UK close to giving Israel's Elbit £2bn contract to train British soldiers Elbit, which was the primary target of Palestine Action's activism, is close to winning a contract that would allow it to train 60,000 troops per year, according to Private Eye

Elbit, the Israeli company that was Palestine Action's primary target, is close to winning a £2bn MoD contract to train British soldiers. The idea that as genocide continues it's "business as usual" is why thousands plan to shut down the DSEi arms fair on 9 Sept www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-clos...

@exeterassembly.bsky.social is starting community run cool hubs popping up in city centre during heatwaves. This initiative came out of a need identified at one of our community assemblies

As we continue to mobilise for mitigation it feels empowering to start building networks of community care now

We were at Exeter Central Station today to support the local community during the latest spell of extreme heat. This project was suggested at one of our recent assemblies, and is run by volunteers. We'll be back tomorrow - come and say hi if you are passing by! #heatwave #community #Exeter

Low-income and minority ethnic people in England most at risk from dangerously hot homes Exclusive: Homes are heating up as summers get hotter but least well-off are shouldering greatest risk, study finds

The climate crisis is about people, not just polar bears. Time for governments and companies to tackle global heating ⏱️

That means a lot, thank you!

World's top court paves way for climate reparations The world's highest court Wednesday declared that states are obliged under international law to tackle climate change and warned that failing to do so could open the door to reparations.

"The ICJ pointing the direction for the entire world and making clear that every nation is legally obliged to solve the climate crisis," says PIK director Johan Rockström in @rfi.fr. 1.5°C would now be recognised in international law as planetary limit.

In September, the UK government will welcome Rafael and other Israeli weapons companies to London to sell weapons like this drone.

Israel uses murder as marketing.

🌍 BREAKING: The UN #HRC just passed a #Climate & #HumanRights resolution, but without naming #FossilFuels.

Had fun contributing to this session at the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points Conference. Social movements have a rich history of leveraging connections and bulding critical mass for systems change. There's no time like the present! @earthminutes.bsky.social @outrageoptimism.bsky.social

I'm starting a thread to keep track of what media coverage this "urgent message to world leaders" from #climate scientists receives.

If you see anything, please add it to this thread 🧵

@thecccuk.bsky.social latest progress report highlights we are halfway to net zero, we're nearing a positive tipping point in EV diffusion, but heat pump installation represents one of the greatest threats to meeting the 2030 carbon budget. Triggering a heat pump sectoral tipping point is critical🔥

Appreciate the opportunity to write my first article with @uk.theconversation.com during the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points Conference which reinforced the need to rapidly respond to climate tipping by leveraging positive tipping in our social, technical and environmental systems

A real authoritarian trifecta on MSNBC right now:

1. Police attacking peaceful protestors (repression of dissent)
2. A tyrant's military parade (propaganda)
3. A wanted ad for the murderer of a democratic politician (political violence)

America, we are under attack from within. #NoKings

“The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings
