In case you haven't been paying attention ... The rise in annualized global CO2 (the difference in the 12-month running average of global CO2 from Jan. 2024 to Jan. 2025) set a record in the latest data from NOAA, growing at a rate of 3.51 ppm per year. gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/...

🌹 Labour's official policy recognises that First Past the Post is "flawed" and driving "distrust & alienation" in politics ⚠️ Now, multi-party politics is colliding with a 2-party system - and inaction is becoming untenable 🎯 We need a National Commission for Electoral Reform

Yep. I saw that the port of Seattle is now empty of Chinese ships.. one way to reduce emissions.

This doesn't touch on the key weakness of our current approach: global emissions continue to rise. All focus should be on how to reduce energy demand, not add more and hope that greening the economy will magically save us.

Funny how folks like to say that humanities degrees are “useless” while the world is being actively destroyed by people not knowing about history, ethics, media literacy, or how to think critically. But sure, tell me again how STEM alone will save us.

Why quit flying? We do it for justice. We should not wait until the climate crisis feels 'closer to home' in order to make lifestyle changes. People's lives are devastated NOW because of our high-carbon lifestyles. Sign up to the Flight-Free Challenge today: flightfree.co.uk

It's been over a month since I updated this graphic -- my analysis: still f&%ked. The average global surface temperature anomaly so far this year, Jan. 1 - Apr. 23, 2025, is 1.62°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC pre-industrial baseline.
