I describe here 4 decades of US defense/intelligence reports on the threat of #climatechange to national security.

The new 2025 report from Trump's Office of the Director of National Intelligence explicitly censors out ANY mention of #climate change threats to #peace and #security or to the operations and bases of US #military. This is political interference with intelligence analysis.

“We put mediators in place to help stitch these communities back together,” said one employee. “So it does have a dramatic effect on #violence on the ground immediately by just pulling these assets out.”

hatred for war, the most famous being “Guernica” (1937). During WWII, Picasso stayed in Nazi-occupied Paris, and when France was liberated, he joined the French Communist Party. He actively participated in international peace congresses, including the Paris Peace Congress in 1949, creating drawings of doves to promote the events.

Did you know the dove being a symbol for #peace is a Picasso invention? I didn’t until today. 🕊️

It’s a funny time for “abundance” to be on the agenda when literally the first source of any kind of abundance - species abundance - is rapidly declining across all #species & #ecosystems.

Of course, this is not part of Klein/Thompson’s analysis.

Have you noticed? Morning is never in a hurry.

Each and every day she emerges slowly, quietly, calmly into a dance that starts with the veriest glimmer of light, a light that grows steadily, inexorably, into a glow that fills the entire landscape.

I don't usually cover war topics as it is very far from what I usually like to talk about, and prefer advocating for #peace usually.

But I do pay close attention to what is actively happening on the front line of #ukraine and shamelessly like active #war and #drone footage.

#russia is so out of equipment they are using donkeys and civ cars to transport stuff.

Usually gets blown up by INSANE drone pilots.

I feel sorry for the donkeys. The men too, but they chose that.
