How does an impartial environmental scientist come to focus on societal structure and human rights? It's really not that complicated, and I would argue it is self-evident and necessary. 🧵 1/n

When #reality feels like a fake, #writing becomes a challenge even for #journalists: "The answer to my writer’s block was in front of me all along: all I needed to do was to talk to other people - I believe we must try to help people to look up and out instead, to #connect with one another. Good journalism can do this. Forge the kind of #connections that people are missing, that people long for." https://www.theguardian.com/media/ng-interactive/2026/may/06/how-to-survive-the-information-crisis-we-once-talked-about-fake-news-now-reality-itself-feels-fake

Follow up thought:
Maybe it isn't correct to call it a #multicrisis or #polycrisis but is it, following #Malm in Overshoot, more an #antirevolution (a preemptive counterrevolution) or even a poly-antirevolution.
The difference being in the accidental nature vs the concerted effort (even though it may be diffuse and not centrally organised).
It's a converging of the #capitalist class interests on all fronts to protect their hegemony and go even further and attack all ground they lost since World War 2.

I've been off beef for this reason for quite awhile, wish everyone else was too. Even eating more sustainably raised beef helps promote the culture of eating beef more generally. Cows are for milking (on small, family dairy farms). #ClimateCrisis #MultiCrisis

What drought in the Amazon means for the planet

A drought exacerbated by climate change, deforestation and El Niño has brought the Amazon River to the lowest level in over a century.
