Anyone else got slightly mixed feelings about Xmas this year? I love Christmas mainly for being with family and friends and used to enjoy the buzz of giving gifts to show your love and respect for others too. But now that act is making me downbeat about the rampant consumerism that’s killing our planet. I’m trying to get in the spirit (I’m wearing antler ears 🦌 writing this wrapping presents as eco as I can) but something is making me feel sad that the Christmas I knew as a child is not the one my son or others of his generation and those that follow may experience if the world goes to pot. I know my friends and my partner will tell me not to worry and be more optimistic but today I heard that Earth may have already hit climate change 'tipping point' leading to catastrophic domino effect that threatens civilisation's existence. My husband says we’ll adapt as a human race but only the privileged will love a decent life and no doubt war over resources and water will be rampant. Sorry to be so gloomy. I’m a cheery person really honest! Maybe it’s the Monday blues... But we only have one world folks, please vote for the party you think you will the best for the planet. For the record you can save your hard earned money for me to put towards a donation to the @rainforestalliance or @greenpeaceuk instead. Love and peace to you all xx . . . . . #Mondayblues #thinkingoutloud #ecoanxiety #tryingtogetinthechristmasspirit

👉🏼 Swipe right 👉🏼There’s a lot of confusing political opinion about what we need to do on the environment, but one thing is for sure - we need to throw money at it like we’re at war, because we are. This is a climate emergency 🚨. Here @guardian analysis on where the parties stand. Yes the @guardian has it’s own points of view but personally I find it a good barometer on the environment and all the quoted arguments stack up. . Quote by Joseph E Stiglitz, a university professor at Columbia, the 2001 recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics, a former chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, a former chief economist of the World Bank and the author, most recently, of People, Power, and Profits: Progressive Capitalism for an Age of Discontent
Pleased with our #plasticfree veg haul yesterday. Made up a little for last week’s #plastic sins (sandwiches and biscuits wrapped in plastic 😖). Keep on trying folks! Some habits are hard when you’re busy but we can do it 🙃 . . . . #forgiveme #stilllearning #implusebuy #plasticfree #keeptrying #noplanetb #justgivemebiscuitswithnoplastic #guiltygreenmum #ecomum #mistakes #ecohabits #plasticpollution
👉🏼Petition time! 🚨Right now a group of Brazilian Indigenous leaders are in the UK. In the wake of this year’s horrific fires in the Amazon, they are here to draw attention to the fact critical threats against their lands and biodiversity. Many of the fires in the Amazon rainforest this year were started deliberately and there has also been a sharp rise in land grabbing and invasions of protected Indigenous lands by farmers, loggers and miners since president Bolsonaro came to power a year ago. 80% of the world’s biodiversity is to be found on Indigenous lands and deforestation rates in the Amazon are 11 times lower in Indigenous lands. As guardians of the forest, these people are putting their lives on the line. Tomorrow they are going to Downing Street to deliver a letter to Boris Johnson, along with a petition calling on Johnson to stop trade talks with Brazil until the Amazon and its people are protected. If you want to add your name to Greenpeace’s petition and help reach 250,000 signatures by the time it is delivered to Boris Johnson tomorrow, please click on the link in my bio! ☝🏽💚👊🏼
We have 11 years to sort out the climate crisis and so far it feels our politicians are doing bugger all about it. That’s why I’m siding with @greenpeaceuk in calling on our politicians to have a TV debate on how they intend to limit the impact of climate catastrophe. You can sign the petition by pasting this link into your browser or clicking on the link in my bio: https://secure.greenpeace.org.uk/climate-election-debate-tye. Greenpeace says: “The UN has told us we have a decade - or two election cycles - to cut global emissions in half. Yet politicians still aren’t talking about the climate crisis anywhere near enough. With a UK general election planned in just a few weeks' time, we now have the chance to push them for real climate action that can make a difference. The UK public have a right to hear what party leaders are planning to do about the climate crisis. Let's call on them to hold a televised debate on climate change. Will you sign the petition?” .
