Chilling that lower courts could not see the relevance of emissions from burning fuels. Where were these judges educated? Well done @sarahfinch.bsky.social

Since 2019, Spain has doubled its wind and solar capacity, adding over 40 GW - more than any other EU country except Germany,
So, Spain’s electricity price is much less influenced by the ever-fluctuating cost of gas, which increased due to the Iran war

I just signed the Greenpeace petition calling on the government to power the UK with homegrown renewables. Every conflict abroad sends our energy bills soaring at home. The only way out is cheaper, safer renewable energy. Will you join me in demanding an end to the fossil fuel cost chaos?

“As we face the second global energy shock in less than five years, the lesson for our country is clear; the era of fossil fuel security is over, and the era of clean energy security must come of age,” he is expected to say.

Why should Palestinians believe in the Torah? Do Jews believe in the Koran?
Religious books are not real estate contracts.
Israel has had 80 years trying to bludgeon their point of view in the Middle East in contravention of international law. It’s time they realised their project has failed.

Have been wondering when candidates would start talking about this. One of the biggest corruption scandals is U.S. history playing out in real time.

At 2 °C warming we commit the world to a long-term rise by 8-13 meters until the ice sheets come to a new equilibrium.” Prof S Rahmstorf, Twitter, 8 Feb 2023.

Germany just activated its largest ever solar installation — one farm, 1.5 million homes, zero carbon. The #CottbusSolarPark covers 3,500 hectares and produces 2.1 tw-hours annually, replacing two coal plants that operated on this same land until 2022. #SolarPower #ActOnClimate #Renewables

Another early heat wave hits this week, this time in the Northeast Last month was the hottest March ever recorded in the U.S. Now, record-breaking temperatures are expected again from the Plains to the Northeast.

Educating people on the climate crisis has never been more urgent.

That’s why it was great to attend the local screening of the People's Emergency Briefing - a powerful short film that aims to help people understand the climate crisis.

I’ll keep pushing the Government to protect our environment.

#climatecrisis is real says JPMorgan.
“…research team was “wholly independent from the company as a whole, and not a commentary on it”…The metadata on the pdf of the report…said the document was created on 13 January and that the author was Gabriel de Kock, an executive director at JP Morgan…”

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social I didn’t know that Trump et al were disciples of Orbán. Did you? Snyder’s Substack an interesting read.

Hungary’s prime minister is more important to Donald Trump than all of his voters put together, than all Americans, than America itself, and it’s not even close. I wrote an essay yesterday to explain why: snyder.substack.com/p/the-hungar...

When it comes to the energy transition I'm a glass half full person.

I know: plenty of people would say that's terribly naive. They point to the scale of the challenge. They point to vested interests. They point to hard-to-abate sectors.

And they're not wrong. But here's what they miss.

@geetie.bsky.social I knew it was true.

Filthy sewage is still being dumped into our rivers, beaches and seas. Meanwhile, water company bosses pocket massive bonuses and hike up our bills.

It’s time to end the great sewage cover up.
