When I was a kid we were taught that emissions were warming up the atmosphere, increasing the probability of things like wild fires, even in chilly old Britain. We drew pictures. We wrote to MPs. This was my neighbourhood yesterday

My anger at the deniers, obstructionists & shills knows no bounds

Climate change exacerbates existing social inequalities. Vulnerable communities, including the poor,marginalized groups, and developing nations,bear the brunt of its consequences.By raising awareness and advocating for climate justice,we work towards equitable access to resources and opportunities

Not fair.

Anyone good at small snails found high on the strandline, where the hazelnuts and hurdles get storm driven? Terrestrial? Marine? 6-10mm long. Isles of Scilly. @brianecambs.bsky.social

Fish farms
• Consume vast amounts of industrially-trawled wild fish, wasting 75%
• Turn rich seabeds below into deadzones
• Give parasites & diseases to wild fish
• Are horrific for farmed fish
• Produce toxic, chemical-laden food
• Are eyesores in beauty spots
• Harm tourism & fishing jobs

Interesting afternoon on the beach. Chinese haemorrhoid cream. Russian topical antibiotics. French hand cream. And a flamingo and loads of other plastic.

Is this stunted but fertile Cladonia rangiformis @brianecambs.bsky.social @britishlichensociety.org.uk? Some squamules, with small podetia coming from some. Podetia with green splodges on pale background - "giraffe-markings"? Better developed podetia ending in fingers tipped with dark tiny apothecia

Holm sound, becomes copper plate, long after the sun had left today.
