UK government has announced "a bee-killing pesticide so poisonous that it is banned by the EU" may be used in England.
New coal mines and pesticides... the UK's so called "green industrial revolution" is off to a great start.
Very credible indeed.

Logic tells us, the fact this is ignored - or in the best case treated as a minor news story - means:
-There's no crisis
-This is fine
-The science is inaccurate
-Scientist are hugely exaggerating
-Climate activists are crazy alarmists
No wonder there's no change in sight... twitter.com/GretaThunberg/…

2020 was the warmest year ever recorded tied with 2016 according to @CopernicusECMWF
"It is notable that 2020 matches the 2016 record despite a cooling La Niña, whereas 2016 was a record year that began with a strong warming El Niño event."

The UK government has decided not to intervene with the plans of opening a brand new English coal mine.
This really shows the true meaning of so called “net zero 2050”.
These vague, insufficient targets long into the future basically mean nothing today. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Study in Nature says "the carbon pollution already put in the air will push global temperatures to about 2.3°C".
But of course this doesn't mean it's "game over".
It means we're in a crisis and we'd better start to act like it.

When your house is on fire you don’t wait another 10, 20 or 30 years before calling the fire department.
When your house is on fire you don’t wait another 10, 20 or 30 years before you stop actively pouring petroleum on the flames. You act now.
In every way you possibly can.

"Tyvärr – och det är allvarligt – har klimatjournalistiken alltför länge omgärdats av förbehåll, uppsatta av journalisterna själva, som gjort att frågan inte skildrats på ett rättvist sätt. Medierna har väjt undan av rädsla för vara för nattsvarta".

But, hey! Our leaders have set up some vague hypothetical targets decades into the future full of loopholes and based on incomplete numbers - so we can all continue to ignore the consequences of our actions, pretend everything is all right and go back to sleep! twitter.com/tveitdal/statu…

This has been pointed out over and and over again throughout 2020 by leading experts and yet it has been pretty much completely ignored in the debate. twitter.com/swetac/status/…

This is the place we call “normal”. But ”normal” was also a crisis, and it’s no place to return to after the pandemic. It’s a place we must leave to safeguard future living conditions. We must start to move towards a zero carbon society while leaving no one behind in the process.

Den förväntade CO2 utsläppsminskningen på 7% pga COVID-19 raderas troligtvis ut för att sänkor på land (tillfälligt?) försvagats. När kolsänkor försvagas eller blir till utsläppskällor ritas kartan om.
Men, vi har förstås fullt upp med andra nyheter... 4c-carbon.eu/sites/default/…

Preliminary data show that the 2020 7% emission decrease is erased by a slightly weaker carbon land sink.
This is almost impossible to grasp... twitter.com/Peters_Glen/st…

There's a myth that young people get anxious or depressed when people talk about the reality of the climate crisis.
My experience is the opposite.
The worst part is denial, looking away, downplaying or spreading false hope saying ”we'll fix this” without taking sufficient action.
