Low-income countries are the most exposed to the consequences of the climate crisis even though they contribute much less than us to it. If we don’t help them there will be mass climate migrations, and food systems in many parts of the world will collapse. #climatechange #climatecrisis https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/sep/06/higher-defence-spending-pointless-without-climate-aid-says-un-chief06 Sep 2025 07:58 +0000at://did:plc:kxap7pas3vpbejqimrokmpgc/app.bsky.feed.post/3ly5pd2xca226https://bsky.app/profile/robpic.bsky.social/post/3lwmusncknc24#plastics #microplastics #health https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/microplastics-hot-drinks-tea-coffee-highest-contamination-b2809095.html17 Aug 2025 21:56 +0000at://did:plc:kxap7pas3vpbejqimrokmpgc/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwmusncknc24
