This is GAME-CHANGING.

And it’s ONLY been possible thanks to YEARS of fighting by THOUSANDS of climate campaigners! Power to the people. ✊

Big Garden Birdwatch Storm Advice 💨

For for your count, check your local forecast for calmer weather. It looks like Sunday will be the best day for most of us.

And above all, stay safe.

Good counting, everyone!

This is part of a clear pattern of more extreme and unpredictable weather

The damage will be paid for by taxpayers or through people's increasing insurance bills – while the polluting companies profiting from driving the climate crisis get away with it

It's time to make polluters pay

🌡️ our health
💷 money that could be used to protect all of the above

Big Oil knew and lied about the dangers of fossil fuels; that fact doesn't change based on who is in the White House.

Courts throughout the country have affirmed the rights of communities to put fossil fuel giants on trial and make them face the evidence of their climate lies.
