Zack is up for the fight our communities need. The real alternative to politics as usual. Every time I’ve met @zackpolanski.bsky.social, I’ve seen his ability to listen and lift others up. Zack tells it like it is. Now we must get the message out there. #BackZack for @greenparty.org.uk leader.

Very exciting to hear that not only are people voting for @greenparty.org.uk They're taking the second obvious step and joining too! Join us: join.greenparty.org.uk

We live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, and yet 1 in 7 people in the UK are facing hunger. This isn't right. Repost if you agree

One more cascading disaster in world profoundly out of balance: "changes in prey availability, system-wide reductions in the abundance of seagrass and drifting macroalgae driven by shading from intense, extensive & long-lasting bloom of phytoplankton" #Biodiversity phys.org/news/2025-04...
