“It’s too difficult” “Others need to act first” “What about fossil fuel jobs?” “Let’s wait for new tech” “Let’s just discuss this a bit more” Climate delayism aims to slow down or indefinitely suspend #ClimateChange actions. Less obvious than denial, it is equally dangerous

It's incredibly brave for a student to stand up for what is right & call out their alma mater in front of all their peers as Eddie has done. The @UniofExeter is in bed with climate criminals @Shell & the world's largest fossil fuel investor bank @jpmorgan 🧵

As Scientists for XR, we passionately believe this. Activist scientists are still the minority, in every academic discipline from climate science to biodiversity. Please join us. As well as this thread from @GeorgeMonbiot , see also @ProfBillMcGuire

Every climate scientist and environmental journalist should make a decision. Is our role merely to document the unfolding tragedy, with sighs and groans about the follies of humankind? Or also to seek to stop the greatest catastrophe humanity has ever faced? I say the latter.

Did you know that - the climate & ecological emergencies are the biggest threats to the future of humanity Did you know that - dedicated scientists and doctors are pleading with governments to act Did you know that - the media prefer to ignore the crises, & rabble rouse instead

The #StateOfNature is tracking in ever greater scientific detail the failure of @GOVUK to protect the natural world on which we all depend. All our reports mean nothing if we dont act! It's time to get out of the lab and on to the streets! #NoNatureNoFuture #RestoreNatureNow

Of course, as scientists, we're never sweary 😁, but @JonathanPieNews puts it very well: Outrage should be directed at those in power doing nothing about the #ClimateEmergency not those campaigning, however compromised by living in this society.

Hi everyone! The response to this feed has been outstanding over the past fortnight. We would like to use the #ScientistsForXR momentum to grow and be a key part of the #XR movement. To do that we could do with some volunteers. Please DM us if you can - thank you!

Why we glued ourselves to a gov’t department In a choice between fossil fuels & a liveable planet, the gov’t has chosen oil & gas The reason is simple: governments don’t respond to science, but to business that invests in political donations & lobbying
