An open letter to #RealisationFestival

The Earl of Shaftesbury must return Lough Neagh.

When will he stop the sand dredging and transfer ownership?

He must publish the contracts & support a Citizens Assembly.

No more greenwash!

🔥🌍 The biggest barrier to climate solutions isn’t just denial, it’s propaganda that shapes what we believe is possible.

Fossil fuel narratives define what counts as ‘practical’ and subtly limit our imagination. 🎧 Listen, share, and help reshape the conversation. 🔄
I interviewed @doctorvive.bsky.social about fossil fuel propaganda and the language of climate politics. Genevieve discovered ways of talking about climate that are immune to being hijacked by fossil fuel interests!

Trump admits US oil execs were informed of the US attack on #Venezuela - called “brazenly illegal” by experts - prior to the coup. Meanwhile, his administration has justified not consulting US lawmakers beforehand due to concerns a leak would compromise operational security🙄

Appalling illegal act by Trump to seize Venezuela’s oil. Rajan Menon, Prof of International Relations, outlines Trump's fictitious justifications, including false allegations #Venezuela “stole” oil & land belonging to US. The truth is the US has no legal claim to Venezuelan oil & Trump is a gangster

“2025 - so many beautiful moments full of protest!

So many beautiful moments and encounters that it does not fit in a post at all. Also this year we have experienced that the climate crisis is escalating and it’s more and more too late and corporations and superiors benefit from it and celebrate!”
2025 - so viele schöne Momente voller Protest!

So viele schöne Momente und Begegnungen, dass es gar nicht in einen Post passt. Auch dieses Jahr haben wir wieder erlebt, das die Klimakrise eskaliert und immer mehr zu spät ist und Konzerne und überreiche davon profitieren und feiern!

“Hurrah for the Blackshirts”

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it
Never forget.

If the Daily Mail does call for a Reform UK vote at the next election, it will mark the first time that newspaper hasn't backed the Tories since this horrific crime.

This moment matters and YOU can be part of changing the story.

The climate and nature crises aren’t distant problems but existential threats to our health, food, communities and future generations.

UK Government pushing to classify animal testing sites as “key national infrastructure” - to stop lawful, peaceful protest against the torture of animals
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

What do *you* think this makes our Government???
🐶 The verdict is in, but the fight is not over.

Yesterday, five people were found guilty of "burglary" for rescuing beagle puppies from MBR Acres. At the same time, the government is pushing to classify animal testing sites as “key national infrastructure” giving police more powers and imposing 1/4

Funeral march in Berlin, around 10 lost years after the Paris Agreement and exceeding the tipping point that will lead to the irreversible loss of the coral reefs.
Trauermarsch in Berlin, um 10 verlorene Jahre nach dem Pariser Abkommen und dem Überschreiten des Kipppunktes der zum Irreversiblen Verlust der Korallen führen wird.

#ZeroTax

(that’s not much !)

But Rosebank’s owner made $30 billion.

#StopRosebank

#StopProfitForTheFew
SHOCKING 🚨: Rosebank's majority owner, Equinor, made almost $30 billion last year - and paid zero tax to the UK.

This is exactly how the fossil fuel industry works. Communities and the climate are treated as expendable, while profit is protected at all costs.
