”Global Witness found more than 600 people at the talks in Egypt are linked to fossil fuels.
That's more than the combined delegations from the 10 most climate-impacted countries.”

Well, I’m slowly getting a little more confident and paddling out deeper into the Mastosphere. Trousers now rolled up to the knees and the water not feeling as cold…

When following back people here, I’m noticing a lot of people haven’t posted anything yet.

If you can’t think of anything to write just yet, then do consider just reblogging (=retweeting!) good content that you see around. You could start with this post, for example, to encourage more people to start sharing content around here.

BTW, as we get the Bylines publications going on here, that will provide ample good news content for the community. 👍👍

#Cricket #WorldCup #T20 ongoing and we cancelled classes after lunch to let the kids watch matches live.

Yesterday's #PAKvsNZ and today's damp squib #INDvsENG.

Mad scenes. Most kids don't have telly at home, and they enjoyed the big screen at school. Cheering, hollering and random wacky responses to onscreen commentary and play. :)
In between overs and wickets, explaining cricketing terms and context to them. Older know-it-alls pitching in and showing off in front of kids and teachers. Enjoying ads and critiquing in the most basic manner.
Reader. Fun was had.
That's my #EduGlow for today.

Tonight’s moon rising with clouds

@Herring1967 would love to receive a notification

Yesterday, I came on here nervously. It was all a bit weird, but intriguing, but weird. And I didn't really know what I was doing.

Today, I'm feeling much more grounded in this place. I've read more. I've played around more. I get it. I love the community spirit here - the philosophy behind it - and I see a ton of potential in the whole federated model. It's fascinating. ♥️

This painting makes me long sweetly for home, and long bike rides, hopefully not against the fen blow (a wind that picks up the soil and slams it in your face till it stings), with some dockey (packed lunch) and a bag of dods (sweets).

A fin poking out of the water at Tītahi Bay

Friend called ambulance after fall. None free. Paramedics came, said he needed hospital, ordered him a taxi to King's. He found A&E ... EMPTY. No staff. Told to return at start of next shift, 6AM.

NHS on knees after 12 Tory years. General election now.

I created this to celebrate #Walthamstow's greatest contribution to the world - Soft-Ply #ToiletRoll. It's on display for one more week at The Mill for their Made in Walthamstow exhibition #embroidery #TextileArt

Today I'm working on the clouds and water. Single threading it with a tiny needle. #embroidery #stitching #art #sacramento #WorkIt

Die #Moose als ein zusammenfassendes Taxon (wie bspw. Farne) gibt es eigentlich nicht. Es ist ein loser Überbegriff in dem die drei unabhängigen Moosstämme der Horn-, Leber- und Laubmoose zusammengefasst werden. Die kleinste Gruppe von ihnen sind die #Hornmoose (#Anthocerotophyta) mit nur 6 Arten in Deutschland. Sie besitzen einen Thallus aus dem hornartige Sporenträger wachsen. Man findet sie häufig auch herbstlichen Stoppeläckern. 🔍 #Bryologie #Bryology #mosstodon

Oh my goodness! #Mosstodon #Sporespondence and #LichenSubscribe must be some of the cutest hashtags! 🥰
