@RestIsPolitics Given the many pressing issues we face globally, I’d love to shift gears and talk about something close to many fans' hearts: When do you think Burnley will make their return to the top flight? It seems to be the real elephant in the room for football supporters!

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

Efficiency is important, but systemic change is essential. Embedding climate and clean economy goals into the RIO’s mandate will be critical to ensuring clean tech innovation is supported by the right regulatory framework.

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

It's great to see the Science Secretary launch the new Regulatory Innovation Office to accelerate access to emerging technologies.

While this is a positive step forward, it’s worth noting the limited emphasis on climate and the clean economy in the Office’s priorities.

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

Technologies like engineering biology, space innovations, AI in healthcare, and autonomous tech will undoubtedly improve efficiency and services, but they may not significantly "shift the dial" on the climate crisis—the most pressing challenge we face.

[Cleantech for Europe @cleantechforeu]

Welcome back to the bi-weekly #CleanTechEUthread! 🧵

This Monday, Mario #Draghi unveiled his long-awaited report on The Future of European Competitiveness. In the thread below we dive into how the report’s recommendations could impact Europe’s cleantech community!

Please could any heat pump experts explain to me what should be included in a heat loss assessment and what to look out for? Had a company round to size one up for us (landed on an 8.5kw system) but didn’t get much of an impression they were measuring a lot…

This is a joke ITV.

People in this country are on their bloody knees and you are giving them 45 seconds.

45 seconds to hold Sunak to account for his party destroying our country.

45 seconds for Starmer to set out a different path.

An absolute farce #ITVDebate

New @IPPR report delves into less explored factors that impact retrofit decisions - cost is obvious, but the more nuanced is social relations, such as who you know/ how well you know them. These play a major influencing role in how people spend their money on home retrofit 🏘️⚡️⬇️

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

At the launch of @UKGBC 's much needed Retrofit Investment Calculator Tool, @CSkidmoreUK remarks the urgent need to insulate our homes, at a time where energy security is of paramount importance. Also good to see GBIS launched today - let's hope it delivers...

[Martin Callanan @MartinCallanan]

This morning I launched our £1bn Great British Insulation Scheme. This will offer energy efficiency upgrades to more than 300,000 homes - helping those that need it most save hundreds on bills, by heating their homes for less

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

Do you understand now…?? Please😭

[Charlie Garner @CharlieGarner20]

Great to be involved in this project on the heating and insulation side. Huge props to my wonderful colleagues on pushing this through over a challenging period #greengrowth

[CBI @CBItweets]

The UK needs to accelerate action on green growth measures if we want to realise our potential & stand firm with international competitors.

Our new 'Going for Green' report outlines those measures that could bring a £37-57bn boost to our GDP by 2030 🔗 https://t.co/CAxcEsXCVA

@colmbritchfield Yep - it goes hard. Roll on next season 👹
