Ida B. Wells was a powerhouse. She challenged the lie that Black men were being lynched because they assaulted White women. Her research showed they were killed because they were successfully competing with White business owners. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." -Ida B. Wells

Our Energy from Waste solution only ensures that we recycle by burning plastics. This puts particulates into the Enviroment and ensures profits for the manufacturers like #INEOS It’s time we built proper infrastructure that turns plastic waste back into clean plastic, circular not linear recycling.
Corruption in the UK waste sector is bad enough. Exporting plastic overseas where it is not recycled shifts environmental and public health harm onto others.

In this map of greenhouse gas emissions per hectare of peat, the Fens in the UK stand out as an angry red blob.
The Fens are a carbon bomb. To defuse it, we need to pressure its landowners, like the Church Commissioners.

This is scary and if your not already aware of this cascade failure in Antarctica it’s time you did more research into it. The only way to learn is to study for your self and to ask questions of your piers and other learned people. Don’t let others tell you what they believe do the hard work.
1/3 What this article is saying is that 60 metres of sea level rise is effectively inevitable.
Oh no ... actually it says:
"The research shows that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet’s long-term collapse becomes virtually certain under high emissions."
