#ClimateEmergency is the urgent issue we must act on. For our upcoming tour, we’ll be taking every feasible route by rail. If you’re coming to our Bristol Downs // 25.08. show & travelling from outside Bristol, we’d like to invite you into an experiment: trainhugger.com/partners/massi…

This was a major test of the Labour govt's credibility on the climate. A test just failed. The political class will not save us from record breaking heatwaves, sea temperatures that break right out of the graph & collapsing biodiversity. It's up to us. bylinetimes.com/2024/08/19/gov…

Despite rejecting Saturday afternoon flights, London City Airport's expansion has been approved. Let's be clear: expanding airports in a climate crisis is a crime. Governments who allow it are complicit in climate devastation. businessgreen.com/news/4348477/l…

Disgraceful that school librarians are being pressured to remove LGBT books, denying many young people the opportunity to see themselves reflected in literature and others the opportunity to encounter diverse perspectives. theguardian.com/books/article/…

Last year the Climate Change Committee recommended that all airport expansions be halted until the UK had a capacity management strategy that complied with its statutory climate targets. It seems the new Labour Government has as little respect for experts as the Tories did.

Some argue that the need for libraries is diminishing in a digital age, but according to this BBC article "library visits increased by 71% between 2021-22 and 2022-23". In an age of austerity, we need libraries as much as we ever did. #SaveLibraries bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

If you use a Nottingham library, especially if you use one of the libraries under threat of closure, we encourage you to please respond to this survey from The Guardian asking how libraries shape your life. Reply here too if you'd like to share with us 💚📚💜 theguardian.com/books/article/…

THIS. I'm so so sad our local library and a few others are probably closing. I wrote the longest 2 page petition on how much it has meant to me these past few years and that was just scratching the surface. I don't know what I would have done without my weekly library visit.
