Retiree and Buddhist nun Avatar: old person in garden Header pic: hermitary kitchen, sunshine coming through windows #Hierarchy is bad for everyone. #Enclosure and #exploitation of the #commons by #industrialists and #rentiers degrades the #biosphere, bringing environmental and social harms. I curate and post links reporting damage but also efforts to prevent, reduce or mitigate damage. Not every link is an endorsement. YMMV. #ecology #climate #pollution #environmentalhealth #communityhealth
Late Gen X. Adopted city Norwich, started out life in Dorset. Juggling twins, hearing aids, politics and climate concerns. Partial to dramatic landscapes, Wes Andersonesque architecture, unsung historical figures and Peanuts cartoons. Do we all get better at juggling or do we acknowledge some balls are just too precious to drop?

Californian with a wide variety of interests, but since 2016, seeking justice, democratic norms, improving public: education & health, access to the arts, inclusivity, ethics in government, finance & business, human rights, IMM, ENVIR & worker protections, accountability for the oligarch criminality in the US & helping America turn blue.
I am a retired academic, with an MA & PhD in Social Policy & Administration from the Universities of York & Kent respectively. I am disabled, & am deeply concerned about human, gay and disability rights, the climate emergency and the biodiversity crisis. I was politically homeless, but now favour the Green Party. I like films, classical music, jazz & reading.

And this is the journalism that the #fossilfuel industry is licking its lips at:
‘Independent polling by trade association Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) revealed more than seven in ten people believe the UK should produce oil and gas from its own waters rather than rely on imports.’
-
‘independent polling’ my arse!
-
just proves that 7/10 people in UK have no idea that we don’t domestically use oil from North Sea.
