good morning, enjoy a crime cat.
#TheCrimeCats say your home will be washed away in a flood, your insurance claim will be denied, you'll become a climate refugee, and the land you once lived on will be bought cheaply by the same corporations pushing climate denial.

Two have died and 19000 people have been evacuated in Baoding near Beijing where 447mm of rain fell in 24 hours.
I just learned that @gerrymcgovern has a website with lots of great essays about the dangers of the “green revolution”. Check it out:

When he asked Tom Murphy about the fossil fuels versus ‘renewable’ energy debate, his response was simple: “In a sense, to me, the question is similar to: which is worse—death by decapitation or bullet through the head? What we do with the energy in either form is leading to a sixth mass extinction.”
Learn this lesson!
A story about fascist aligned businesses and government cuts, coming soon to you too.
My wife is a scientist with a Ph.D. in Atmospheric Physics. She works in the insurance industry in Florida (U.S.A.) and is the director of risk management at a major insurer in Florida (a small insurer for the U.S.A., but major in Florida). She is a Black woman working in the white bro-sphere, and she has survived for a long time despite a constant current against her.

Heavy rain has caused floods and landslides in South Korea leading to the death of at least 18 people.
Talking about the mess we’re in
We’re living in an age of permanent crisis, there’s no going back to “normal.” Stop waiting for it. Let’s just STOP worshipping the #deathcult as a first step away from this mess. The trap we’re in, neoliberalism, or the #deathcult, isn’t optional. It’s systemic. You don’t get to opt out unless you’re rich enough to buy an island… and even then, it’s a fantasy.
But metaphors have value. #deathcult is a metaphor, yes, and a sharp, useful one. It’s a name for the […]
Catastrophic floods have occurred in Western Himachal Pradesh, with 14 known to have died at 28 people still missing. Many houses, businesses and roads have also been damaged or destroyed.

“The UN climate assessment (by IPCC, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the UN policy approach (defined by the Kyoto Protocol and Paris Agreement) are each so seriously flawed that they pose a threat to the future of young people and future generations.”
That and so very much more in James Hansen’s latest email. It’ll be on the page below soon enough. But subscribe—ai em-dash for dramatic effect, doubled now for grammatical necessity—he and his team are among the free-thinkers getting it right.

This. They knew very well what #climatecollapse will bring, when there will be no immediate actions of prevention. And they are willing to sacrifice their own citizens - even the children of their own (radical christian) kind. Their sick mindset goes with "it's the will of god" (the survival of the richest and the plebs dying in masses).
Similar here in Germany. But our god is only capitalism. And it's accepting no other god beside it. And I don't know what's worse...
my complaints to the #OpenUniversity sent on the 23/06/25 for which, besides 2 emails saying they'll reply within 10 days, i am still waiting to get a meaningful reply:
i am a student criminology and psychology at the #ou. i am hereby complaining about the fact that the ou spends student's tuition fees on contracts and so called partnerships with companies that are actively involved in the mass murder of fellow human beings for profit.
the university has a legal duty to uphold domestic and international law, including by cutting ties with companies linked to ongoing #warcrimes.
#BAE weapons have been linked to mass civilian deaths in both #Gaza and #Yemen, confirmed by #UN investigations and independent human rights organisations.
BAE arms authoritarian regimes including #SaudiArabia, #Egypt, #UAE, and #Bahrain—all of which are known for state violence, #repression, and #torture.
In 2024, BAE posted record #profits of over £2.5 billion, profiting from #weapons sold to governments actively involved in #MilitaryAssaults on civilian populations.
BAE has faced multiple major #corruption scandals, including a £286 million #UK settlement and a $400 million fine in the #US over #bribery in arms deals.
#University partnerships whitewash BAE’s image, giving it legitimacy and access to students—despite its central role in the global war machine.
The Open University’s #collaboration with BAE helps normalise the arms trade, making #students #complicit unless we speak out.
War is not only deadly—it is #ecocidal. BAE profits from destruction that fuels #ClimateCollapse, yet the #OU claims to value #sustainability.
why is the ou engaging in this #criminal behaviour for years now, whilst teaching me about so called #crime?
the university has a moral imperative to defend freedom and justice across the world, including the human rights of its academic colleagues in the #Palestinian territories.
#Israel has destroyed all universities in Gaza, and over 300 #schools and #libraries. Education is a target in Gaza, and the OU’s academic peers are at risk.
i demand the open university to immediately #divest our tuition fees from b.a.e. , #microsoft, #alphabet, #cisco and others involved in supporting and enabling #genocide and war across the world.
i am currently on a year off from studying because of #MentalHealth conditions, which only have worsened because of this.
i am seriously considering ending my studies because my #MoralIntegrity is more important than anything in my life, and i am not willing to get a huge debt that i know is being used to kill people. that makes me complicit with war crimes and genocide.
besides , i can't take the study material seriously when the ou is #enabling, #normalising and #funding criminal conduct by the companies it contracts to deliver services and infrastructure, and then refuses to take #accountability.
shame on you!

It's just a tropical storm—yet the destruction is massive. And worse is coming. Hurricane season is peaking, but the agency meant to protect us? Gutted. Budget slashed. Satellites canceled. 1,000+ experts fired. All so billionaires could get tax breaks. Sleep tight.
(Just a reminder, FEMA's budget has been slashed to $0)

The tragic death of 32 people in flash floods in Texas was due to rainfall probably magnified by the effects of the climate crisis.
The disaster was made all the more likely by the gutting of weather service and other government agencies built up over decades to keep the population safe.

Amidst everything else, it’s hard to process all the recent research that #ClimateCollapse is happening *faster* than previously expected. But it very much looks like it.
Re: "Now will people start taking Climate Change seriously?"
No. Probably not until it's on their own doorsteps.
Then they'll blame us.
