The irony of humans preaching about the sanctity of life while engaging in wars, capital punishment, and reality TV is just too much.

"We" aren't failing at controlling climate change. That's because "we"- the actual people- have little power to make the decisions necessary to fix things.

Instead, this is being done to us.

The small group of sociopathic billionaires driving the destruction would like nothing more than for us to blame ourselves for what they are actively doing to us, absolving them of blame.

So stop saying "we" are failing. We're not. We're fine.

This reflects my feelings.
“Titan and Adriana are two vessels recently lost at sea, four days and 4,000 miles apart. The five men who lost their lives on the Titan have been getting wall-to-wall coverage in the media worldwide. Meanwhile, the estimated 700 who died when the Adriana sank off the coast of Greece, mostly women and children, have been essentially forgotten.”

A Titanic Disparity in How the World Responds to Maritime Disasters

By Amy Goodman & Denis Moynihan All travelers, whether migrants or millionaires, deserve rescue. The global response to the Titan’s disappearance should be the model for how we respond to migrant vessels in distress.

“The clean energy subsidies that undergird President Joe Biden’s climate agenda have just prompted one Norwegian manufacturer to choose Michigan, not Europe, as the site of a nearly $500M factory that will produce the equipment needed to extract hydrogen from water.”
😀 Biden is smashing it.

Biden’s hydrogen bombshell leaves Europe in the dust

The EU is investing billions into becoming a green energy superpower. But Washington’s Inflation Reduction Act means it’s the U.S. reaping the rewards.

I don’t like to mention that rich guy over at #Twitter, but he’s rambling on about #ClimateChange & agriculture, which is in my wheelhouse. And he is also unabashedly & absurdly wrong.

Misinformation on climate change is irresponsible & dangerous, so let’s be clear:

25% to 30% of global emissions come from our #food system.

As UT Austin’s Michael Webber describes, agriculture is a major cause, victim and - importantly - meaningful solution to #climate change.

How much of global greenhouse gas emissions come from food?

Estimates of food emissions can range from one-quarter to one-third. Where do these differences come from?

2008 v. 2023: I don’t think people realize the extent to which parked cars degrade public space.
The irony of the right-wing shouting about 'free speech' while simultaneously demanding censorship of any ideas that challenge their fragile beliefs is truly a masterpiece of hypocrisy.

NY: White Vet kills mentally ill Black man—GOP makes killer a hero😳

WI: White shooter kills 2 people at BLM rally—GOP makes killer a hero😳

TX: White Vet kills BLM marcher—GOP makes killer a hero😳

DC: Black cop kills white insurrectionist—GOP makes insurrectionist a hero🤔

This is what white supremacy looks like

If you can't handle someone else's gender identity, maybe you need to work on your own insecurities.
