"A final thought: is it time to focus more on taking action on what we already know rather than simply calling for better data?"

I'm glad I don't need anything from farmers and them not being able to buy fertiliser affects nobody but themselves.

strange these op-eds about women being too angry have all come out the last few days when during the same time there's also been a massive investigation published on an online rape academy with millions of viewers a month and none of them have bothered to even cover it, even as news

A donor is doubling the next 100 for my friend, student Seraj ‼️ I’m still drawing birds—live, right here—as his kid sister fights for her life after a bullet wound to the head. This fund supports the family’s rent & emergency costs (like Seraj’s own healthcare).

I'm from the UK where the government is sending material aid to Ukraine. It is also sending material aid to Israel who are engaged in a genocide against the Palestinian people. HTH

Whenever people post like this you can guarantee that hours later they'll still be arguing while ignoring the people who've posted the evidence they asked for.

A few years ago people were asking for a WW2-level response to the actual existential threat of climate change and were told that is immature baby talk.

Galling to see a bunch of arms lobbyists asking for the same thing being treated as the grown ups facing up to the real world.

I see @nilspratley.bsky.social is still peddling nonsense!

I hope @katharineviner.bsky.social examines this given the
@theguardian.com's #Climate pledge

Its incoherent for their finance editorials to take this line, it undermines the excellent climate reporting by @dpcarrington.bsky.social & team

Caroline Lucas explains why more drilling in the North Sea wouldn't bring our energy prices down & it would take years to come on line, but what will bring prices down is more renewables & energy efficiency, its quicker to achieve and it doesn't drive climate change #GMB
