@Patrick60715592 @darren_cullen @PhilipProudfoot I love how the only arguments there are against workers rights is “someone I know/I suffered greatly under horrid working conditions therefore you should too”

Why climate movements struggle to talk about class by Emma River-Roberts countercurrents.org/2026/05/why-cl… Climate movements often speak about inequality, yet discussions of class remain limited within many environmental spaces. In this article, Emma River-Roberts examines class as both an economic and social relationship, shaping power, belonging, and whose voices are heard. Drawing on the work of bell hooks and others, she argues that working-class people are frequently excluded from climate decision-making and that environmental movements risk reproducing the inequalities they seek to challenge. Understanding class, she contends, is essential for building a more democratic, inclusive, and effective climate movement capable of addressing the roots of ecological and social crises.

✍️ In our latest article, Kevin Picado discusses how the plastic crisis isn't a waste management problem but an overproduction problem, rooted in the petrochemical industry's structural dependence on fossil fuels: wccalliance.org/the-real-issue…

A legal maximum working temperature is absolutely necessary for the protection of workers' health. This was the temperature recorded inside a bus by its driver in London yesterday.

It's great to see a greater focus on class in climate spaces than before. What I don't see so much, are discussions about what it 'is'. I've written for @_WCCA emphasising the need to understand it as a social, cultural, & economic phenomena. wccalliance.org/so-what-is-soc…

1/2 "Being a landlord isn't inherently unethical." Actually, yes it is. Rent ties economies to endless growth. Rent income floats above actual production, so economies are forced to grow endlessly to sustain it. That pressure feeds ecological breakdown. inews.co.uk/opinion/hated-…

🌎🔎The World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) has published it’s State of the Global Climate 2025 report 🔎🌎 The report argues that rapid and large-scale changes have occurred within a few decades but will have harmful repercussions for hundreds – and potentially thousands – of years. 📍Read our article and the full report here: tinyurl.com/4sjb4dff

Unfortunately, an incredibly challenging funding climate means that we have closed down the campaigning and membership side of the organisation. We’ll be taking a short break to update the website and plan what comes next. Read the statement in full: wccalliance.org/wcca-operation…
