@nzcpe Thanks Robert. The war on cars is really not hotting up like it should.

Why do companies report on their impact when they don't have to? We asked Mike Murphy from @Kokakoorganic https://t.co/O46E0lZyRC

Updating this chart for Q1 2023. On an annual basis, electricity emissions remain at multi-decade lows, while oil, gas, and coal are down 3%, 26%, and 29% resp. from 2019 highs. Total -13% on 2019. [1/2]

@nzcpe Robert, where is that oil burned - cars mostly?

"The incentives are pretty skewed towards permanent pines. Clearly our management strategy needs a lot of work." Finn Ross speaks to @vheeringa about native forests, credits and seaweed! https://t.co/ZSnqRchYRj

Interesting thread.

[Chris Jones @chrisd_jones]

For a while (e.g. https://t.co/1PGUNnk2as), there was a lot of attention on how climate may continue to warm if we stabilise CO2 levels. So-called “committed warming”, or “warming in the pipeline”. The science isn’t changed, but there is a realisation this isn't the best question

No one has worked harder to find an alternative to landfill than the team at @AllHeartNZ Thanks for the inspiring interview @rossunwired and Joe Youssef

Let's talk about the stupidity of more harbour bridges. @paulwinton let's fly on what much cheaper and practical transport options exist that don't cost billions - and save on fuel, gridlock and the climate!

@transparency_a1 Underwater goats! With aqualungs!

Do you understand what happened at the carbon auction this month? Neither! Thank goodness the wonderful @cjhood71 is here to explain it in plain language. Great interview! https://t.co/tEImairefV

An entire article on beachfront properties and not a single reference to climate change. That’s determination. https://t.co/mllYNER12Q

[ThisClimateBusiness @ClimateBizNZ]

Wow. https://t.co/q3Y9h1oFlH

This is news to many I'm sure. Keep promoting this momentum, Jonathan

This is what the world will look like over the next 100 years...if we fail to act. We have no time for business as usual.

No time to waste, no planet B. #ActOnClimate

Spot on.

[Jeff Berardelli @WeatherProf]

It's not easy communicating a technical report like the @IPCC_CH 6th synthesis that came out yesterday. A key is figuring out how to connect the numbers/ abstract concepts with what is relatable to everyone. Here's my 2 min stab at it in today's Berardelli Bonus @WFLA

@nzcpe Hey Robert, how can we get Ralph on the podcast? Can you introduce him to @vheeringa

[ThisClimateBusiness @ClimateBizNZ]

@lancewiggs Be careful out there, lance. It's all fun until someone hits the gas.
