Spain’s marine protected areas (MPAs) are still being decimated by bottom trawling.

We took legal action last year but Spain has issued more fishing licenses for bottom trawling inside these MPAs since then.

So we’re going back to court with @oceanaeurope.bsky.social to protect these zones.

The Rainbow Warrior joined the flotilla calling on leaders at #COP30 to respect the Amazon, defend Indigenous lands and rights, end fossil fuels and make polluters pay. COP30 must be a COP of action for forests, for climate and for people.

More than 200 boats and 5,000 people sailed through Belém in a powerful Flotilla of Hope.

Indigenous leaders like Marcos Xukuru (Brazil) and Rukka Sombolinggi (Indonesia) reminded the world that real climate solutions are rooted in ancestral knowledge.

The Met Police confirmed on Sunday that 532 arrests were made, 522 for displaying an item in support of a proscribed organisation at the Palestine Action march in central London.

Amnesty said the arrests were "disproportionate to the point of absurdity."

The proposed EV road-user charge is unfair & not what the Productivity Commission recommended. Any road-user charge should be part of a national, equitable reform that applies to all vehicles. It should replace the outdated fuel excise & reflect the true cost and emissions impact of transport.

In swap from fossil fuels to PV/ EVs/ clean tech, global total materials demand falls!

Big % change off tiny base on resources less used before

But much bigger falls in stuff we won't need

Compare 8b ton coal, 550m ton oil (± to scale)

+ clean tech resources in waste stream valuable!
