What a damning reflection of the pitifully low priority currently given to climate adaptation - yet building local & national resilience to increasingly damaging impacts is vital to keeping people safe & building support for more ambitious emission cuts

A few things are guaranteed to make the world a lot less safe.

Giving more power to big oil corporations is definitely one of them.

A damaging hurricane in a warmer world

How would a major hurricane that hit Jamaica in 1903 be different today, in a warmer world?

It would drop more rain. (At least)

Air temperatures, soil temperatures and reanalyses all agree on how the UK’s climate has warmed & varied over the past decades.

Don’t listen to the usual critics who try to claim otherwise…

‘“Faragism” is neoliberalism at its most inhumane, more destructive even than [Thatcher’s] monetarism, and vindictive far beyond austerity.’

Good analysis by Gordon Brown - and why progressives should attack Farage on economics above all:

The ocean gives us food, oxygen, livelihoods, and climate regulation.
But it’s under threat from overfishing, climate change, pollution, and habitat loss.

When our ocean is in crisis, so are we.
Protecting it means protecting life itself.

Last year, we were lucky enough to welcome Dr Jane Goodall to the Greenpeace stage at Glastonbury, where she shared this beautiful message of HOPE in tough times.

Rest in peace, Jane. Thank you so much for all the hope you gave to us all. 💚💚

🆕 from @ember-energy.org: renewables are helping Spain break free from gas price spikes!

The EU must scale up renewables across the continent to lower bills, break away from fossil fuels and ensure a clean & just transition ☀️
