Thanks to @sannedd.bsky.social for her excellent amendment to the motion on wildfire management, calling for increased investment in Pearland restoration and rewetting.
@foescot.bsky.socialReposted by @amandafgrimm.bsky.socialListen to the people - not just big tech!
The data centre boom is happening so rapidly, the full scale of its impacts on people, nature and climate are not
yet known.
Email the First Minister now and demand people have their say on AI data centres: act.foe.scot/data-centres...
@amandafgrimm.bsky.social“The super-rich are profiting from the food and energy industries that fuel both the climate and cost-of-living crises,” said Nuri Syed Corser, a campaigner at War on Want. “...We need to tax the super-rich and use their extreme wealth to tackle the climate and cost-of-living crises.” 👇
@samfr.bsky.socialReposted by @amandafgrimm.bsky.socialOn the argument that Britain doing anything about climate change is futile because we're so small.
@amandafgrimm.bsky.social🎉 A huge win for communities and campaigners. And for everyone who thinks that our shared climate and our water supplies should be protected, not sacrificed for profit for the tech sector. A pause is pretty much a moratorium.

@amandafgrimm.bsky.socialThis was a brilliant event! We're tired of waiting for better buses. Get franchising and public ownership done!
@ewangibbs.bsky.socialReposted by @amandafgrimm.bsky.socialA really helpful overview of the North Sea's future which gets to grips with the real nuts and bolts of the situation. Don't believe the hype. It's corporate owners motivated by profits who are closing down oilfields, not environmental legislation.
@amandafgrimm.bsky.social🔥 I saw the Arthur's Seat wildfire damage, it's devastating. The Cairngorms fire is another level. "Governments cannot claim to be protecting Scotland from the consequences of climate change while pursuing policies that deepen the crisis". Like new oil and gas. By @ariane-burgess.bsky.social
