Week 285. Today we are unable to have a climate strike. I’m one of 5 activists in a trial in London for peacefully protesting against an oil conference in October. The demonstration aimed to highlight the terrible consequence of the everyday business of fossil corporations.

Today's #WorldWetlandsDay spotlights our most vulnerable ecosystem.

Nearly 50% of coastal wetlands have been lost over the last 100 years, as a result of the combined effects of localised human pressures, sea level rise, warming & extreme climate events. bit.ly/SRYRpt23

RT @vickihird: the importance of pollinators - great pic from @IPBES

🐝 #Pollinators are responsible for much more than food-crops. From biofuels to medicines, we rely on pollinators in much of our daily lives.

Check out a few facts about pollinators from the @IPBES #PollinationAssessment ⬇️

RT @Greenpeaceafric: Analysis exposes the socio-environmental toll of industrial giants like @TotalEnergies in the pursuit of fossil fuels.

Despite 'green' claims, our findings shed light on conflicts, colonial ties, and the real price of fossil fuels.
