A market reopened in the town of Jabaliya, offering Gazans fruits and vegetables after over a year of Israeli bombardment. It was a welcome sight after months of hunger and deprivation. But it was not the market it used to be. The photographer Saher Alghorra reflected on the image. nyti.ms/3DeS8XY

Give farmers the option of being paid to rewild their land, just as they are to graze it with sheep or plant it with sitka. As things are, their only livelihood options are ecocidal. That's not the fault of farmers, but society.

Paying farmers to rewild is by far THE most important thing society could do to reverse nature loss. But here in Ireland, it wouldn't involve 'doing nothing'. As someone practising rewilding for almost 16 years, I can tell you it requires very hard work: removing invasives, and much more.

ECIU estimates that the UK has spent ~£140bn in total on wholesale gas between the start of 2021 and the end of 2024 - an extra £90bn on gas over the last four years. One of many reasons to reduce our dependency on gas by shifting to more renewables, better insulation, etc. eciu.net/media/press-...

In my MSc dissertation on climate finance, I show that very high-level financial actors consider the integration of climate data to be a necessary condition for informed decision-making. This means that JP Morgan and other banks are, in effect, making the informed decision to short the Earth.
