A key factor for how many heat pumps get installed: It is the ratio between electricity and gas prices (so-called spark gap). EHPA produced this helpful graphic showing that countries with the highest spark gap also see fewest heat pump installs.

The summer holidays are here and the sun is shining. If you're going for a walk on the moors, take a picnic, not a barbecue, so that you can play your part in protecting this precious landscape. Severn Trent #peatlandsmatter #befireaware

1 year post-restoration ⏱️🚧 We recently revisited a site that completed #peatlandrestoration work last summer and found the timber dams are successfully filling up with #sphagnum moss already! 🌱💦

The primary energy fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with an equivalent amount of clean energy. BUT: This is not necessary because conversion losses do not need to be replaced. More than 2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste

The figures speak for itself, 1 in 2 of us will get cancer & there’s a direct link to PM2.5. PM2.5 comes from both human made sources (motor vehicles, residential fire places & woodstoves, agricultural burning & forest fires, power plants) & natural sources (dust, ash, sea spray)

This summer we’re urging people to stay safe around open water 🏊 Even on a hot day, open water can be very cold and jumping in can lead to cold water shock, which can result in drowning. If you see someone in difficulty in open water, call 999 immediately.

A high-water mark eight feet above the previous record is insane. It is a discontinuity with all prior experience of the river. We'll be seeing more and more of these unprecedented events. The climate crisis is an era, not an issue.

Media pundits: the problem with climate change is it's too slow moving and remote for people to feel it's impacting their lives. Climate change:

There was a 60% decline in populations of wild vertebrates between 1973 and 2021. If there was a 60% decline in the human population, it would be the same as emptying North America, South America, Africa, Europe, and China. The scale of biodiversity destruction is staggering.

Dozens are missing as floods & landslides deluge Nepal’s capital city and Kathmandu Valley, claiming numerous lives. Solidarity with survivors & all involved in rescue efforts ❤️ Greedy corporations must be held to account for worsening such disasters.
