We're just not serious......
World's climate plans would cut emissions by only a tenth of what's needed, UN report says
World elite have decided that Earth should no longer be a habitable or livable planet putting short term profit and economic as more important
Utter lunacy

Climate change should be formally declared a global health emergency, according to a new Lancet Countdown report involving 146 researchers.
Heat-related deaths have risen sharply, with human-caused climate change responsible for more than 70% of the 710,000 deaths linked to heat in 2023.
Researchers are urging governments to act.

This "Be Ready" omission in the budget is genuinely bemusing. It creates the inescapable assumption that rebuilding societal resilience (at a time when the Defence Secretary says the UK needs to be ready for the possibility of war by 2030) is not a priority for the Andy Burnham government
There is not a single mention in the Budget of the government's new three-year "Be Ready" campaign to strengthen national resilience in the face of mounting threats (from severe weather to war).
This feels like an oversight⬇️

Just a casual reminder that Germans who “didn’t bother to vote” in 1932 didn’t get a chance again until 1946, after Hitler’s death. — There’s a lesson there.

Witkoff tried to convince Budanov of how rich he could be if he sold out his country by allowing Russian pipelines to again flow through Ukraine. Budanov ended the meeting.
Content of Tense Conversation Between Budanov and Trump's Team Revealed
Negotiations between the Ukrainian delegation and Donald Trump's special envoys in Miami, as reported by Le Monde, escalated into a conflict. According to the publication, during a three-hour meeting at the Shell Bay golf club, Steve Witkoff "with irritation" demanded that Kyrylo Budanov, head of Zelenskyy's office, cease strikes on Russian oil refineries.
Budanov, per Le Monde's information, "barely contained his anger" and felt that he was being "treated like a child, trying to teach him how to make money." The Americans presented an ambitious plan for postwar "regional prosperity," which envisioned resuming the transit of Russian oil and gas to Europe through Ukraine, with dividends paid to Kyiv.
Budanov was outraged that such a deal would tie Ukraine to Moscow, after which the negotiations broke off. When the meeting resumed, the Americans proposed accepting a deal for supplies of Russian diesel to the United States.
The publication's sources noted that they had never seen Ukrainians "so upset and alarmed." Zelenskyy's entourage described the situation as "hopeless," since Trump's envoys "think only about business."

How it works.......
Zuckerberg already admitted it wrongly suspended the No Kings Instagram account during the peak of a massive voter-mobilization effort.
Now, seven days before the midterms, Zuckerberg has suspended the account Angie Nixon’s Senate campaign uses to organize Latino voters.
At what point do repeated “mistakes” that suppress organizing by Democrats become an election-integrity crisis?

The US military said it killed five people in an airstrike on a suspected drug-trafficking vessel in the eastern Pacific. The strike was among 70+ such attacks under Trump, killing 240+ people. These are murders and crimes against humanity. trib.al/XJdeKIV

I'm up in Churchill with @PolarBears keeping a close eye on the start of the freeze-up this year. No ice yet, and climate change is pushing this later and later into the season. This means polar bears have to spend more time on land before they can return to the sea ice to hunt.

The world’s private jets release more C02 in two seconds than most people emit in a year, according to a new report by Oxfam. In all, it says, the richest 8 million people on earth do more to destroy the climate than the poorest 3.5 million.
