@Mervyn_Carter We find our feed is now full of right wingers & climate deniers rather than the useful stuff & science/policy commentary that used to be much more visible. X is trying to force feed us the poor quality garbage & culture wars.
The face of the climate crisis in 4K.
Make no mistake: This will be on your doorstep. That's because fossil fuel CEOs are isolated from climate change, tucked away in air-conditioned compounds.
It's time to stand up to those polluters and end fossil fuel extraction.
As I and other scientists have estimated +20 m is the level of committed sea level rise (SLR) at this level of CO2. That much SLR will take time. Here's that map, with most of the impacts around the North Sea and Denmark according to @ClimateCentral https://t.co/HCt7KHgghK
Today in the King’s speech the priorities were outlined for this parliamentary term – nature was not mentioned once .
We need this new government to commit to restoring nature in their first 100 days in office , get involved at https://t.co/4Mc5c5F8hC
I gave Keir Starmer a copy of Doughnut Economics just 10 days before he became Labour Party Leader. So will the book make it onto his bookshelves in Number 10? More importantly: will policies for a regenerative & distributive UK become real under this government?...
We have a new government!
Now is the time to make change happen and with people like you pushing our politicians to show real dedication, we could make this parliament the climate parliament 🌏
Here are five climate wins we're calling for…
“Market forces not enough to halt climate change” by @ft writer @martinwolf_ https://t.co/HVFjx03bbp Two concerns with the piece:
1) it’s taken till 2024 to realise this! 2) simplistic dismissal of degrowth is as dangerous as the “market forces“ nonsense he recently believed in.
Climate crisis & depletion of nature barely mentioned by the two main parties in this general election campaign. Whereas ‘the boats’ and who will charge more or less taxation have been the main focus 😞
This election's conspiracy of silence on climate & nature is deeply damaging - and totally out of step with the public. My reflections on 14 years in which the environment became a top priority for voters, despite timidity & roll backs from other parties https://t.co/rdzFSGCHfo
Unfortunately, last night’s heavy rain, combined with runoff from melting snow has led to catastrophic flooding in some locations across the French and Swiss Alps. This is aerial footage from La Bérarde in the Massif des Écrins, France. Credit: Frédi Meignan
