“All this while oppression, inequalities, wars and genocides all over the world continue to intensify.... We are on track to experience the hottest year ever recorded, with the global greenhouse gases reaching an all time high just last year”

As the COP29 climate meeting is reaching its end, it should not come as a surprise that yet another COP is failing. The current draft is a complete disaster. But even if our expectations are close to non-existent, we must never ever find ourselves reacting to these continuous…

BREAKING: the small island states & least developed countries have walked out of #CoP29. No deal is better than a bad deal, one that in some respects arguably goes back even relative to #CoP28… Huge… Will this CoP be a bigger failure even than Copenhagen? It’s now possible.

The MMR vaccine does not cause autism. There is no need for further research on this. It's been done. Multiple times. At a cost of billions. Its a settled question.


At least 8%of Sri Lankans live with disability. They never had proper representation in SL parliament! For eg, no one fought for laws on disability to be implemented. So, this marks one of the greatest moments for health equity in SL history! 👏👏👏 Hope he becomes their voice!
