Earthβs energy imbalance has more than DOUBLED in 20 years.
Earthβs boiling on the stove.
The lidβs on the pan.
And βleadersβ are still cranking the heat higher & higher & higher with $7,000,000,000,000 in yearly fossil fuel subsidies.
Without fungi we will all die.
Yet 90% of fungi biodiversity hotspots are unprotected & threatened with destruction.
Once again we see there are no sane arguments for continuing with this system that can only be sustained by killing everything on the planet, including us.

1954: the fossil fuel industry knows itβs obliterating our futures.
1970 onward: the industry makes $3,000,000,000 in profits EVERY DAY.
2022: world governments gift the same industry $7,000,000,000,000 in subsidies.
The people you think are in charge are not really in charge.

If Earthβs age was compressed into a single year, modern humans do not arrive until approximately 11:36 pm on December 31st. Only a terrorist could do so much damage in such little time.

We reached an #unique point. We are the first generation to torture most animals that are alive for their entire lives. 90 billion individuals cannot move, fly, see daylight and live & sleep in their own excrements. Peak pain and peak fear in the history of life on Earth.

The more we discover, the worse it gets. Now we learn the water companies wrote the guidance ensuring sewage sludge is not tested for the vast majority of contaminants before being spread on farmland. They gave themselves a free licence to dump hazardous waste. π§΅

There were many farcical moments in Monday's @wildjustice.bsky.social debate on driven grouse shooting , but this tops them all .
