Glaciers all over the world are cracking, breaking up and melting. As a result of global warming, the climate sentinels lost 6,500 billion tonnes of ice between 2000 and 2023, the equivalent of three Olympic swimming pools every second. @lemonde.fr www.lemonde.fr/en/environme...

Canadians have a new, selfish reason to want russia to lose decisively in Ukraine. Big bullies can be defeated by the smaller neighbours they attack is a lesson/precedent that we can use right about now!

Deeming a refugee to be not of "good character" because of an irregular entry six or more years ago is disproportionate and perverse. On the contrary, they "will often have shown great courage, fortitude and ingenuity," @crookedfootball.bsky.social writes. Well said.

"Ukrainian war crimes prosecutors believe it is part of Russian policy to execute surrendering prisoners of war. The FT investigates the evidence to map the rise in cases. We talk to the people who are documenting Russian war crimes and we look into a mass execution filmed by a Russian soldier"

Pretty disturbed by some of the Kremlin framing on the Trump talks being bought by parts of the media worldwide. It’s as if the genesis of the war is entirely forgotten. This isn’t a conflict which needs mediation. It was an unprovoked act of aggression. It could end tomorrow if Putin just withdrew.

Great, practical thread of things Europe can do to survive the loss of the transatlantic alliance (which is - for all practical purposes - gone for at least the next four years, given Trump's attitude to European security).

Please attend if you can - we need to show Putin, (and Trump for that matter), that we stand with Ukraine and our continent Europe. If you'd like to share the details below that'd be good too.

Europeans need to work on the assumption that Trump won’t support us militarily and he won’t uphold NATO. But we are almost 600 million people, have the army most experienced in fighting Russia (Ukraine), advanced technology and two nuclear powers. Time to get to work. 🧵

For the millionth time: we need a European Army and we need it now. Not simply more spending. Not simply fiscal rules exceptions. Not simply a military industrial policy. Not just coordination of national capacitirs. We need an Euro Army.
