One thing Abundance throws into sharp relief is how totally Trump has embraced scarcity: Fewer people, less trade, a broken and corrupted government. They didn't need to make these choices. It's crap politics. But this is the future Trump wants.
Ezra Klein is right. Trump and Musk’s vision for the future sucks.
Done. My £1,000 donation was doubled to £2,000 plus £250 Gift Aid too. Ever closer to our £100,000 target! This ‘double your donation’ opportunity closes in less than 24 hours. If you can give, please donate at the @BornFreeFDN tweet, linked from my post below. Thanks SO much. Wx
Urgent! I care so much about the vital work of @BornFreeFDN - the charity I co-founded with #VirginiaMcKenna and #BillTravers 41 years ago - that if at least 5 others join me, I’ll donate £1,000, using the link in the BFF Tweet below, on 27 April. Are you in? DM me to confirm!

Important reporting on the LA wildfires. Yesterday it was also announced that 2024 average temps exceeded 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels for the 1st time (the end of what's considered a 'safe zone' for humanity). Some joined up thinking is much needed! youtube.com/watch?v=dO_53l…
Elon Musk has had a lot to say about the grooming gangs scandal. We looked at 24 hours on Musk's X timeline and found a range of false and misleading information being amplified. Produced by Catherine Karelli, Shayan Sardarizadeh and Jake Horton. Graphics by Jacqueline Galvin.
Wow! Palisades in LA is COMPLETELY GONE.. This is horrible.
Brief interlude from my Twitter absence (is anyone here?) to say I’m going to be doing some writing on Substack. I’m fortunate to be meeting some very interesting people who I think have far more to teach than I do about environmental / political issues —> open.substack.com/pub/bellalack/…
