This treaty gives much-needed legal support to ocean conservation efforts worldwide. A huge win for our planet 🌿#COP15#OceanTreaty#OceanAction

The UN said a couple of weeks ago staying below 1.5 degrees is now impossible unless we see "a radical transformation of society". So all the papers ran with headlines like this. None ran with "how about we have a radical transformation of society?" Sounds far preferable to me..
So depressing: "The industry warned the proposals would impact billions of pounds of planned #investment, push up #EnergyBills, undermine the UK's efforts to meet its #Climate goals, and have a negligible impact on #FoodSecurity" https://t.co/un4x4DhG9f
It's well within the power of policymakers and governments to accelerate the #GreenTransition and "generate a global #investment boom" into #RenewableEnergy. Stop listening to the giant #FossilFuel PR machine and start making renewables as profitable as fossil fuels.
Suppose it was more profitable to use solar, wind or other renewable sources of energy than fossil fuels, writes the FT's Martin Wolf. Market forces would then drive the transformation of economies in a climate-protecting direction on their own

And so we have the strange and twisted result of #COP27: a fund for #LossAndDamage but a step backwards on #FossilFuels, which will cause MORE LOSS AND MORE DAMAGE https://t.co/sYzCgWRyjJ
Spare a thought for journalists at COP27 now stuck in the hourly 'should I file a story reporting that nothing much is happening or wait for something to happen before filing' cycle.
At the @Climate_Action_#Hydrogen Transition Summit this week we heard from governments, the energy industry, corporates and investors on how to navigate the challenges of scaling up #GreenHydrogen in the transition to #NetZero: https://t.co/ed6BlcDoKw #COP27@airproductsuki
A dark money group is running ads promoting fossil fuels and attacking clean energy in the final weeks before the election.
The PAC has spent more than $1 million to reach voters in 7 swing states.
And someone just sent me documents revealing who's funding it.

@keano81 A recent message on LinkedIn: "Hi Abi, I just noticed that we are both connected to companies called ---. Also, given our background as writers it would be fun to connect some time." Is that an odd message or is it just me?!
So, many MPs and @DefraGovUK have been responding to the claims made about this #AttackOnNature that's been happening since last week.
Have you heard from your MP yet?
Here's what they've said to reassure people so far..
@Natures_Voice are "liars"

This is a great article. While some continue to blame the "extreme green" for the current energy crisis, even those leading the oil & gas industry don't support that view! “The cause of this increase in energy price is not net zero, it is the wholesale price of natural gas.”
“In a striking effort to distort reality, the longer the gas-driven energy crisis goes on, the more critics condemn net-zero", writes @pilitaclark in @FT opinion https://t.co/evuGDmeu91

The EU is leading the way on this and making it easier for investors to avoid funds that don't match their morals. But far more clarity is needed – investors need to know how their money is being spent and this is the first step on a long journey #ImpactInvesting#ESG
