Globally, 2024 saw a record 6.7 million hectares of primary tropical rainforest lost—nearly double 2023's amount. That's 18 football fields per minute! Fires and agriculture drive this crisis.

This article from 6 mths reads as chillingly prescient. In August in the UK, a protest against Israel’s genocide led to 532 arrests, more than half aged over 60 (many 70s / 80s). That is where Chris Minns is taking NSW: Criminalising dissent and gutting democracy.

Palestine is shrinking. Israel is expanding. History books are not needed to understand colonialism. It’s on live stream.
🚨 Nothing to see here. Just Israel building 13 military outposts in and around the 58% of Gaza they've stolen. But yeah, it was about the hostages, right?

The trend doesn’t lie. Decades of November Arctic sea-ice data show a clear shift from positive to persistent negative anomalies. This isn’t noise or variability — it’s a structural loss of winter ice, and it matters profoundly for what follows in spring and summer.

Compare Robodebt victims' compo to the quantum of Scott Morrison's publicly funded legal fees. It's shameful, reports Rex Patrick.

A Palestinian man weeps helplessly as Israeli regime bulldozers demolish his family’s home in Silwan, occupied Jerusalem - razing a building that was home to 11 Palestinian families. Ethnic cleansing in broad daylight and with full Western support.

Deforestation today, devastation tomorrow. A swampy Melaleuca forest in Papua, Indonesia, was destroyed. 🇮🇩 These swamp forests had absorbed floodwaters and supported wildlife. Their destruction raised flood risks as we seen in Sumatra, and threatened livelihoods.

I can only contrast this mostly unedifying event at Bondi with the Christchurch massacre memorial. Empathy, dignity & inclusion vs a right wing political rally.

So according to Callipers Claire Saudi Sunni extremists are funding the Iranian Shia extremists. Ladies and Gentlemen the intellectual dim web.
I’d be more sympathetic if Australian progressives admitted they had a blind spot on antisemitism. Instead there’s just been more denial: blaming Bondi on Netanyahu, or insisting that Islamic State ideology has nothing to do with all the pro-Hamas marches in our streets.
