It's hard to exaggerate how dangerous the #PolicingBill is It gives the Home Sec powers to decide which protests can go ahead & which can't. Peaceful protests could be criminalised for being too *noisy or disruptive* It puts us on the road to autocracy. We must defeat this bill

Today, The The Guardian released a beautiful and extensive obituary to remember our founder Max Fordham, the "leading building services #engineer of his era, who changed the way architects thought about heating, light and power". Read the full article here: theguardian.com/technology/202…

The right to demonstrate outside Parliament, the right to use some of the peaceful tactics of the suffragettes, the right to make a noise while protesting - all are under threat in the #PolicingBill That’s why it’s so important that peers overturn Government amendments tonight

Official government reports just casually putting the risk of climate triggered wars in the coming decades at medium to high. Cool, cool. Now let's get back to Operation Save Big Dog and chucking environmental protestors in prison.

A very clear message from the people of #Totnes to Fastglobe Saputo Patrick Gillies from our Anniversary of Nothing, each tag representing a day of our time you've wasted. Time to step aside. Give it back to Totnes. Totnes Times Western Morning News Herald Express Private Eye Magazine

.Boris Johnson promised to #buildbackbetter & that means building back greener. Yet nothing in the 12 “missions” of new #LevellingUp proposals even *mention* climate or nature. What a wasted opportunity. He could have introduced a #GreenNewDeal to build back greener & fairer

Energy bills are spiralling & it’s about to get worse📈 Govt has left us at mercy of global gas prices, instead of investing in efficiency & renewables Pls RT to call on Rishi Sunak to introduce a #GreenNewDeal to cut fuel bills & tackle #ClimateCrisis Clive Lewis MP Green New Deal Rising

The scam of 'net zero by 2050' demonstrated again: 1) Bristol airport gets the go ahead for expansion. 2) Govt approves development of Abigail Oil field in the N.Sea. Just turn up the 'Negative emission' dial & all is rosy - i.e. we pass our mitigation burden on to our children.

This is a campaign to keep the UK hooked on the fossil fuels that empower tyrants, make the British public poorer and colder in the long run, and condemn world to 3C+ of warming. It’s the dumbest and most dangerous thing Farage has done in a career of dumb and dangerous things.

Has any elected official recommended to the public that they turn their heating down slightly and try driving a bit slower? I know the IEA has, but has a single minister dared to go there yet?

When solutions + technologies to decarbonise buildings exist but are not the legal bare minimum, it has to be recognised that we have a political barrier to action and a systemic issue to tackle, not a technological problem to solve. We need more voices calling for action ⚠️

The UK government's ruthless and reckless policies that "go for growth” require us all to ask the essential questions that Donella Meadows - mother of systems thinking - set out decades ago. So join me in answering these questions... 1/n

The Degrowth Paradox: It's growing. The last few years have seen immense...growth...in degrowth. It feels like degrowth is beginning to be significantly broached in culture, politics and economics, and certainly now more than ever.
