Until we shift the media narrative from “What can you do to stop climate change” onto “your government is responsible to decarbonise the infrastructures that you rely on”, we won’t hit Net Zero. In part due to inequalities in wealth, tenure, ownership + access to information. 🧵

Building Physics Lesson: Leaky, insufficiently or uninsulated buildings continue to be leaky and energy inefficient if you throw a heat pump at them. The very 1st step in any evidence-based decarbonisation strategy. begins with and prioritises fabric first approaches at scale.
