If the movement we need in an era of climate calamity is an “everything movement” that leads to real democracy, that means it’s a movement for self-rule. We can get there if we help people rehearse the skills they need, to inhabit the story. clarejfarrell.substack.com/p…
People are fed up with privatised water companies letting us down and ripping us off. We deserve a real conversation about public ownership. Can you ask your MP to attend this crucial debate on water ownership? It's sponsored by my friend @labourlewis actionnetwork.org/letters/as…

Clare Farrell, co-founder of Extinction Rebellion, joins the Climate Emergency Forum to discuss climate breakdown, extreme heat, political inaction, and the urgent need for collective action. Watch now. #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion youtu.be/uc-HHnq8IhQ
It's okay under extreme risk to shit yourself. I think a lot of fear drives the binary thinking we've been stuck in. And it's difficult to move from binary to systems thinking on climate, but I think we have to, before it's too late. Please read & share x clarejfarrell.substack.com/p…

Honestly, this is an outrage. Enough is enough. These evil lying bastards at the @DailyMailUK @dailymail are endangering all of us.
This is a lie.
2026 is the hottest summer on record, beating last years record.
Extreme wildfires have more than doubled globally, according to NASA.
Wildfires have exploded across the Earth.
The USA, Spain and France have seen record wildfires.
The Mail never ever lead with the science of climate change.
Labour deserves everything it gets because the govt itself does not understand climate change and refuses to have a National Televised Emergency Briefing @nebriefing to tell the public what we are facing.

The Daily Mail is lying to you, desperate to remain relevant (and so powerful / profitable) while the evidence of climate breakdown stares us in the eyes. They're blinded by ideology. Time for a cigarette-style health warning on these "newspapers" absurdintelligence.com/if-i-…

The 5th heatwave has arrived.
Temperatures will likely peak on Thursday across the UK around 36-38°C but it’ll be a hot week across England, Wales and much of France.
This summer has broken virtually every record there is to break.
Last week, when I was feeling so angry with the media liberals that I was almost on fire, I came up with the idea of an ‘Information Health Warning’ to put on newspapers and displayed before news programmes, a bit like you have on packets of cigarettes.

An independent, free press is vital if we're to confront the climate, nature, poverty and democracy crises!

The Telegraph on climate: a brief history.
1. Climate change doesn’t exist
2. It might exist but isn’t man made
3. It might be, but it’s woke to say so
4. It’s real, and now too late, so everyone should love it.
No mention of the cost of it, or insurance implications. Thick.
How should we decide our future during extreme heat? Can we find a way to govern tipping points, geoengineering or any other technology, when it's blatantly obvious that capitalism can’t?
I don't know, but I do believe we need to talk about it. Pls share!

'My job is to demonstrate that British democracy is wonderful and unique in the entire Cosmos'
Count Binface told #BBCBreakfast why he plans to stand against Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election - triggered by the resignation of the Reform UK leader who then plans to re-fight the seat, which he argued would vindicate him following questions over his financial arrangements

In this week of extreme heat, is it safe to talk about geo-engineering? That's what I'll be doing tomorrow at the Conduit, watching the new film Plan C for Civilisation, but it's also what we spoke about when I met the climatologist James Hansen: clarejfarrell.substack.com/p…
Being 'out there' is the best - and most human - thing we can do when things are falling apart around us. @outtherearts really know how to do this and bring us together where it matters, on our streets. A post by my friend @frucool have a read it's great! absurdintelligence.com/out-t…

Famous leftist hippies J P Morgan (!) warned in a report 6 years ago that the damage to the environment is so bad it may mean the end of the human race.
"Although precise predictions are not possible, it is clear that the earth is on an unsustainable trajectory.
Something will have to change at some point if the human race is going to survive."
Move over Donny and Nigel, there's a new show in town.

"We need to address the causes of the causes." My conversation with Reverend Stephen G Wright was so helpful in the thinking I'm doing about how to shift frames on the climate: from carbon to systems. Please have a read and if you like it, share. Thanks! x

It’s 16C today in London.
Last night was the hottest bonfire night on record.
It comes on the back of the hottest U.K. summer on record and 2024 being the hottest year globally on record.
Please consider the stress young people are feeling that this is not being reported properly as they express in the video below.
