There's nothing natural about the impact of natural disasters; their impact is deeply unequal. And in the unfolding climate crisis, it's the wealthiest who pollute, but overwhelmingly the poorest who pay the price.

Graphs showing the relative contribution to climate change from the richest 10% (48%), the middle 40% (40%) and the bottom 50% (12%) compared to the relative income losses from climate change for the richest 10% (3%) the middle 40% (22%) and the bottom 50% (75%)

If someone, especially someone who is visually disabled, asks for alt text for the benefit of the visually disabled, and you get annoyed and accuse them of being unreasonable, and they in turn get annoyed at you, it's *your* fault. Disabled people are not the party being vexatious in that situation.

Kissing September goodbye with a beautiful beach day. 🏖

A wide expanse of sand with a dune covered in vegetation in the background. A little of the sea on the right. It all meets a vibrant blue sky.
