What data inputs are required to make EPCs interactive and develop a user interface?
How could these data be collected? What limitations are there to their use?
You've 1 week left to submit your proposal for this research project to answer these questions. https://t.co/1BXJGSkWlY

Every fraction of a degree matters!
To reach #ZeroClimateDisasters we must:
1️⃣stop the creation of new risks by rapidly reducing emissions
2️⃣ accelerate action on climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction

#climatechange action, technological advance, financing opportunities, innovations in place based adaptation, a just transition to net zero we will be covering it all tomorrow #HolyroodClimateSummit #ScotClimateSeries @EdCentreCC @HolyroodEvents @ss

Could greenhouse gas emission criteria be included in Scottish food-based dietary guidelines? Guidelines could include reducing meat, moderating dairy and increasing vegetables, fruits and plant proteins, this international review has found. https://t.co/uJom5UNyjg

Can journalists please stop asking @RishiSunak about net-zero in 2050 and ask instead about how he is going to meet the government-agreed legally-binding 6th carbon budget for 2033-37 with these proposed weaker policies?

If ever you need reminding of the #ClimateEmergency and how we must take strides forward, visit the #RisingTide exhibition at the national museam in #Edinburgh #inspiring #emotional #powerful https://t.co/gHBx7JzurE

[Rt Hon Lord Alok Sharma @AlokSharma_RDG]

Concerned about fracturing of UK political consensus on climate action

Chopping and changing policies creates uncertainty for businesses and the public

Ultimately this makes it more difficult to attract investment and pushes up costs for consumers

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

The governments lack of leadership and commitment to address climate breakdown is ‘reckless and irresponsible’ . That’s why tonight at 9pm on @Channel4 I ask the question ‘Is it time to break the law?’ to protect the future of life on earth . . .

[Kate Donovan @Kate_DRR]

Scrapping the steps of progress towards climate action when we need giant creative leaps. I am emotional about #climatechange. When people are dying and our vital biodiversity is destroyed from changing climate, I think we should be getting emotional.

[Climate Change Committee @theCCCuk]

The UK Government has announced a new approach to reaching Net Zero. The CCC has issued its response.
