What’s new North Sea Oil drilling like?
It’s like emptying our own bank account and handing it over to:
🇳🇴 Norway (Equinor) and
🇮🇱 Israel and 🇮🇹 Italy (Ithica)
Here you are guys, accept our donation! Our infrastructure is failing but hey ho.

Planning Inspector Visits Site!
Today local residents gathered outside the proposed Canford incinerator site during the Inspector’s visit.
Seeing the location matters. This would mean 40 years of burning waste beside Canford Heath, close to homes, schools and businesses.

“Developers & politicians need to understand mitigation is flawed & ecologically unsound
Mitigation can never prevent harm, especially for ancient habitats, where their location, age & interconnectedness are central to their conservation value”

Scientists using LLMs (AI) to write/modify text & to précis the literature is a slippery slope
Scientific training is about learning how to: write clearly & succinctly, assess the literature, develop our own knowledge, & be critical thinkers
Using LLMs to do these undermines scientific integrity

Hear what Vikki Slade MP says about Canford incinerator …
This development is “simply unacceptable”. It would bring air pollution, impacts to Canford Heath and its wildlife, and to local communities and the wider Dorset environment.

Hmm, you could always talk about the World Cup being a huge money-making venture with a massive carbon footprint,
putting immense pressure on local infrastructure, waste management systems & water resources

Canford incinerator isn’t a temporary solution. If MVV win the appeal, it would run 24/7 for 40 years.
That’s four decades of waste burning, traffic, air pollution, CO2 and a 110m chimney on Canford Heath.
What sort of Dorset do we want in 2066?

Rebels block access to Westin Copley Place Hotel where the Northeast LDC Gas Forum is meeting; we demand that Massachusetts ban new fossil fuel infrastructure & rapidly transition off natural gas. GAS is BAD for MASS! ARRESTS EXPECTED #ClimateCrisis xrboston.org/press/climat...
