CUTTING THE TIGHTROPE: 14 short plays by award-winning playwrights prompted by the censorship of Palestine. 📍@arcolatheatre 📆26 Nov - 7 Dec 🎟 arcolatheatre.com/whats-on/cutti…

🗣️Press Statement: The Palestine Football Association (PFA) is gravely concerned by the sequence of violent events in Amsterdam, starting with the deplorable incitement to violence, anti-Palestinian racism, and Islamophobia expressed by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, who also attacked homes and shops displaying the Palestinian flag in solidarity with the victims of the ongoing genocide. The PFA had presented FIFA with extensive evidence of such hateful expressions, yet concrete action remains lacking. As emphasized in our recent proposal to the FIFA Congress, FIFA cannot currently ensure the safety and security of fans around matches involving Israeli teams. A recent incident in Greece—where an Arab man was beaten unconscious by a group of Israeli supporters—illustrates the urgent need for intervention. The absence of accountability for such entrenched violence and normalized racism has only led to further unfortunate incidents, such as those in Amsterdam. Violence and hate in all their manifestations have no place in sports. We are also deeply concerned by efforts to exploit such events to mute pro-Palestine voices and ban the display of Palestinian symbols. Such actions are discriminatory and unacceptable. The PFA calls on UEFA and FIFA to address the normalization of genocidal, racist, and Islamophobic rhetoric among Israeli football supporters and to implement concrete measures to combat this hostility.

The world feels a whole lot more terrifying this morning - especially for any hope of climate action. Right now I feel sick. But I also know we have choices on how to respond - and will try even harder to light candles rather than curse the darkness 🕯️

British Columbia Canada today. Climate change is increasing the overall frequency and intensity of atmospheric rivers because a warmer atmosphere can hold more moisture. We know this is because of carbon primarily from oil, gas and coal trapped in our atmosphere. We have to stop expanding the problem.

Oil drilling in a protected whale site is set to go ahead in Greece. The country is allowing new fossil fuel projects that destroy habitats for whales, dolphins and turtles. We are telling the EU to make sure Greece doesn’t destroy its vital biodiversity.
