Who’d have thought a fossil-fuel shill like Trump would be the one to spark a green revolution? | George Monbiot The US attack on Iran has made the need for renewable energy inarguable, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

“Greens who were long dismissed as “idealistic” & “unrealistic” now look like hard-headed pragmatists & true patriots. They’re years ahead of their rivals in demanding a transition that makes sense on every level: environmental, economic & political” - great article from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👇

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.

Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars

The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.

Why aren't we doing this?

Skybus axes Newquay to London flights due to fuel costs Skybus cancels all flights between Newquay and Gatwick, with the last flight leaving on Thursday.

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 hikes?

I’m a Green Party councillor for City Ward #Sheffield. It’s a densely populated urban ward.

I’m going to talk about digital advertising screens, which doesn’t sound exciting, but please bear with me.

I want to explain why I spend time objecting to so many of these.

Since 2023, I’ve …

A terrible decision, and one which will do huge damage to the Government's climate credentials.

As Ed knows, this drilling won't lower bills, but instead it sends a clear message that Britain won't be a world leader on ending oil and gas exploitation

Every war, trade war and pandemic makes the case for renewables stronger.

Cartoon of someone cycling on a narrow pavement on which the council have generously painted a cycle lane logo. They're really spoiling us. The cyclist is not short of exciting obstacles to navigate, what fun: potholes, brambles, a car parked on the pavement, broken glass, and the pole of a sign that reads Please use the cycle path

Simon Dudley, a former head of Homes England, had announced in February that he was joining Reform, as Nigel Farage said he was planning to bring more “experts” onboard to advise the party.

In Australia, Victoria and Tasmania Waive Transit Fares as Fuel Prices Soar The measures in Victoria and Tasmania are temporary, but show how far and how intensely the oil shock from the war in Iran has spread.

Two Australian states, Victoria and Tasmania, are temporarily making public transport free in an effort to insulate residents from the widening oil shock from the Iran war.

‘Wow, people were so angry at Labour!’ Green MP Hannah Spencer on politics, plumbing, smears and snobbery The 34-year-old plumber last month secured the Green party its first byelection victory and a record fifth concurrent MP.

"This is fixable. We just haven’t got people who care enough about other people to make the changes."

Such a wonderful interview with Hannah Spencer. Really captures both my brilliant friend and colleague. 👇🏼

One flight can wipe out the carbon savings from many everyday changes.
For people who fly, it’s often the biggest part of their carbon footprint.
Choosing trains, ferries or coaches can make a huge difference.

It's been eight hours since the Government announced that crypto donations to political parties had been banned effective immediately and Reform's crypto portal is still accepting donations

Labour have been smearing the Greens on our evidenced-based approach to drugs. If the PM won’t listen to us, and he won’t listen to the experts, will he listen to the families at @anyoneschild.bsky.social, who have lost loved ones under the UK’s current negligent drug policies?

Flights are the biggest slice of many people's carbon footprint often bigger than diet, home energy, car combined. Switch modes, make a massive dent. Flight Free UK inspires that shift. Donate to grow the movement

Yep. Almost a perfect curve from our panels today....

I just noticed there's a giant fusion reactor in the sky. We could probably get some energy from that if oil is a problem

This is a deeply dangerous escalation by Starmer, taking us further into an illegal & unpopular war, and making us a target. When was the vote in parliament??

In West Park, Leeds to honour Pooh's 100th birthday.

Whiplash listening to this Reform spokesperson.

Complaining energy bills are going up yet Reform support this illegal & unpopular war.

They have constantly opposed investment in green infrastructure to secure our energy security - which would massively reduce bills.
