Sooner or later we’re going to have to face the reality that conservatism and capitalism is killing us. It’s not a debate. It’s a fact. It’s literally happening right now in front of our eyes. If you can’t see it you either don’t understand it, or you are intentionally lying to…

“The only gods who ever mattered, and who actually exist even to this day, are being crucified as we speak. Human civilisation begun by worshiping the right gods: the weather systems, the ecosystem, and Gaia. These were real, as opposed to the fake gods which were subsequently…

127 children killed per-day in Auschwitz in 5 years.

139 children killed per day in Gaza in 135 days.

Just like there can be no justification for the Holocaust, there can be no justification for the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. Both deserve the same condemnation.

I don't think people really appreciate the tremendous impact agriculture has on this planet.

Have we messed up the marketing of the greatest challenge in history?

“climate change”
“climate crisis”
“climate emergency”

The fate of future generations is at stake, and we cannot afford to waste time and money on techno-fixes that are ineffective at achieving our climate goals. The clear path forward? Restoring nature, building community resilience, and learning to live with less.

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and 'safe' temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯.
