With the IPCC report and climate change in the news, a couple of reminders are due:
"The wealthiest 5% alone – the so-called “polluter elite” - contributed 37% of emissions growth between 1990 and 2015."
The so-called “polluter elite” must change their lifestyles to tackle climate change, a report says.
"Luxury consumption by the rich concentrates economic activity and delivers negligible extra wellbeing, yet sucks up vast amounts of resources."
Demand would shift from luxuries to necessities.
"Affluent individuals can emit several ten thousand times the amount of greenhouse gases attributed to the global poor."
The billionaire’s new book, a bid to be taken seriously as a climate campaigner, has attracted the usual worshipful coverage. When will the
"Half of all our economic activity – all the mines, all the factories, all the power stations, all the shipping, and all of the ecological impact that’s associated with these things – is done to make rich people richer."
Ecological breakdown isn’t being caused by everyone equally. If we are going to survive the 21st century, we need to distribute income and w
"The wealthiest 0.54%, about 40 million people, are responsible for 14% of lifestyle-related greenhouse gas emissions."
We need to move towards ‘sufficiency-oriented’ lifestyles.
The rich are primarily to blame for the global climate crisis!
The Leeds University study looked at 86 countries and came to broadly the same conclusions about the rich.
"The world’s superyacht fleet uses over thirty-two million gallons of oil and produces 627 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions a year . The world’s superyachts consume and pollute more than entire nations."
Mansions, superyachts, luxury cars, and private jets produce more carbon emissions than whole countries. Researchers are calling it “green c
"The grim truth is that the rich are able to live as they do only because others are poor: there is neither the physical nor ecological space for everyone to pursue private luxury."
Increased spending power leads to environmental damage. It’s time for a radical plan, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot
The wealthy pose our single biggest obstacle to environmental progress.
They coarsen our culture, erode our economic future, and diminish our democracy. The ultra-rich have no redeeming social value.
"The people who are actively cranking up the global thermostat and threatening to drown 20 percent of the global population are the billionaires in the boardrooms."
As the world faces environmental disaster on a biblical scale, it's important to remember exactly who brought us here.
There no undivided, undifferentiated "humanity" that caused climate change. It is the fault of the ultra-rich, of capitalism, and of an economic system that prioritises growth over all else.
A better world is possible. It doesn't include rich people.

That awkward moment when you’re your own dad and your own son but also kind of your dead mom and wife all at the same time
He is The Family Guy
That comment just fucking launched me 10 states back
This is so wholesome
Update: he finally got the cat to the vet to see if she had a microchip
I was already on board with his sweet wholesome open-to-love-and-nurturing heart but I was fully unprepared for getting to that last tweet and seeing how off the hook HOT dude is
https://twitter.com/pariszarcilla?lang=en heres his twitter is here there is also additonal cat photos of his children.
CAT DAD IS BACK
aww, the kids grow up so fast. ;-;
HHHHHHHH I LOVE CAT DAD!
This is, by far, the single most adorable fucking thing I have ever seen.
update:
I love that he kept …. All of them.
I’ve reblogged the earlier part of this thread before, and the new stuff makes it even better.
This is the Tumblr equivalent of a warm hug on a cold day.
You’re welcome.
I remember this thread, but I never saw the grown-up pics ❤
@every-n-anything
Awwww!
Exactly
See that picture above? That’s a close up of my great grandmother’s immigration papers when she first came to the US back in the early 20th century. But my great grandma’s information isn’t the important part here. The important part is that line in the middle there about how they arrived in the country.
And how ‘stowaway’ is a legitimate, valid option to select.
So yeah. They absolutely just showed up, and that part of immigration history needs to be talked about a lot more.
REMINDER THAT TRAVEL VISAS AS WE KNOW THEM TODAY WERE INVENTED IN THE 1930S TO KEEP JEWISH REFUGEES OUT OF COUNTRIES THAT DID NOT WANT AN ‘INFLUX’ OF THEM, THEREBY FACILITATING THEIR GENOCIDE :)))))
read What is A Refugee for more history. Educate yourselves.
tadano.
I don’t really know how to describe this feeling other than stressful, so I decided to draw it
Please let me draw and “sketchnote”
Ugh I know it
“If you’re drawing you’re not listening.” Absolutely untrue!! It’s ‘optimum arousal’. It’s why people can sing along to the radio while their driving to work and not worry about missing turns, but they need to turn down the music to navigate to a brand new address. Driving to work has become muscle memory and you actual need an outside stimuli to keep you’re brain paying attention. You need more brain power to navigate something new, so the music is now a distraction.
Same thing with people who listen better while doodling. If you’re an auditory learner you need something to occupy your vision and kinestics to optimally listen to what you’re supposed to learn. Auditory learners listen better when doodle- fact!
(fyi- I’ve been a teacher for 16 years. I know what I’m talking about.)
Wait, is this not an ADHD thing or do we just do this normally…
Only had a handful of teachers that understood this, and they were always the good ones.
When I was in college (the teachers didn’t really care about doodling in college) I would always doodle in the margins while I was listening. Later, I could look at the doodle and remember EXACTLY what the teacher was saying and what was going on in the class at that moment.
It was almost better than the actual notes when it came to test prep.
kadabra following you is literally terrifying
Concept: A gender reveal party but AFTER the kid is born.
Like when the kid is 6 or 12 or 18 or 24. When the kid has decided what their gender is or isn’t.
This is so fucking beautiful that I have no words.
I will always reblog this.

Don’t You Love When News Corporations Imply Not Wanting To Be Consumed By Your Job Is A Fad
“The less you eat, drink and read books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save-the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour-your capital. The less you are, the more you have; the less you express your own life, the greater is your alienated life-the greater is the store of your estranged being.” -Marx
