The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years.
CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years.
But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures.
Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.

George Floyd should be alive today.
He should be raising his daughter, living his life.
5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags.
His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.”
Let’s stop failing her, and him.
Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

beaver's return
![Comic by Stephen Collins for the Guardian. Script as follows:
Scene is a British WOODLAND by a RIVER. A NATURALIST is stood next to a cage, and TV NEWS REPORTERS are filming him and the cage.
1
NATURALIST:
And now It is my great honour
2
NATURALIST:
to reintroduce the first wild beaver
back into Britain
3
[Cut to the BEAVER’S CAGE. Its door is open and the Beaver is leaned nonchalantly up against the opening, smoking a cigarette.]
4
BEAVER:
Well, well, well.
5
BEAVER:
Look who's come crawling back.
6
BEAVER:
Got a rubbish ecosystem have ya?
7
BEAVER:
Not happy with the *critical anti-flood infrastructure* engineered by the flippin *badgers*?
8
BEAVER:
I almost didn't recognise you without one of my ancestors on your head…
9
BEAVER:
First you wipe us out… now you ask us to come back and build dams for free…
You actually expect me to be *pleased* don’t ya?
NATURALIST:
I'm so sorry I…I…
10
BEAVER:
“Ooh la la, the Brits have come crawling back…”
Do I look like *Michel flippin’ Barnier*?
11
NATURALIST:
I-if there’s some kind of… *remuneration* we could offer I-I’m sure…
12
BEAVER [throwing cigarette to the ground]:
Unlimited pond weed, two tickets to Abba Voyage.
NATURALIST:
Done.

"The American antisemitism now merges with the Russian antisemitism and reinforces it. The idea that Zelens'kyi is not a real president, and that his government is therefore not a real government, has been a very specific Russian antisemitic trope from the beginning."

Please listen and share—this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.
