Nailed it.

This week marks Baby Loss Awareness Week, my thoughts are with all of those affected by this cause. Changes must be made to improve bereavement leave and maternity services, including adequate access to scans and better research.

Daughter: “Mother, I think I’m a boy.” Mother: “Phew. I thought you were going to say Republican.”

Speaking tomorrow at New Scientist Live with Profs Behrens & Seddon. The Paris climate challenge is no longer a matter of urgency, but of emergency. Urgency seeks to accelerate change; emergency demands & fundamentally different policy & technology agenda. live.newscientist.com/speakers/kev...

You can see the genocide from space. Yet still it is widely denied.

"I should just point out that we don't have any Lib Dems on the panel as they only have 71 MPs, but Suella Braverman is here because Reform have 8 MPs"

Man who supported Brexit then fucked off to Monaco to avoid contributing a penny of his £15 billion fortune to public services makes the mistake of thinking anyone gives a shit what he thinks.

Britain's future relationship with Europe is being debated in Parliament on 12th October. I've just asked my MP to attend. Will you ask yours? www.europeanmovement.co.uk/contact-mp-a...

Sat at the Housing Community Summit listening to the Chair's opener...some interesting points to start the day off.

100 companies are responsible for 71% of global emissions. They told YOU to recycle better while they polluted more. Don't fall for it. Hold systems accountable. #ClimateCrisis

So this happened....officially Dr Brown now.

Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...

Absolutely 💯 Tax Them…. NEW: Over the World Cup final weekend, ~3,000 private jets flew in and out of the NY area. On the last day, private jet CO2 in the area doubled its 5-year norm(!). Private jets are the most carbon-intensive form of travel. Tax them.

Quick hit video of a dude asking people how much they spent on World Cup finals tix and then their occupation. CEO of KC Chiefs, owner of Welch’s, and an inconspicuous “consultant”. See if you can identify him.

I often use this in interviews...do you prefer a telescope or a microscope?

As this graphic makes clear, gas - which is a very expensive form of generation - sets the market price of electricity in the UK way more than it does in other countries. Want lower electricity bills? Get behind renewables, not drilling for more North Sea gas. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

I bought salad makings at the supermarket today, because it's Britain and, while we have done stupid things with our food supply, (see Brexit) we never put RFK Jr. in charge of its quality control.

I like bee butts and I cannot lie... . . I don't know who took this picture butt it rules.

Before the president gets on television tonight to peddle lies and conspiracy theories, here is what you need to know: The 2020 election was not stolen. We won, and he lost.

If only a dedicated group of scientists had warned us about the record heat, torrential flooding, continental scale wildfires, and apocalyptic orange skies
