Ride to rewild

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

So a PM elected by <1% of the UK population, tells an unelected head of state (in top 1% of emitters globally) not to fly to Egypt for COP27, to tell other countries (of which only 13% are ‘full democracies’) to reduce emissions

@Peters_Glen It's about control - the bullet in your analogy can be made in a less destructive (but more costly) way ie blue hydrogen - whereas the gun&trigger just have to deal with the bullet that's available

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@goldstandard @Bankfieldbecky @WCumbriaMining But how can you ensure this is the case if you don’t control who can buy your credits? Surely this is the bedrock of a robust market?

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

Yeah but no

Trying to get head around the intersection of @KateRaworth's #doughnuteconomics & @marjorie_kelly's 'Owning Our Future'

Top right quadrant needs to flourish to make this new economy a reality

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@GeraintThomas86 G how did you get drawn into this!? Using your influence to promote a 2.5 tonne truck as climate change starts to bite? You are so much better than this

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

Oh yeah...

[Do Nation @The_DoNation]

This is SUPER news... 😃

'Climate Cycle to COP', anyone?

*puts thinking cap on*...

(@mad_challenges @2050ClimateGrp @climatekm @1010 - what do you think?)

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@CarbonBubble @TimBuckleyIEEFA @WoodMackenzie Good news but 'cost' doesn't equate to 'value'. A better comparison would be coal Vs solar+storage

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@GWRHelp - loving your new trains but please can you put some signs on the outside to show where the bike spaces are so we can speed up boarding?

@CartoonRalph business unusual

@Jan_Vrins @ehpabrussels @Sustainable2050 @GretaThunberg @NavigantEnergy What do the shareholders do with their increased 'value'? Spend it in a carbon neutral way, or more likely spend it on things that will increase emissions!?

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

Excellent talk by @lorddeben tonight "stop 'Tory' this and 'Green' that... the less party political we are, the more effective we are".

@OxClimateSoc you rock

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@EmergeConf - is Emerge happening this year and if so when?
@SkollCentre

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

One week, two meetings - a worldview apart. The history books will remember us as The Age of Dissonance, whose international institutions were simply unable to connect ecology and economy.

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

It’s showtime! Puppets take on Economic Man.

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

"As long as government policies emphasize growing GDP as a national priority, and as long as transnational corporations relentlessly pursue greater shareholder returns by ransacking the earth, we will continue accelerating toward global catastrophe."

[Jeremy Lent @JeremyRLent]

We need to restructure the fundamentals of our global system to prioritize the health of living systems over short-term wealth production.

[Oxford Bike Week @OxfordBikeWeek]

Cycling peeps in #Oxford. Note these dates in your diary. Oxford Bike Week is 9-17 June this year. Planning has already started 🚴‍♀️🚲📝

[Broken Spoke Bike Co-op @BrokenSpokeCoop]

Stationary buses as far as the eyes can see this mrng...Poor drivers...imagine if they could enjoy the sun as cycle trainers instead!

[Climate Kilometre @climatekm]

@OxfordCity @OxfordshireCC @BrokenSpokeCoop @TheOxfordMail OK thanks. Seems odd to me that the City Council doesn't have jurisdiction over this and worries me that you're happy to pass the buck
