A really beautiful reflection by @GeorgeMonbiot that describes so perfectly so many of my feelings while kayaking, walking, and generally just trying to bask in the enormous joys available to us in life and the immense frustrations of the world. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

The use of artificial light at night has expanded and intensified over past decades, severely disrupting nocturnal ecosystems and posing risks to human health and safety. Our new Issues Brief explains how to reduce light #pollution. bit.ly/49mTr1k #DarkSkyWeek

Learning about the holocaust, visiting the Anne Frank house, seeing footage from WW2, I've wondered 'how did people let this happen'? How is it possible for humans to carry this much hate? What human could see this destruction of life as a success? #CeasefireNOW #EndApartheid

Shocking footage shows unimaginable destruction in📍#Gaza city, including our health centre. 70% of civilian infrastructure- including homes, hospitals & schools- have been destroyed or severely damaged. 84% of health facilities have been affected by attacks. Nowhere is safe.

🪶This was in 2021, during the uprising of hope and unity. 🚨It's 2024, & if you're tired of hearing about Palestine, ask yourself why you're not screaming with the Palestinians. tap into your wholehearted solidarity. Recognize the urgency. find your strength. please.
If you’re tired of hearing about Palestine, we’re tired of living it.

The Margiris, called the 'Death Star of the Oceans', drags nets 6 football pitches long, hoovering up vast quantities of marine wildlife and leaving empty seas in its wake. Now it's working the coast off southwest Ireland with 6 other supertrawlers. It's criminal ecocide.
The #supertrawler fleet has been massing to the south west of Ireland over the last week, including the notorious Margiris at 143 metres. There are currently seven vessels in the area with four more supertrawlers moving west through the channel potentially on course to join them. #bycatch #industrialfishing

Attacking civilian targets is a war crime. No ifs, no buts. The problem is the West gave Israel carte blanche to do this on an industrial scale in Gaza - so how could it possibly be taken seriously if it condemns Russia? It has no moral authority of any kind.
Ukraine is experiencing an intense missile and UAV attack since last night, carried out by Russians. Dozens of missile impacts reported in Kyiv, Odesa, Kharkiv, Lviv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia… This is the most massive attack in months and it is not stopping. All night there were explosions across the country. High-rise building hit in Odesa, a shopping center burns in Dnipro, a hospital was damaged in Kharkiv.

I don't give a fuck if you're Jewish. I don't care what religion you are. If you're murdering thousands of children, the *very least* significant thing about that situation is what religion you happen to be. I think the overwhelming majority of people on my side see it this way.

Thank you to everyone who supported UNICEF Ireland's Gaza appeal. This is what your generous donations have helped deliver for children, and their families, in Gaza. Thank you for your amazing and continued support.

With concerted efforts by government to avoid protecting what are clearly rich habitats, petition needs every possible signature. The 30% must be the right 30%. Not just what’s expendable after industrialisation. Fair Seas assessment based on available data ⬇️More data needed.
Sign Our Petition 🙌🌊 It's time the Irish Government took the ocean seriously. Further delays in Marine Protected Area legislation will have detrimental effects on the ocean. Add your name to call for strong MPA legislation 🌍only.one/act/30x30-ireland #FairSeas #30x30Ireland
