The UK’s year of climate U-turns exposes a deeper failure Breaking free of the dangerous pretence that current efforts suffice demands a fundamental rethink of the UK’s climate policy consensus.

Thank you for this article @kevinclimate.bsky.social and colleagues. Insightful analysis. Yes to international justice in UK climate policy. Agree behaviour change and ecological risks should not be downplayed, nor carbon capture overstated. @thecccuk.bsky.social theconversation.com/the-uks-year...

The Planning Bill is not the win-win for nature & building we were promised 🚨

If the Bill proceeds unchanged, it will break new ground in the destruction of nature across England 🥀

Great summary and analysis. Everyone concerned that the UK is already one of the most nature-depleted countries, could write to their MP now, as the Bill goes through parliamentary committee.
