here’s some sketches from my recent trip to the cévennes in france! it’s such a beautiful place, I always feel so inspired by the roughness of the nature there, and the beautiful clear rivers.

Iceland held a funeral for the first glacier to lose its official glacier status due to climate change.

There’s something sad and poetic about that. Something ancient, massive, beautiful, and awe inspiring has been killed… and we all know why it was killed.

A plaque was laid down that says: 

“In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it.”

415ppm C02

This is a tragedy and a reminder that climate change isn’t a hypothetical issue for us to face in 2050. It is a real problem happening right now all around the world. Iceland loses 11 billion tonnes of ice per year. Scientists expect all of Iceland’s more than 400 glaciers (which cover 11% of the country’s surface) will be gone be 2200.

An Australian mammal, the Bramble Cay melomys has gone extinct due to climate change destroying its island habitat. Many other animals are threatened with extinction such as bumblebees, whales, apes, the Monarch butterfly and more. 1.5C degrees of warming will lead to a loss of 80% of the world’s coral reefs and 2 degrees will destroy them ALL. Atoll nations Kiribati, Tuvalu, the Maldives, and the Marshall Islands are at great risk of rising sea levels. Farmland in Fiji is becoming too salty due to climate change and entire coastal villages must abandon their ancestral homes and their cultural connection to their lands. The Torres Strait Islanders are being threatened by rising sea levels, destroying land the Indigenous Peoples have a deep spiritual connection to. The effects of climate change are here. We are already suffering the effects and we haven’t even reached the worst of what’s to come.

Meanwhile governments around the world deny climate change. Australia is the 3rd largest exporter of fossil fuels in the world, contributing a massive carbon footprint. Our emissions are rising.

And this is all because oil/fossil fuel companies have been paying people to lie about climate change for decades. Exxon KNEW that climate change would warm the climate BACK IN THE 70s and decided profits were more important than saving the environment. Governments have known about climate change for DECADES but big business donations have made them drag their feet or create misinformation campaigns to divide public opinion and allow them to get away with inaction.

Anyone who denies climate change is a fucking liar.

Any politician who doesn’t act on climate change is evil and destroying the planet.

here’s some more sketches from my trip to the cévennes last week! I love the charming cities and towns there - they’re so old and visiting them feels like travelling back in time.

For decades, the medical community has ignored mountains of evidence to wage a cruel and futile war on fat people, poisoning public perception and ruining millions of lives. It's time for a new paradigm.

“Diets do not work. Not just paleo or Atkins or Weight Watchers or Goop, but all diets. Since 1959, research has shown that 95 to 98 percent of attempts to lose weight fail and that two-thirds of dieters gain back more than they lost. The reasons are biological and irreversible. “

Fatsplaining at its finest. I don’t give a fuck when someone chooses to not be healthy, but don’t sit there and make bullshit excuses and blame anything other than yourself and your lack of self control. Take responsibility and own up to it, you’re not fooling anyone.

[bogleech]

I’m sorry other people’s shapes make you so angry that you pretend science is wrong

[mschaos]

Obviously this person must think climate change is wrong and vaccines cause autism

THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

[ultrafacts]

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

[retro-geek-deactivated20220412]

For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.

[karinanotcinerina]

Beautiful.

[system-fail-ure-deactivated2021]

Now I’m crying thanks

[sapphic-matriarchy]

and a new cat was hired right?

[clarenecessities]

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

[beasti]

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

[sighinastorm]

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

^Nitama majestic, and below with Yontama

Yontama.

a legacy

[bemusedlybespectacled]

okay but actually what happened to santama (or sun-tama-tama, which is her name because it’s a pun on santama) was that she was basically sent to train for the position in okayama and they liked her so much they refused to send her back

[kindaoffkilter]

“Sun-tama-tama” (a pun off of “Santama”, lit. “third Tama”) was a calico cat sent for training in Okayama. Sun-tama-tama was considered as a candidate for Tama’s successor, but the Okayama Public Relations representative who had been caring for Sun-tama-tama refused to give the cat up writing, “I will not let go of this child, she will stay in Okayama.” [25]

As of September 2018, Sun-tama-tama is working as the stationmaster in Naka-ku, Okayama and appears occasionally on Tama’s Twitter account.
