So, @JustStop_Oil temporarily vandalise a painting & lots of people - people I respect - are outraged. Big Oil are deliberately vandalising our world! In 2022 they’ve destroyed an actual country - thousands are dead & millions face famine in Pakistan. Where is that same outrage?

This is so beyond f&%ked up -- 1 billion crabs just gone, the decimation of a species can happen in a heartbeat. It's not about the economic impact -- it's about the collapse of the habitability of a major ecosystem for one of its most critical species. masslive.com/news/2022/10/1…

As a culture we need to ask ourselves why throwing a can of soup over a painting (with a protective cover) gets more attention, trends higher, than the coming collapse of the Amazon rain forest. #VanGogh itv.com/news/2022-10-1…

⚠️ Wildlife populations are plummeting ⚠️ 🔻 In less than a lifetime, wildlife populations have dropped on average by 69%. As a main driver of biodiversity loss, tackling #ClimateChange is crucial to reversing the destruction of biodiversity. #LivingPlanetReport

Remember: You cannot adapt to lost cultures. You cannot adapt to lost traditions. You cannot adapt to lost history. You cannot adapt to starvation. You cannot adapt to extinction." Just stop media downplaying & fake-solutioning on biodiversity annihilation and climate chaos. 🧵

We protect paintings behind reinforced glass. What are we doing to protect the livability of the planet we all live on? @JustStop_Oil

The Brazilian Amazon, containing 40% of Earth’s tropical forests, has passed the tipping point. Unless the role of Indigenous peoples and territories in preserving the most sensitive ecosystems on the planet is recognised in the next 24 months, we may anticipate total collapse.🧵

This should be all over the BBC Homepage along with clear explanations of how economic growth means the utter calamity of between 1.75°C and 2.5°C of global warming within years not decades. But, of course, it isn't.
Just Stop Oil@JustStop_Oil

Today, thousands of supporters of Just Stop Oil once again gather at Euston, Paddington and Waterloo Stations — to march on and occupy Westminster for the second day in a row. Folk musician Sam Lee explains why it’s important to come out onto the streets at this time of crisis.

Ideally this change would be achieved by people being informed enough so they can adjust their ‘wants’, rather than having their ‘wants’ curtailed by a collapsing society.

Dr Charlie Gardner (also on the blue place)
Never thought I'd see mainstream conservation NGOs calling for a mass mobilisation against the government, but here we are. It's beyond time for more conservationists to go beyond our comfort zones, and rise up. Do we want to conserve nature, or not?

Get a ‘good’ job. Fuck the planet. Buy your own car. Fuck the planet. Jet off on holiday. Fuck the planet. Then buy loads of stuff. Fuck the planet some more. Everything we strive for in this fossil fueled system fucks the planet. If we want to survive, WE have to change.
