The Sustainable Hour

FYI: Since 26 April 2024 we have stopped using Twitter/X because we think Elon Musk, the owner of this platform, is a climate denying fool, and we do in no way want to support his business.

This is how bot farms work - funded by foreign actors, oil companies, petro states etc designed to fan division, conspiracy theories and destabilise whole nations

@lindayaX I’m guessing that they are boycotting X because you and Elon have turned it into a shit show of misinformation, racism and idiocy. Wake up and look around, @lindayaX. You’re bleeding money, and advertisers, because you have no moderation.

The Danish clean energy company Ørsted - a conmpany that displaces significantly more fossil fuel use than Tesla - has decided not to run ads on X. So now, Musk sues Ørsted for boycotting X.  power-technology.com/news/musk-sues… #BoycottX

Hm.... that's the drop: Time to leave Twitter/X.

🚨 Happening now! 🚨 We are back at @CPHAirports with @ExtinctionRDK to demand a ban on private jets and the creation of binding citizen assemblies! 🔥

"The end result of this dynamic is a govt that will proudly stroll into the history books as the overseers of massive and prolonged supply of a deadly, outdated and dangerous product. Anthony Albanese: the grinning king of climate disaster." ~ Ketan Joshi ketanjoshi.co/2024/03/31/ant…

Seriously, you're going to wake one morning in the 2050s in a home warmed by your wind powered heat pump, open the dividend from your solar farm share, ride to work on an electric bus passing fields of agroforestry brimming with wildlife, and wonder what all the fuss was about.

"Doorfietsroutes" (cycle-through route) = a long-distance cycle route constructed to encourage people to take the bike more in their commute to work. 🚲 146km of “doorfietsroutes” were added in 2023 in The Netherlands Learn more: fietsberaad.nl/Kennisbank/Doo…

Must we sit and watch them die Its only a dried up muddy pool that needs water Imagine what a few flying machines of water dropped could do/ But its not a priority for any country or global elite

@MrMatthewTodd 2017: climatesafety.info/publicbroadcas… @MrMatthewTodd - it's not like focusing hasn't been on the media, however the campaigning has just not been successful, because media people feel "they know their trade" - so they are not going to take advice from a specific group of activists.

The biggest mistake the green movement is making is not focusing on the media. The public don’t understand. These numbers are an underestimation IMHO. Hardly anyone I know really understands how serious and imminent disaster is. Only the mass media can change that. Once enough people really understand their kids probably don’t have long term futures at thus point, they would demand action

FYI, when ‘providing for our kids’ means a corporate job, a big mortgage, a bigger car, plastic wrapped animals, endless disposable tat & flying round the world, the thing we’re actually providing them with is a collapsed society on an inhospitable planet.

Since 2010, battery costs have fallen by more than 90% — offering opportunities to cut emissions in road transport & electricity In 2023, electric car sales rose to almost 14 million. And battery storage deployment in the power sector more than doubled 👉 iea.li/49Xo910

Selling the car as the mobility solution for our cities was probably one of the most impressive policy scams of the 20th century. (video excerpt from an @Uber commercial)

The most important news anywhere - as reported nowhere.

These people are spreading lies here and now ... ‘Climate denial’ ad pulled from The Australian after being labelled ‘deceptive’. #ClimateAction #ClimateCatastrophe theguardian.com/media/commenti…
