Ivy is such a powerhouse for pollinators. The ivy in the garden is literally buzzing with life. Bumblebees, wasps, honey bees, hover flies and even two beautiful Red Admirals 😍🌱

In 2019, millions marched in cities around the world. Today, its quieter.
But the majority is still here. Let’s make it visible again.

New research has found that 80% of Irish children never cycle to school.
In other words, policy is working exactly as intended.
Decades of car-centric planning have steadily taken away children’s independence and freedom.

'Absolute generational collapse' in cycling because it's 'simply not safe'
New research has found that 80% of children never cycle to school, even though over two thirds of parents said they wished their kids did.

Dear government, don’t send startling, high-pitched alerts about wildfires to ordinary people's phones. Send them to the CEOs of fossil fuel companies and make them impossible to switch off until they stop the destructive plunder that's contributing to climate change.

The Irish embassy in Tel Aviv is refusing these visas. What's going on there and who is in charge of making these cruel decisions?

We built modern society on a single, unspoken commandment:
Thou shalt grow the GDP forever.
We optimized everything for this number. But we forgot one critical detail. The denominator is fixed. 🧵👇

I feel physically sick after reading this 😢
No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions.
Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
AI labs buy, scan, shred millions of rare books
If you have retreated to physical books because the internet is too full of AI slop, bad news — now they’re shredding the books to feed their AI slop machines.
