I just spoke to my new nemesis CEO of and its majority shareholder, the Norwegian government, at their AGM.

Brilliant stunt at #TheBigOne - a glimpse of the kind of politician we are all waiting for (and wonderful use of a row of men in suits: extras in a sci fi movie). #ExtinctionRebellion.

Just to be super clear, especially for anyone outside the UK: this is not real. It's a stunt, a vision of a possible future (in which not everything has changed...) that helps us weep more furiously about the inertia of the present, and find the guts to move beyond it.

These are real scientists protesting. There's almost no one in the media speaking up passionately about this - apart from those you'd expect - so I cant see how we have any hope of saving ourselves. Most people are choosing the collapse pathway through apathy. It is what it is.

In the last few decades, the SUV market in America has exploded.
Automakers say the reason for this growth has been "changing consumer preferences."
But that's not the full story.
One of the main reasons for the growth is the "SUV loophole."

If I should name the best thing about #doughnuteconomics it's definitely the people who show up - the designers, teachers, students, mayors, councillors, entrepreneurs, commoners, activists - and bring their wild and generous creativity. That's you, Mona, and so many more ; )

The Energy Charter Treaty is the dirtiest deal you've never heard of. It lets fossil fuel giants sue Govts for taking climate action that threatens their obscene profits. Ministers must withdraw from this climate-wrecking treaty *now*.

While France is banning short-haul flights, the UK government is now promoting them, under the slogan 'Grow the Economy'
More like 'Kill the Living World'.
Policies like this, in times like these, will be recorded in the history books as ecocide.

From tomorrow, tax will be slashed on flights within the UK, a move that will help boost UK-wide connectivity.
