Tax The Rich
We want a European wealth tax to finance the social and climate transition and help countries hit by climate change. Sign this European Citizens' Initiative for a fairer, more sustainable world.

Oha: The sea around Taiwan and the Philippines, but very likely also Indonesia and Malaysia is now reaching temperatures of 30C...

People, who are not freaking out about #climatechange just really really confuse me.
Like, don't you have any survival instinct? Any care for your kids future? My brain is completely unable to process these facts. The fact that for example Europe is moving towards less action towards securing a future, through a democratic process of voting more right wing. Which means yet more short term politics, less long term future security. A democratic process, where people are actually willingly making things worse, without anyone forcing them to do so. At least people in non-democratic countries have no choice.
The future scares me. The future my three kids will be living in. The collective stupidity of the human race is just mind boggling.
I feel this Abe, so hard.

A wax sculpture of Abraham Lincoln in Northwest DC has melted due to the heat....๐ฅตQuote from the artist Sandy Williams to the Intelligencer:
"I previously had joked that when our climate gets bad enough to where we are living in an environment where the ambient heat melts these sculptures, thatโs when this work becomes an environmental artwork. I didnโt know that was going to be this summer."
Before and after photos..
I have air conditioning. It is great.
I'm off grid solar, so it's free. Cold as I want.
But it doesn't cool the outdoors, where I want to be.
I shall reduce my carbon footprint even further, while #AI turns up the heat to a rolling boil.

No wonder I can't stop the #aphids in my apartment and the balcony.
This is a plant on our street, almost all of them are covered with them.
In all my years here, I've never seen so many aphids on street plants, specially not in June m
