Spending less time on world news since US voters re-elected a rapist/convicted felon, who tried to end democracy, but who Americans decided to give a mulligan, cuz democracy shlemocracy right? Occasionally I’ll come across something that I feel compelled to share, but… …these days… I've stopped my dreaming …these days I sit on corner stones & count the time in quarter tones to ten

#Trump Administration Sharply Cuts Protections for #EndangeredSpecies
The Trump admin Friday moved to open the #habitats of imperiled animals to #farming, #drilling, #mining, #RealEstate #development & other activities in what environmentalists characterized as the most severe erosion of protections for #wildlife in half a century.
It did so by recasting a single word, “harm.”

It's time to look up! We all live in/on the same bubble - called earth. No 2nd chance Boosting since 2018 about climate Born at ~325ppm If you want to rescue your comfort zone -> block this account! #nobot

UK newspapers have already published 63 editorials this year calling for more #oil and #gas extraction in the #NorthSea, according to Carbon Brief analysis.
The national outlets, including the #Sun, the #DailyTelegraph and the #Times, argue that the nation “needs” more North Sea #drilling to provide “home-sourced oil and gas” amid a “full-blown energy crisis”.
These newspapers seek to blame energy secretary Ed Miliband’s “net-zero crusade” for curbing UK fossil-fuel production – despite supplies dwindling for decades before he took the role.

The nice thing about science is that it doesn't require belief or positive opinion. Scientific truth is demonstrable. https://gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/mlo.html Born at 314ppm. #CO2 #climate #ClimateChange #Collapse2040 #Methane (#CH₄) is a also a potent #GreenhouseGas which, in my view, makes so-called 'natural gas' dirtier than coal. The FF industry, and governments, deliberately ignore most of the leakage in production and transmission: https://gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends_ch4/

Hold the Government to its promise! No new #oil and #gas in our seas. Offshore #drilling causes hundreds of toxic spills, deafens #whales, and won't even lower our #EnergyBills. It's time to stop letting #BigOil profit at the expense of our #ocean.

There are thousands of dirty old drill sites in Colorado. The state gave oil firms a $1bn pass https://www.theguardian.com/environment/ng-interactive/2026/jun/02/oil-well-sites-cleanup-colorado-chevron-oxy-civitas
