Have you seen a massive uptick in offensive (and potentially illegal) content on here in the last year? I certainly have - that's why we're taking on X.

[Good Law Project @GoodLawProject]

X is not above the law.

The toy of the world’s richest man won’t take down illegal posts on X – but no-one’s above the law.

“This is monumentally unfair to trans people, the community most closely affected by the decision, but it’s not just the unfairness. The decision to shut out from the hearing the people most closely affected made the decision weaker.”

Have been astounded by the persistence and bravery of the women impacted and similarly astounded by LSE's failure. More to follow! https://t.co/mjZNg7l1Nv

Absolutely bonkers… Carbon capture is a waste of time and money - everyone knows… except the government? How can taxpayers be liable up to £6bn for a technology with such a long history of failure…?

We should be putting £££ into renewables, not the pockets of fossil fuels companies for their failed pollution projects…

How on earth did British taxpayers end up on the hook for the possible failure of this scheme at planning - hard to understand.

A massive win 🌟

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

💥A win for the climate 💥

The UK has announced its exit from the Energy Charter Treaty. With the EU also preparing to leave this damaging agreement, the UK's exit is another major victory for climate action.

Congratulations to all the organisations that made this happen.

BREAKING: We’re supporting legal action against Coca-Cola, Nestlé and Danone for misleading claims about recycling.

With @ecos_standard, we’re supporting @BEUC in filing an external alert to the EU Commission. #deplastify

Fantastic to see this family of beavers being released into the wild in West London today.

Projects like this, supported by my Rewild Fund, will help combat the impact of the climate crisis & improve our ecosystem and create a fairer, greener city for Londoners.

Help us save UK clean air laws!

The UK Gov is planning to axe important clean air laws at the end of the year as part of the #REUL Act. This will severely weaken vital air quality protections.

We’re asking you to urge your MP to save these laws: https://t.co/zhhqHoncaw

BREAKING: we’re taking the UK Govt back to court.

Last year the court ruled that the Govt needed to rewrite its inadequate net zero strategy. But it's still not good enough, so we’re challenging it again with @friends_earth & @GoodLawProject

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

BREAKING: Labelling fossil gas as ‘green’ is as absurd as it is unlawful. Today, we and @WWFEU, @bund_net and @transenv are taking the EU to court to stop the greenwashing. https://t.co/3LiX30XRwt

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

The Dieselgate scandal is far from over. An estimated 19 million diesel cars and vans still on roads across the UK and EU are likely to use illegal emissions tech. Our lawyer Katie Nield talks to @Channel4News about our mission to get this fixed. https://t.co/oNCuyACTpA

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

Last year, we announced the start of legal action against Shell’s Board of Directors, for failing to move away from fossil fuels fast enough.

And now, we’re going to court. Read more: https://t.co/IMPaFGhX7g

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

A bill that could remove longstanding legal protections is back in UK parliament today.

If it passes, thousands of laws that protect water, nature, employment rights & more could be on the chopping block – so we’re calling for it to be dropped entirely: https://t.co/3KbFaYg9YJ

[India Bourke @india_bourke]

Whether it is wild-camping or the wingbeat of a pipistrelle bat, if something's been reduced to only one instance it is easier for those in power to let it slip into oblivion entirely.
