@gemmaleigh_h @CLHLondon @WeTweetTOWN Congratulations Gemma. You'll be a big asset to them.

Wow – there is now more than 1.3GW of subsidy-free solar in the UK, according to @Solarmedialtd @SolarEnergyUK_

Total now growing by 150-200MW per quarter and expected to accelerate as costs continue to fall

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

Is there a big wave of new solar farms coming to the UK?

A hefty 2GW of capacity went into the planning system last year vs 1GW in 2019 and 13GW currently installed

(And given solar subsidies are now ancient history these would, by definition, be subsidy-free if they get built)

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

My new analysis shows UK greenhouse gas emissions are now halfway to net-zero, down 51% on 1990 levels

Yet there's likely to be a rebound after Covid, showing the challenge of eliminating our remaining emissions

Tomorrow, the Home Secretary seeks to give police *more powers* to break up *any* peaceful protests. The plan was to dress it up as a populist pushback against Black Lives Matter. I imagine she’ll crack on even after last night. Please have a read of this.

Dear Twitter friends, we are doing great stuff behind the scenes - our project team, our residents group working with our architects, our board - but we currently have nobody to help us get the word out! Can you help us with social medial, local press and community engagement? 📢

It's actually worth zooming in on the ComRes polling in the Daily Express's coverage...

"The figures contradict previous messages from some parties that the environment is a low priority for voters, and point to a mandate for action."

[Rob Shaw @Rob_Shaw99]

These are some of the reasons why community led housing is so exciting. Great to be part of this #CPalaceCLT

[Community Led Housing London @CLHLondon]

Hear from @CPalaceCLT as they update us on the progress of their project at The Lawns, a site released by @yourcroydon in 2019.

Using a resident-led design process, the #CLT is planning to provide 7 affordable and sustainable homes designed by the community #communityledhousing

BREAKING: HEATHROW VERDICT

I am breaking the court embargo on Heathrow to protest against the injustice of the verdict, which is a betrayal of the younger generation and those on the frontline of the crisis in the UK and around the world:

@kirstygogan @MLiebreich @MLCleaningUp We should find time to catch up!

[CrystalPalaceCLT @CPalaceCLT]

We're going to open applications to join our resident design group soon. They'll work with our architects from August to shape the design of our "eco and as affordable as possible" homes we'll be building at The Lawns. Watch this space!

Thank you @wheatley_martin for organising a resident meeting to discuss traffic measures tonight in the Sylvan Road area. I hope that we are able to deliver a quick solution to return these roads to a pleasant environment. @Stuart_King @uppernorwoodpat @nina_degrads

A record 17% of UK respondents (correctly) say climate change is "entirely" down to human activity

Most think it is partly natural.

(Only 10% say mainly or entirely natural, or not happening at all.)
