"Germany and Italy swelter in heatwave as records tumble across Europe", headlines today's The Guardian.

They could've also written: "Europe harvests the consequences of consumer societies' denial on climate"

Just a reminder: greenhouse gas emissions make extreme periods (much) longer, stronger, and more frequent.

@W_Lucht encore une contribution de l'UE technocratique et ultra capitaliste aux misères des populations, de la faune et des éco systèmes. Fuck VanderLeyen fuck la commission européennes et tous les européophiles.

in response to this #heatwave, which one will you be?

[revrhizicnatterjacks@discordian.social]

@W_Lucht my my my, if it isn't the consequences of our own actions, shocking.

[revrhizicnatterjacks@discordian.social]

@pelle this seems a bit reductionist, don't you think? Like, all this carbon from fuel is from plant-based sources buried underground millions of years ago...

@W_Lucht @cbecker Maybe even shorter: Europe harvests the consequences of capitalism

@W_Lucht Where can I find this map?

@RevRhizicNatterjacks
1/4 of our greenhouse gas emissions are from food production, and a #vegan diet cuts that with 3/4. it's the easiest and most impactful action you can take.
