Carbon capture is a greenwashing scam. With this funding, the UK Government would be propping up the same fossil fuel industry that has been ripping us off for years. The Acorn Project is a polluters pipe dream that will never live up to the hype.

The Scottish Government now doesn'tย have a Climate Minister. John Swinney has removed 'climate' and 'just transition' from Ministerial titles since he became First Minister a year ago. His Scot Gov has also scrappedย annualย targets & ditched keyย climateย policies foe.scot/press-release/โ€ฆ

In the future we'll need electric buses and we also need the skilled jobs that come with making them in Falkirk. The threat to the future of Alexander Dennis comes just weeks after the closure of Grangemouth oil refinery. Those jobs should be secured by government action๐Ÿงต

Politicians are paying ยฃ200 mill to keep us locked into energy system which is costing us the earth. Carbon capture has 50 years of failure - businesses, workers and the public are being sold a lie about its role in their future.
