  1. Decades of feminism paved the road to Andrew’s arrest

    "Without feminism, the sequence of events that led to Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest would never have happened. It’s a reminder that feminism is powerful and important and even transformative, which is why there’s so much pushback from those who benefit from the old inequalities and the old silences, which are pretty much the same thing." - Rebecca Solnit

    "The work continues." >>

  6. I came across this fishing equipment that had washed up on the beach. It’s far too heavy for anyone to remove & carry 3km out of the National Park. Likely it will stay here, slowly degrading & distributing plastic particles into the environment for many years to come. Unless a huge storm washes it out to sea, in which case it will degrade in the ocean.

  9. #EnvironmentalDestruction is not separate from #social harm. #ClimateCollapse intensifies conflict, displacement, & hunger. Those least responsible suffer first. This reveals the ethical failure of concentrated wealth. (1/2)

  12. I'm listening to the audiobook of "Daring to be Free" on resistance to slavery, which is great. There's a lot more depth on some regions than others, but just got to a bit about St. Thomas (now part of US Virgin islands)

    Most of the slaves they were bringing in during early settlement were competent sailors and shipbuilders, brought direct from Africa. And they were NOT going to stay. Fuck this, we're stealing anything sailable and getting out of here. And if we can't steal one, we're escaping into the interior and we'll MAKE one.

    So governor at time has every single tree of a size suitable for dugout canoes cut down. On the entire island.

    The sheer amount of EFFORT that had to go into maintaining this system. Sure, you were doing some ongoing deforestation to build plantations, but then to upgrade to full on massive deforestation to try and keep those enslaved people's ON those plantations is a whole nother level.

    Surely that did not contibute to all the ecological problems you had in the following century.
    surely

    IDK, there's a less here about hyperconcentration of wealth just leads to even greater concentration and more and more destructive methods of maintaining said system until it devours itself.

    Interesting book overall!

  13. Two massive data centres are being planned for the outskirts of Edinburgh. Each one would emit more than 200,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. That’s roughly the same as all the emissions from Edinburgh Airport.

    Thankfully, Edinburgh Council has now told Foxglove that it is willing to “re-evaluate” its decision not to require an Environmental Impact Assessment.
