It would be helpful to see a plot with PM2.5 over time with suicide number. Using AQI can hide some important details as it’s a catch all; and raw suicide numbers (compared to an expected number for a given population size) can help to understand the significance better.
Graph showing suicide spikes on the day of air pollution
It seems to be a temporal trend, ie when pollution spikes then so do suicides.
Increased exposure to air pollution, such as particulates from fossil fuel combustion, correlates with increased rates of suicide.

Which device are you using?
A huge betrayal.
Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks.
And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling.

Ever wonder why most of the media provide wall-to-wall coverage of everything the far right does or says, while ignoring far bigger rallies and events and far more interesting discussions elsewhere on the political spectrum?
There's no mystery. It's because they want the far right to triumph.
On BBC 6Music News they have instead opted to platform Reform’s pro oil and gas without any mention of climate.
I can’t imagine how DJs like Guy Garvey can keep announcing the news on their shows without dying a little bit inside every time.

Interesting headline, but I won’t click on Google links. Can you provide the direct link to the sticker please?
How can the BBC justify how much coverage they give other marches which are significantly smaller in size?
The bias is so obviously blatant.

Saw this at the Birkbeck Climate Festival last week - it’s very good.

Anyone in Manchester want to see my film about how ppl in southern Europe are responding to wildfires?
It’s an inspirational film about collective action

Flights are the biggest slice of many people's carbon footprint often bigger than diet, home energy, car combined. Switch modes, make a massive dent. Flight Free UK inspires that shift. Donate to grow the movement

Trans girls need support in our society.
Yet, @girlguidingcymru.bsky.social @girlguidingscot.bsky.social and others are telling their trans girls they must leave the organisation by September.
This is another step towards fascism.

An oil shock just forces a simple choice:
Subsidise fuel
or
Subsidise getting off fuel
Most governments pick the first
That’s a mistake!
A quick 🧵
This is an extremely important part of the story of food systems, environmental pollution, and human exploitation.
Neal is a master photographer and his investigation is both beautiful and horrifying.
Tracing a tomato or salmon fillet is harder than it should be.
Supply chains cross borders & intermediaries and corporations rely on their obscurity.
How do we shine light on hidden systems?
