"Hi, is this still available? Thanks!" I listed wine glasses on gumtree three weeks ago. Every week since I've had this message from a different user. I respond promptly with a "Yes they are!",then no response. Three times! I'm beginning to think this is an organised stock take.

Less than four months til Halloween. Now, there's a scary thought.

Grief knowing this is still happening 25 years after the 8 year old Will was so shocked to learn about it Shame knowing my lifestyle is still part of the problem Motivated to up my game to respond now that the 42 year old me can make a difference. bbc.co.uk/news/world-lat…

Quite warm today

Just when I think the UK is hot, I read Basra is at 52C, it's 36C at midnight! Real unsurvivable heat. Grim. It's at the same time that oil companies are raking in over a $1 billion A DAY wrecking our world. High time to kick the oil habit.

Really shocked by this.

Ever wanted to ask a question of a climate scientist? Now you can!

Heaters that overheat.

Big thanks to my wonderful team mate Rosine Uwineza 💫for burning the late candle today. It's rare that we work late but I've been juggling a sick child, the NHS and getting this report together in time for a funders' board meeting🤞. We made it and I am so grateful! 🙌

Great research alert! Having championed #communityenergy for much of my career it's both pleasing to hear it's a multi-billion £€ part of the European energy system but disappointing that citizen-led schemes are under 1% of the total anthropocenemagazine.org/2023/03/inside… via @AnthropoceneMag

*Only* subsidising institutionalised #childcare is another symptom of a growth-obsessed regime. This Civitas think tank idea to give parents a fund and let them choose how to spend it, childcare fees or to make up the lost income to 'stay at home', makes sense. civitas.org.uk/publications/w…

Every future increment of global warming will intensify the #climatecrisis. A child born now is likely to have experienced three to four times as many extreme climate events in their lifetime as their grandparents did. Mark Howden Frank Jotzo abc.net.au/news/2023-03-2…

It's my job to tell people how hard a world 1.5°C hotter would be to live in. Yet that hasn't primed me for the shock of now being in that world. This is not a drill. Where do we go from here? The choice is fossil fuels and carry on to 3°C or renewables. It's time. #climate

Talking climate in a board meeting – not always easy. But the rewards are great. It’s not just a moral argument – it’s a business one too. See our ad in the FT today. Transition to net zero takes leadership and persistence – traits Greta Thunberg is only too familiar with.
