#Environmental #protest is increasingly criminalized. Political states often direct justify this repression as protection of the people. Often the targets are #indigenous led and #unions #socialmovements and #youth
Progress happens when we come together to demand change. We should be able to do this without fear of being harmed or hurt by the misuse of policing equipment. Demand your government supports a treaty to regulate the trade in policing equipment today. https://www.amnesty.org/en/petition/regulate-the-trade-in-policing-equipment

2. "The sheer quantity of chemicals being dumped into the environment is quickly growing. UNEP counted the annual release of toxic chemicals in 2006 at 6 million tons, but Worldometer estimates the current release at 10 million tons—a 67% increase in a little over a decade.
Perhaps the most frightening biological impact of many endocrine-disrupting chemicals is their tendency to alter #DNA expression in ways that can be inherited by subsequent generations. It’s long been known that #environmental factors (#food, #air, #water) can cause genes to be switched off or on, or dial their expression up or down. Sometimes the effects are transgenerational, and continued presence of chemicals in the environment can amplify biological impacts from one generation to the next."

#TheresaVilliers was working as corrupt #BorisJohnson 's '#Environmental Secretary', while hiding 70,000💷 of shares in #ShellOil. I guess her job was to ensure that the 'environment' at #10DowningStreet was *shady as fuck*! She was very successful in that!

I fully support the #RSPB England claim that #RishiSunak #MichaelGove and #ThereseCoffey are #liars for weakening #environmental protections.
The fact that pressure has been put upon the organisation to apologise is appalling.

“We find ourselves at a turning point in history. The ongoing #climate crisis coupled with socioeconomic breakdown has shown how fragile our world is, and how interconnected all of the systemic challenges our world faces are. Global conflicts and #environmental degradation have contributed to spiralling energy and food prices, rising debt and increased cost of living, impacting communities around the globe.”

…John Leshy, a #PublicLands expert who served in the #Interior Dept during the Carter & Clinton admins noted that the state was the only leaseholder left in the #refuge. The #Biden admin could have standing to cancel those leases if it found that #environmental reviews & other compliance measures on the leases had been inadequate.

Spatial #synchrony is a key feature of #pest and #disease outbreaks and major source of instability, but little is known about how #seasonality affects it. Walter et al. show using #theoreticalModels how seasonality in #population processes and #environmental drivers alters #synchrony.

The #environmental Kuznets curve in reverse might stand as a general #metaphor: since conditions for accessing cheap and disciplined #labour power tend to be bound up with expanding #BusinessAsUsual, comparatively high #carbon intensity and increased #transport, #capital will shoot its arrows upwards and backwards, towards the summit of #degradation.- Andreas Malm, Fossil Capital: The Rise Of Steam Power and The Roots Of Global Warming.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-09-03/feeding-the-world-but-at-what-cost-fertiliser-challenge/102756764 “there are concerns – particularly in the case of #nitrogen – that fertiliser use comes at cost to the environment.
"There are #GreenhouseGas emissions of both pre-farm, on-farm, and also through post farm activities, including through waste distribution … #environmental impacts, which include eutrophication of waterways, that's increased nitrogen in waterways, which can increase #algal blooms, and sometimes acidification of soils associated with fertiliser application,"

Saw a reply suggesting #environmental policy wasn’t needed, because all 8 billion of us can magically know which particles of #AirPollution are responsible for our chronic illnesses, the premature death of our loved ones, and the #climate disasters that hit us; which polluters they came from, and prove all that in court. We can each easily pursue hundreds of lawsuits, which the courts will have no trouble administering.
Yeah I blocked that person
