duty.” #FreeLouis #FreeJosh

18 members of @ScientistRebel1 are in custody overnight for the crime of speaking the truth to the public, of requesting governments to act upon Climate Failure. No scientist wants to do civil disobedience, but we must. Staying silent is condemning us all to death. #LevelWithUs

If I could write one perfect article about why our personal climate actions *are* political, and how they give other people hope, it would be this one by @AaronRegunberg in the @newrepublic. 📣 @ezraklein @billmckibben @RebeccaSolnit you're all in here💚 https://t.co/gMWFOTH4Zg

The point of biking or going vegan isn’t the impact of a single person’s choice. It’s about throwing everything we’ve got at a problem that feels overwhelming.
