    Potentially two good additions to the team (not least because Brown’s grip on the way money works is streets ahead of Reeves’ understanding), but as a way to address Starmer’s problems it’s a total #MissingThePoint.

  2. @markhburton Do you know the great works and struggle by the late Paco Puche in Spain against asbestos and the asbestos tycoons? He wrote lots of articles and published some must-read books on the problem. For example: catarata.org/libro/amianto_448

  3. @markhburton Good times to re-read "We, the detritivores" detritivoros.com/ (A bunch of versions, in different languages and extensions in that site)

    Many think #banks are #neutral (for it's #speculation? investment into #war? #paying for what #profits most devastating in a short time?) and it isn't #moral actually passing through those hands full of #bad actors (#immoral #investments) and growing what #fucks people best and #sucks most out of them.

  9. @markhburton I feel like we could all talk about #money and #banks more often ?

    Banks are not neutral and money is root of all #evil / pays for it / enables others to take the good money (all money passing through #rich people's hands) and use it for very #unhelpful things in life...

  14. @markhburton ¿En riesgo? ¿Potenciar? Vaya manera de diluir la gravedad del asunto. El titular correcto sería: "La UE no tiene materias primas para las (mal llamadas) energías renovables".

    Great article!

    Andrea #Eagan is an absolute breath of fresh air in the context of the vapid state of UK politics generally and the catastrophic direction that #Labour-in-name-only is taking under the #Starmer/ #McSweeny #dictatorship!

  16. @markhburton #NetZero was always a fraud, intended to protect the #FossilFuel industry by pretending we could efficiently suck carbon out of the air and store it for ever. We can't, that's a perpetual motion device.

    We MUST NOT aim for 'Net Zero', that way lies total destruction of the living planet. We must aim for an actual zero of fossil hydrocarbons: not pumped, not burned, not made into plastics.

  17. @markhburton We all are struggling with this. It would be easy to pin this all on the #IDU, but there seems to be a wider network of racist billionaires at work.

  18. @markhburton there can be no ethical jet fuel. #Biofuels are by definition grown on land fit to grow human food, in a world in which many humans face food shortage or worse. Flying jets on biofuels will cause famine.

    All #CarbonOffsets are knowing and deliberate fraud.

    We just have to stop flying.

  19. @markhburton While awaiting the return of digitised manuscripts in full context to the main British Library website, I've just discovered some favourites in their Images Online section: see for example imagesonline.bl.uk/search/?sea

    What was signiicant in that election is that the local independent candidate David #tully came a strong second to the self-promoting cat - shame he did not win

    I expect normal service to be resumed at #2024GE and #rochdale to return to #labour represented by a clean candidate

  21. @markhburton @pvonhellermannn We cannot now avert collapse; the best we can achieve is a least worst collapse.

    We still all have to do everything we can to achieve that, in the sure and certain knowledge that it won't be enough, but also in the knowledge that every mitigation we can achieve is lives saved.

    I'm sorry, but: "... never going to an Arsenal game again because I can’t accept hospitality is pushing it a bit far."
    Tough, he's actually paid enough to buy those tickets himself if it's that valuable to him.
    Millions of us have to go without because of contingent circumstances. Excuse not good enough.

    And #FrugalHedonism is another wonderful book in the family! 🙂

    Btw, #LeanLogic's available free and in full on this lovely website, custom-built by a fan (with the publisher's blessing):
    leanlogic.online/

    But @pvonhellermannn, if you still plan to join us for #TheDeeperDive, when you enrol you'll get free access to (both audio/text versions of) #SurvivingTheFuture, which I produced as a more accessible gateway to his work, so might help shrink your reading list!

  24. @markhburton, who coordinated the #GettingReal Initiative, was interviewed by the Spanish web journal 15-15-15.org - @revista. The interview explains the origins and development of the initiative and explores issues such as strategy and communication. It is available in English and in Spanish.
