Totally agree.
If you haven't yet watched #DaveBorlace's great #JustHaveaThink show on the UK #NationalEmergencyBriefing #nebriefing, you'll find that it's one of his very best. Have yourself some intriguing few minutes with it, and *please* act on what he says - sign the letter. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sa7...

Please please sign this letter. We need main stream media coverage on this national emergency.
Thank you.
Thank you.
There were over 40 journalists there, including I believe from the BBC. I know of at least one from a major media outlet who filed a report, that was then ignored by the editor, something I find deeply disturbing.
Please sign the open letter calling for a televised briefing.

Shocking. Can remember visiting it in late 1990’s and it was a short walk to the front which was on level ground. I’ll need to dig out the photos.
Dear planet earth. We are v sorry for altering your fragile nature in such a shocking way.

Incredible timelapse showing the retreat of Franz Joseph Glacier (NZ) over only 7 years (2012-2019)! 🧊🔥
The ice flow velocity (up to 2 m/day!) combined with the incredible rate of retreat of the front (900 m over this period!) is simply mind-boggling! 🤪

Needs to move onto a Coalition Of The Willing, No FF representatives- meeting and agree what needs done without them. Move on. They will resist even when it’s 600ppm. Exclude them from all future COPs.
After two weeks of #COP30 negotiations, countries agreed to BEGIN DISCUSSIONS on fossil fuel phase out. And as the article says, "they achieved this incremental progress only in the teeth of implacable opposition from oil-producing countries."
THIS is the problem with requiring unanimous decisions.
