An Ecocide Bill that would criminalise those causing severe ecological harm has reached stage two in the Scottish Parliament. If passed, it would be one of the first in the world. SCCS chair and RSGS chief Dr Mike Robinson reflects on the need to punish #ecocide.

SCCS is calling for a halt to construction of hyperscale data centres across Scotland until their climate impacts can be fully understood.
Dr Kat Jones, director of SCCS member APRS, highlights concerns over the massive quantities of energy required to power them 👇
SCCS has written to Scotland's First Minister and party leaders calling for a moratorium on power-hungry hyperscale data centres until the full scale of their environmental impacts can be assessed.

An important letter, signed by almost 90 groups, has been sent to the UK Prime Minister. It calls for climate finance to be increased and a fair tax on the biggest polluters to fund green action at home and abroad.

Last night 300+ people attended our National Climate and Nature Hustings to ask party representatives about the action they would take if elected.
Questions ranged from agriculture, international climate finance, data centres, and many more.
The Climate Change Committee's latest report shows Scotland is falling behind on cutting emissions from homes and land. ⚠️
Tackling the climate crisis isn't optional, it's essential. We need to act now. 🌍
#EnergySky #Climate @thecccuk.bsky.social
Climate advisors warn the Scottish government lacks a credible plan to cut farming emissions. Agriculture is a major driver of climate change, and farmers and crofters need real support and funding to shift to sustainable practices.
