We cannot afford another year of inaction while our planet is heading towards total climate chaos. @ClimateEnvoy and @BasEickhout we need to phase out ALL fossil fuels now.

Heading home from #ukphc22 and very excited to see the consultation open this week on the proposed Leeds local plan. Proposal that major developments will need to be operational #netzero and 15kWh/m2.year space heating demand. Looks good for more #passivhaus coming to Leeds.

Great to be at #UKPHC22 today reconnecting with others in the UK #passivhaus community in real life

Have you seen The Walkbook? - it is a wonderful free resource created by @livingstreets during the #WalkCreate gathering https://t.co/W9vUe3smWx

COP26 was 6 months ago 📅

Since then @borisjohnson's government has failed to deliver on climate promises.

The government is hitting snooze on climate with a weak Net Zero strategy, but we can’t wait ⏰ So @friends_earth are suing them.

@TheSocBiz Cheer up Rob😀. Have to agree with you, but I don't want to "like" it.

@ConnectingLeeds I've just been knocked off my bike again (the third time now) by a car driver turning left across the cycle lane from Regent St onto Skinner Ln. You've promised to try and improve this junction, but what is it going to take before you act to protect cyclists?

Plastic can only be recycled a limited number of times. That's why @BorisJohnson the only solution to fix our plastic crisis is to cut the UK's single-use plastic by 50% by 2025 #Wasteminster

.@ZacGoldsmith will you help to #ReforestEngland by setting a long-term tree cover target? Only by setting a target and tracking progress to plant the right trees in the right places can this be effective in addressing climate change and biodiversity.

@WaxwingEnergy @passivhausnews @MoreOurselves @EcoVertSol @ecominimalnick Love it. A great demonstration that these are skills that everyone in the industry should be able to learn.
