The milky way contains over 100 billion planets yet and there is only one planet like ours and the richest 10% of people on it are destroying it. Consumption and capitalism do not matter in the grand scheme of things, sometimes people need a bigger perspective to see that.

Your periodic reminder that charity will never solve what public policy was meant to address. The generosity of strangers is not a substitute for good public policy.

📣 BREAKING: New report shows that governments' climate plans are still not strong enough to limit warming to 1.5°C.
They're on track to warm our planet by 2.5°C, which would be catastrophic for people and nature. 🚨

Mask wearing is literally the same type of thing as refrigerators, sunscreen, bug spray, spaying your pets, cancer screening, seatbelts.
NONE of those things work perfectly all the time. But ALL of them help reduce harms some of the time.
Harm reduction is the goal.

I’ve had period pain so severe it makes me pass out + throw up since I was 16. EVERYONE told me this was normal. At 33 I’ve found out it’s not normal, it’s probably endometriosis.
The absolute state of menstrual education in this country, we know shit all about our own bodies.

can't stop thinking about that listener bias study that found that men do not perceive themselves as dominating a conversation (even if they are) but they also start perceiving women as dominating a conversation the second they say...literally anything

The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility.
Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it.

I just learned that if a hermit crab finds a new shell that is too big it will wait for other hermit crabs who need new shells to gather and then they will organize themselves by size and trade shells and I am pissed that the crabs have a better housing market than we do

At Auschwitz we see the end of the process. It's important to note that the Holocaust did not start from gas chambers & murder.
The hatred developed from marking a victim who could not escape its fate, from words of prejudice, through legal exclusion, violence & dehumanization.

Linear infrastructure intrusions are a threat inside our wildlife reserves and in the surrounding landscapes. When engineers and planners remain ecologically illiterate or uncaring, this sort of thing is what happens. Daily. To hundreds of animal species. Not just #elephants.
