Déjà vu! 1) PM promises £millions for a small CCS scheme (ie. green fudge & sop to the oil &gas sector) 2) BBC Radio 4 Today & Justin Rowlatt fall for the glint of yet more future shiny kit 3) the climate keeps warming! Open the bonnet & CCS is far from green. climateuncensored.com/prime-minister…

Blocking the roads like this is completely unacceptable. They should lock up the people who did this and throw away the key. #JustStopOil

I completely agree with Dale Vince and Chris Packham👇🏼Sunak has doubled down on fossil fuels to make his mates in the industry richer while the rest of us go to hell. No doubt he hopes they’ll pay to rebuild his party when we vote them out next year. Let's never have them back!

Dear Jonny Dymond & #bbcwato next time you interview a minister, especially Shapps, on energy security and new oil & gas, please make sure you’re properly prepared

What is ACT's Economy group for? - we want to make people aware that the actions they take to mitigate the climate & nature crisis will challenge the 20th century economic thinking that still dominates politics and media - see how: actionclimateteignbridge.org/newsite/post.h…

BusinessGreen This demonstrates the Orwellian world we’re moving towards when via serious journalism we normalise a narrative that more oil &gas will help the world move towards less oil & gas.

The Limits to Growth: Ecosocialism or Barbarism by Alberto Garzón🔻 remains a favorite essay of mine. It's an essential read, touching on the relationship between production & consumption, degrowth & efficiency, & a clarion call for ecosocialism — or barbarism. monthlyreview.org/2022/07/01/the…

Deeply depressed at the thought of every centrist dad in the country confidently telling their mates down the pub that 2C of warming isn't a big deal, because they heard Bill Gates tell Alastair Campbell as much on The Rest is Politics.

“The mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, has now proposed tripling parking rates for SUVs in central Paris to €18 an hour, and €12/hour for the rest of the city. The measure…would affect roughly 10% of the cars in the city.” Cybertruck isn’t allowed at all. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

On BBC Radio 4 Today speaking on climate change John Kerry claims “the US is living up to its word”. This is not true. The US signed the Paris Agreement; to make its fair contribution to hold to “well below 2°C” & “pursue .. 1.5°C”. Nick Robinson should have picked him up on this!
