Why is chocolate expensive? "Extreme weather caused by climate change has hit cocoa farmers' crop yields in Africa"

The climate crisis is real, it's here, it's affecting you, and this is just the beginning.

Why your chocolate is getting smaller, more expensive and less chocolatey
Christmas treats are getting eaten away by 'shrinkflation' and the Grinch even has an eye on the cocoa content.

Scotland's future can be that of a fairer, greener and independent country, where polluters, greedy landlords, and big corporations pay their fair share.

Like Brexit, but even more racist.

It’s never been clearer that Scotland must chose its own way. We NEED foreign workers

"The future of our country under a Tory government" is the present we're now living in.
For the benefit of future historians wondering how the Labour Party died; the answer is this quote.

"I've never worried about the future of our country under a Tory government"
Keir Starmer - "I’ve always wanted a Labour government but I’ve never worried about the future of our country under a Tory government."

The words of a man so insulated from the harm done by the Tories he felt no compulsion not to continue the harm not being done to him and his.

Ridiculous false "balance" from BBC. There's a difference between holding right wing views on immigration and showing up at actual migrants' homes to tell them they shouldn't be there. If you're doing that you're XRW or standing next to them and you should be ashamed.

🪽 Our swift population is in sharp decline. They've fallen by two thirds since 1995 and were added to the UK's conservation red list in 2020.

📨 But we have a simple, low-cost solution. Tell the government that now is the time to act to save our swifts.

Companies profiting form war crimes and genocide should not be profiting here in Scotland.

This year the Scottish Parliament voted to support Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel.

Now we need clarity about how the government is implementing it.
EXCLUSIVE: The Scottish Government has been accused of an 'alarming lack of clarity' over the action it has taken to implement a boycott of Israel

This is such a small thing to ask, and would have such a big impact on an iconic and vital species.
Swifts are incredible birds that migrate from Africa every year, but they are in serious decline and a major reason is because their nesting sites on buildings are under threat.

Tell the government that now is the time to act.

The Mossmorran closure is once again a betrayal of the principles of a just transition - we should have had a plan in place years ago, something @markruskell.bsky.social and the @scottishgreens.org have been calling for for nearly a decade. Another community left behind whilst big oil moves on 🔥

- Get rid of legal routes to seek asylum "asylum seekers are illegal"
- Ban them from working "they live on handouts"
- Change the rules on acceptable claims "they're bogus"
- Scrap family unification "where are the women and children?"
- End routes to settled status "why won't they integrate?"

🚨 BREAKING

The SNP have just blocked our motion, confirming they no longer oppose the Rosebank oil field application.

If Rosebank goes ahead it'll be a grave act of environmental vandalism. This is a huge step backwards for Scotland's climate action.
Today the Scottish Parliament will vote on our motion opposing Rosebank.

The oil field would release a massive 250 million tonnes of new carbon emissions into our atmosphere, 50 times as much as previously admitted!

We must put people and planet first, not corporate profits.
