Chemical pollution has passed safe limit for humanity, say scientists

Study calls for cap on production and release as pollution threatens global ecosystems upon which life depends
❗️ Yesterday thousands of people took to the streets across the UK to Kill The Bill ❗️
The Police Bill is an attack on our democratic right to protest. History shows there's no social progress without protest & there's no successful protest without causing "serious annoyance" to those in power.
➡️ TAKE TO THE STREETS AGAIN ON MONDAY
Join us on Monday 17th January, 5-7pm, College Green (opposite the House of Lords) for a Really Annoying Protest, hosted by Mark Thomas, Global Justice Now, Kill the Bill, and XR.
Bring something really annoying with you. It might be a Jeremy Clarkson mask, a plastic takeaway container with an ill-fitting lid, a ’musical’ children’s toy or your younger brother. There will be speakers and fun, annoyance and the will to change things for the better.https://fb.me/e/mhCchm05I

Hundreds of clinical psychiatrists and psychologists have warned that the police and crime bill currently reaching its final stages in parliament “will have a profound negative impact on young people’s mental health”.
“We cannot think of better measures to disempower and socially isolate young people,” they say in an open letter signed by more than 350 academics and clinicians and published online.
