I just donated to the Footprint Project, sending solar/battery/LED setups to Jamaica. Usually in the wake of a disaster you get noisy, polluting diesel generators that also need fuel. These microgrid setups will be useful and provide clean energy for years. www.footprintproject.org/rapid-disast...

🚨 The news-media is utterly failing to cover these momentous scientific findings.
The public is not being informed of the danger posed.

Whatever Starmer does, he’s already cast disabled people as the reason why they “can’t balance the books”.
The Labour Government has already scapegoated disabled people as the reason why your life sucks.
It’s unforgivable.
