On top of all the unimaginable human suffering… I just fear that, with all the green house gases already locked into our atmosphere, plus all new tonnes via senseless wars, the planet will not survive either. This is a tragedy for nature/humanity no matter the prism you select for analysis.

Decisions made by β€œstrong man” politicians is not helping. We all need more love and respect: for each other and for Mother Earth no matter our geographical location: 🌏 🌎 🌍 together we have a chance… cut from each other and from nature we will all fall.

OKAY BIG ONE FOR YA

NEW report out today: I dig deep into how big tech has been muddling tech types and overstating evidence to claim "AI" will make global emissions drop like a stone....

Not only will it not, it seems to be verifiably doing the opposite!!

I have already made the pact with myself and my family that until Apple does not change we will never again buy any Apple product. When we need a phone next… there are many other brands on offer.

Flawed economic models mean climate crisis could crash global economy, experts warn States and financial bodies using modelling that ignores shocks from extreme weather and climate tipping points

William Nordhaus received the Nobel Memorial Prize for these flawed economic models, and Bjorn Lomborg built a highly lucrative career on them.
They told rich and powerful people what they wanted to hear.
While helping to consign us all to catastrophe.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
