Climate science education should be mandatory for judges Letter from Dr Andrew Boswell #ClimateLitigation in The Independent today independent.co.uk/voices/letters… #FreeFree4 - judges and planning inspectors shld be much better informed on #climate science and the implications of high carbon infrastructure.

Reform now have mayors in East Riding of Yorkshire and in Lincolnshire. They plan to push back against all climate action and renewables projects. Here a summary of what major Renewables projects have delivered thus far in both regions 🧵 1/

“Over 3/4 of a trawler’s catch may be thrown away. It’s hard to imagine a more wasteful way to catch fish.” “No one alive today has known the abundance of a truly wild ocean . . . We have drained the life from our ocean. Now we are almost out of time.” ft.com/content/8726e8…

Fantastic news....congrats Chris Packham on getting this debate to Parliament 🙏 We banned smoking ads - now we can ban fossil fuel ads....:)

Promises to improve #nature are being broken by house builders. Across site visits, researchers found only 53% of ecological features mandated by planning conditions were actually present, dropping to just 34% when newly planted trees were excluded. newscientist.com/article/248008…

They made £3.2bn profit in the UK. They paid -£12.4m in tax. This is why there is no money.

The Planning and Infrastructure Bill is bad for people and nature. It enables luxury homes no one can afford while weakening protections for wildlife. I've backed key amendments to fix this - to improve protections for nature and ensure we get the affordable housing that we need.

UK spring 2025: 30% drier than the infamous 1976. Soil moisture is critically low, and crops are failing to grow or establish. Where growth occurs, yields down >40%. 1 year it's drought, the next it's floods - #Agriculture needs a stable #climate, one we are moving out of.

1/2 In Lincolnshire a third of the population, and over 200,000 homes are at risk of flooding. Much of the county is close to sea level. One of Reform’s first actions is to abolish the Flood scrutiny Committee and amalgamate it with Environment.

The risk of losing the S.America rainforest increases with every 0.1C of global warming. These firms know this. They do not care about anyone or anything but profiting from others loss. Evil.

New proposals on Biodiversity Net Gain from UK Government will harm whole communities. 🚨 Weaker rules for small and medium developments = big damage to wildlife and our natural world. 📉 Nature can't afford this. Read more 👉 wildlifetrusts.org/news/governmen…

For decades the fossil fuel industry peddled climate denial, now when it's obvious they were wrong (and they knew it), we face a new lie - economic denial. theguardian.com/environment/20…

In a climate crisis, there is no such thing as “insignificant GHG emissions”. #NoNewFossilFuels

Nature is in trouble in Angela Rayner’s constituency, with records of some birds down by nearly 75% in recent years & local protected nature sites in poor condition🥀 MPs must fix the Planning Bill to stop this getting even worse 👇 wcl.org.uk/mps-put-on-not… #WilderByDesign

Welcome to Round 1 of Nature or No Nature! Keir Starmer, you were elected on a promise to meet legally binding nature targets. Now, funding for nature, and laws protecting species and habitats, are at risk. So, for a chance to win back public trust, your first question:

I’d love to know how the algorithm works. Every time a climate post reaches a certain threshold (about 10-15k views) there’s a pile in of bots, village idiots, and YouTube experts. Happens every time. They are amusing though.

The UK gov has just published new guidance for environmental impact assessments for oil & gas projects. Despite reports/industry spin, it includes a genuinely robust, credible approach to assessing the emissions caused by burning oil & gas. 🧵 heraldscotland.com/news/25252076.…

Apparently this needs repeating (again) Dhara Vyas, chief executive of industry body Energy UK tells Carbon Brief that it is “crystal clear what has driven electricity bills up in the UK…it’s the wholesale costs, driven by the price of gas”. carbonbrief.org/factcheck-why-…
