This heat. Not sick but not well either. Just overall languishing that makes working, resting, and sleeping uncomfortable. And I say this with the privilege of wfh, what more those who need to be out & about or in homes that are not heat-resilient.

🗳️EP voted on the CAP simplification proposal, rolling back green regulations to 2003

🚩Farmers are no longer required to use 4% of their farmland for biodiversity protection

🌾9M ha of pesticide-free soils will be lost

🌍🔥A major blow for the planet's and farmer's health!

Proposal of European Commission to delete already few #sustainability conditions of #CAP subsidies is wrong.

YMGE EU Parliament must reject it! It goes against

I noticed that the outcry about professors getting arrested seems larger than when students get arrested. That's a double standard. Nobody should be arrested for peaceful protest as long as they're not violating someone else's rights. Independent of their occupation or seniority!

A fisherman from Batangas, a province south of the Philippine capital, flew thousands of miles away from home on his own to personally call on European banks to divest from environmentally destructive fossil fuel projects in his country.

We've apparently reached the 'University arresting its own professors' stage of decline.

Not entirely sure how any university president comes back from having their cops slam tenured faculty to the ground while arresting them

philosophy chair getting arrested, an econ prof getting her head smashed against concrete, a street medic being held down and tased, snipers setting up vantage points to shoot at ohio state students -all because of nationwide protests against a genocide- you SHOULD be radicalized

Really makes you wonder what these universities are so afraid of and it turns out the answer is, on at least one level, education

“Can you call the Philosophy Department and tell them I’ve been arrested?

I’m Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department.”

NEW DATA: The collective fortunes of the Ferrero and Mars families, who own the 2 biggest private #chocolate corporations, surged to $160.9 billion in 2023.

This is more than the combined GDPs of Ghana and Ivory Coast, which supply most #cocoa beans.

#Carbon offsets projects in Australia to regenerate #forests did not improve tree cover nor reduce #emissions as promised. The overall result is an increase in the amount of carbon #pollution , a worse outcome for the #climate than without these projects: theguardian.com/environment/20…
