Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the ADL: “Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity. People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable source of information now. You work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear to all.”

[#]Wales failing to tackle alarming decline in #nature, report finds”

To achieve targets you really need collaboration, resources & funding to succeed.

Governments are fixated with austerity & Economic Growth for billionaires.

Getting to grips with corporate power, polluters pay, carbon tax & wealth redistribution, & the delivery of a #wellbeingeconomy is #ClimateAction & nature's restoration!

once there were butterflies:

Welsh universities might have promised to divest from fossil fuels, but even with the WFGAct not quite in the @peopleandplanet.bsky.social top ten universities for sustainability credentials.

All credit to CardiffMet though with a 12th and a four Welsh Universities with 1st class results! 💚

☝️ Eco-distress is not a disease, care & compassion for the environment & each other is very rational.

The #Climate & #nature emergencies threaten the very life on Earth that we've loved.

This creates a deep distress globally that can not be dismissed - as irrational when it's impacts are wrecking all future life.

We must respond by supporting people to act with their full potential, amidst systemic - established systems wide failures.

Economic Growth is the enemy of life, that humanity loved. Let go of Economic Growth for the few it's ending our life to love.

2/2. My Christmas is nature's magic not a sales chance to further consume it.

Alt Text

"A frozen childhood riparian space. A traditional Christmas family walk of see, breathe, listen and feel. Where tree's reflections felt larger than life, where we walked amongst winter's laid bare, to cold natural grace. Cold pebbles, ice, haw frosts crisp, scrunch or crack beneath foot, and visible breaths."

1/2. I don't necessarily want to spend #Christmas alone but a childhood's privileged Christmas is hard to mimic; newer traditions become unattainable too.

To be at others with an expectation of 'tis the season to be jolly' doesn't always come naturally, especially when spent with others who trigger.

An absence of family can well my eyes, to Victorian supress, to then pain my throat.

I just signed up to support the Local Electricity Bill - will you please do the same? If made law, the Bill would empower #CommunityEnergy groups to start up and sell their clean electricity directly to local people.

"Anyone who actually is part of a “post-growth coalition” that no longer pursues economic growth will need to have a compelling message & a sufficiently strong base of political support to push back against inevitable attacks from powerful opponents for being “anti-growth.”

2/2. If only we'd co-ordinated public, meaningful buy in, into a Wellbeing Economy - would that informed public been so duped by billionaires self serving future busting lies?

Come on, lets do a bit more policy influencing that has no emotional resonance, or meaningful reach, or positive impact for the public at large.

Humankind - we have always needed to deal with man's greed, ego and power, corruption and lies, the addiction - not let it govern.

1/2. I am sick of two party politics not meaningfully and inclusively working for our communities, nature and a once extremely life sustaining planet, and yes now - our desperate future generations.
