https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2026/mar/07/uk-stockpile-food-climate-shocks-war. Prof. Tim Lang is absolutely right - from the selfish POV of this country. What worries me, however, is the impact this #stockpiling would have on other countries, especially those with less #money. I fear, in the context of #food #resource #scarcity, caused by #climatechange, etc., it would be a beggar-my-neighbour #policy. WE would be alright - other, poorer, people wouldn't.

Excellent video about the cost of letting tech run wild and destroy literally everything.

My online life apart from here is reducing.
Yet another group I've been involved with has gone down the AI route, proudly telling us it is trained on all the available research papers to answer my questions. And the first 2 questions are free.
Nothing about the use of copyright research papers, or the huge environmental costs. Just an assurance it can answer my questions so I don't need to do my own research.

I've lost count of how many sites I've closed accounts on or unsubscribed from in the past weeks.

#BigOil has just won a US$345 million ruling against #Greenpeace.

Not for pollution.
Not for an oil spill.
For peaceful #protest.

This lawsuit sends a chilling message. If corporations can use the courts to punish environmental groups for speaking out, anyone who challenges fossil fuel power could be next.

This type of corporate bullying is designed to rob us of our rights and freedoms.

When judges face complex cases, they need facts they can trust. That is why the quiet removal of a climate science chapter from a major judicial reference manual is so alarming. Courts often deal with Pollution, public health, and damage to the environment. So when politics pushes science aside, everyone should pay attention
