@heritage.bsky.social Just read your review of the Gaza documentary. One of those "well done on a great review I wish you never had to write" situations. Thanks for giving the context too. Gonna watch this weekend. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
Gaza: Doctors Under Attack review – this crucial film is the stuff of nightmares. But the world needs to see it
The film the BBC refused to air shows the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza. Its relentless timeline of horrors will never leave you

On BBC News this morning

”Sir Keir Starmer has said he "understands what anchors" US President Donald Trump, having built a relationship on shared family values.”

Absolute banger OCI report out today - rich countries like Norway and Australia could comfortably phase out oil and gas - cutting both enabled overseas emissions and domestic emissions massively - without skipping a beat.

More crackdown on Greenpeace protest in the US.

I will always stand with Greeenpeace! Nothing short of an act of silencing people and peaceful protest
🚨BREAKING: The UK is cracking down on peaceful climate protest while handing £2 MILLION a day in ‘RENEWABLE’ subsidies to energy company Drax - for burning wood pellets that can be more polluting than coal. Everything about this is absurd - and should shock you 🧵👇

Disgusting display of US middle/old age white male bullies, only makes us stand stronger with support for Ukraine.

Rest in Power Prof Burawoy 💔✊

Pretty much everything I teach in Public Sociology involves works of Burawoy. Really shocked to hear his passing and a massive loss to Sociology as a whole, really sad.
“We are shocked and saddened by the news of Professor Michael Burawoy’s passing. His untimely death is a great loss to sociology & to movements for justice around the world.”

Everyone needs to know that these fires were made possible by global heating, which is caused by the fossil fuel industry, which has lied and blocked action for half a century. And that this will all get much, much, much worse until we end the fossil fuel industry
