It's #CleanAirDay 💨

Clean air is vital for our health and the planet's.

Turning off your engine when you stop saves money and fuel, but we also need to push for cheaper, more reliable public transport and safe, logical walking and cycling options we will use!

Read our comments on today's Scottish greenhouse gas emissions data on @BBCScotlandNews

"These numbers are stark confirmation that action taken by Scottish Ministers to tackle climate breakdown has been nowhere near strong enough or fast enough."

Scotland's greenhouse gas emissions fall slightly as progress slows https://t.co/eBJPWJhJZw

[Future Economy Scotland @FutureEconScot]

📉 Scotland's latest greenhouse gas statistics are out today.

Emissions fell by just 1% in 2024 - one of the smallest annual reductions on record.

Scotland is still reducing emissions, but progress has slowed sharply just as the hardest part of the net zero transition begins.

Check out the campaign to #makegreenfair with SCCS member @FuelPovAction 🍃⚖️🔥

Clean, green renewables and more energy efficient homes shouldn't profit the few at the expense of the many already struggling to pay their bills.

#energybills #climatechange #scotland

[Fuel Poverty Action @FuelPovAction]

📈 On July 1st, energy bills will spike by over £200 - more money handed to energy firms.

🟩 This government should #MakeGreenFair to guarantee #EnergyForAll

📢 Let’s make our voices heard!

Stop Climate Chaos Scotland are urging @ScotGov to act on making homes more energy efficient, to lower people's bills and cut greenhouse emissions.

The introduction of a Heat in Buildings Bill within the first year would be a good start.

If #ItsScotlandsEnergy, prove it!

[Future Economy Scotland @FutureEconScot]

If we want a fairer and greener Scotland, we must be honest about how we pay for it.

As members of #TaxJusticeScotland, we’re urging the First Minister to use the powers he has to tax wealth more fairly.

A local community group has hit out at plans for a huge 600MW data centre that would be larger than the Scottish village it neighbours 👇

[Friends of the Earth Scotland 🌎 @FoEScot]

Household energy bills are being driven upwards by the insatiable greed of energy companies. 📈

They are profiteering from the war in Iran. 🤑

People in Scotland are paying for the failure of politicians here to transition our energy system away from fossil fuels. 🛢️🔥

[Stop Climate Chaos Scotland @sccscot]

If 'it's Scotland's energy', prove it!

Think today's @ofgem price cap announcement is unfair?

By combining more clean, renewable and locally produced electricity with better-insulated homes, governments could make energy more affordable, greener, and more resilient to global shocks.

#makegreenfair @FuelPovAction

[Fuel Poverty Action @FuelPovAction]

Today's Ofgem price cap is a rip-off, allowing energy firms to make huge profits whilst we suffer.

Fossil fuels are leaving us exposed to price hikes.

And the benefits of cheap-to-produce renewables must be passed back to us.

Last week, @RSGS_CEO, chair of SCCS, wrote to the newly re-appointed First Minister @JohnSwinney, to re-emphasise the critical steps that must be taken for his government to create a fairer, healthier, greener Scotland in 2026:

1/ A new report has put a number on what Reform UK's climate policy rollback would actually cost: nearly 500,000 jobs destroyed within 3 years.

That's comparable to almost every teacher in the UK losing their job.

Here's what the research with @priceofoil found 👇
