Had an amazing time at Eden Festival, a new fave! We rode many buses. Nearly got struck by lightening. Camped too near the dance tent and now my tinnitus has tinnitus. 5 stars would recommend to a friend. #climatecomedy #climatecrisiscabaret #lesbianclimateangst #welovescotland #fossilheads

Our opening show is getting closer! And I'm going to have arrived back in the UK at Victoria coach station at 4.30am that SAME DAY because screw future me, that's why #fossilheads #climatecrisiscabaret #fossilheadsclimatecrisiscabaret #climatecomedy #lesbianclimateangst #climatecrisis #artactivism

a screen shot of a fb post by FOSSILHEADS that reads: BP have been having a bit of money trouble lately so why don’t we cheer them up by letting them know we haven’t forgotten it’s their 15th anniversary! of causing the biggest oil spill in recorded history! Even though it was 15 years ago today that over 134 million gallons of oil began disgorging directly into the ocean from Deepwater Horizon over 87 days, a report in 2024 found severe biodiversity damage across an ocean area nearly 9 times larger than previously reported. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, BP!" followed by a picture of the disaster doctored to represent an anniversary card, with cartoon sea creatures holding balloons etc

A Guardian headline that reads "Deadly floods and storms affected more that 400,000 people in Europe in 2024" with a shocking photograph of flood damage where cars are piled up on top of each other in the street and someone is walking through flood water and a speech bubble has been crudely added to read "OK but net zero will desecrate the landscape"

A headline that reads "revealed: Meat industry behind attacks on flagship climate-friendly diet report" followed by a variation of the hotel "wake up call" meme, a woman is in a hotel room phoning reception saying "oh hi I'd like to order a wake-up call please?" and the recptionist is answering "Certainly madam. A world-renowned peer-reviewed medical journal made a robust case for halving the world’s global red meat consumption in order to feed everyone while limiting environmental breakdown. The furious online backlash, slew of misinformation and personal harassment toward the 37 authors can be traced back to a singular PR company known to represent the meat and dairy industries, who framed it as an attack on the working class - just one of many examples of our supposed “culture wars” being little more than a contrivance of rapacious big-firm capitalism."
a headline that reads "wealthy nations owe Africa trillions in climate debt, report finds" accompanied by a still from a scene in the Simpsons where an official is holding some evidence saying "let's pretend we didn't see that" (shortly before swallowing it).

text that reads "all the billionaire entrepreneurs who have at some point announced they are devoted to fixing the climate crisis, only to realise that, rather than it involving some cool tech bro gadget they can take the credit for inventing, it actually requires redistributing wealth and restructuring the toxic economic system that got them so rich in the first place:" and then there is a picture from 30 rock of a man in a desk in a suit looking bored with the subtitles displayed that say "This is boring. I'm bored now"
