#CEEBill
UK will use up its fair share of global carbon budget in just 5 years, if consumption emissions included
That’s the reality
That’s the inconvenient truth
That’s why we urgently need new Climate & Ecology Act, in line with the science
From my debate on #CEEBill @CEEbill_NOW 👇
“Our ambition is to be a net zero bank by 2050” @Barclays
Wake up Barclays - 2050 is much too late. We’ll be consistently at +1.5C by 2030.

Banks pumped more than $150bn in to companies running ‘carbon bomb’ projects in 2022 theguardian.com/environment/…
Remaining Carbon budget is now tiny.
“Temperature records have been obliterated in 2023, with extreme weather supercharged by global heating hitting lives and livelihoods across the world”

The action drew attention to the Treasury’s funding of new fossil fuel projects abroad in direct contravention of the globally agreed mission to keep global temperature rises below 1.5C.

There's so much disinformation about offshore wind. The biggest threat to whales & our oceans is climate change caused by burning coal oil & gas. Plus offshore oil + gas has risks re seismic testing, drilling, oil spills. Offshore wind, if done right, is part of the solution.

🚨 BREAKING: Norwegian oil giant @Equinor just announced £6.6 billion in profits for the past 3 months.
Thanks to generous tax breaks, UK taxpayers will now effectively cover 91% of the costs for Equinor to develop the Rosebank oil field.
That's around a £3bn tax break for Equinor.
EVs - definitely part of the answer.
“While not having a car has even larger climate benefits, many peoples’ ability to go car-free is limited by their circumstances and the availability of alternatives”
Is it time to make the change to “business as usual”

“Shrinking from climate action will send the wrong message to the world - when the power of our example can show that clean energy means lower bills for families, energy independence for our country, more jobs, & will protect future generations.”

Uh, this is really something else. Look at these latitudinal averages over the last three months...
