Immigration is not the reason that you can’t get a hospital appointment, it’s the reason you can get one.
Please retweet for all the people who can’t seem to grasp that.
@KathrynPorter26@haugejostein But, it's mostly to produce products for the west. If you add those carbon emissions, per capita wise West would be massively polluting especially the USA.
@rural_va_guy@haugejostein Per capita wise Americans pollute the most plus western world has essentially exported the manufacturing to China. So, we need to add all those carbon emissions to the western world and not China.
@energygovuk Just like how Octopus is already doing but in a bigger scale. People can charge their EVs and run appliances at home to soak up all the renewable energy. Companies like Ecoflow already have smart home batteries which can store those excess electricity too.
@Ed_Miliband Great but we need balcony solar at the earliest ideally before summer starts. Thousands in Germany are saving on electricity every year.
We need subsidy for even plug in solar and battery storage.
@2147mill One is debt and another is capital you invest. For most people after paying rent not much is left to invest. And yes owning house means you have more expenses such as maintenance but also capital appreciation. You can always sell and move to a small accommodation if needed.
@Keir_Starmer Plus the real metric we need is GDP per capita. GDP will grow if we just add more people in an economy not necessarily individual person is getting wealthier. And also the wealth inequality is getting worse with time.
@Keir_Starmer More than 9 million people aged 16 to 64 in the UK are classed as economically inactive, meaning they are not actively looking for work or available to start a job.
What is being done to bring them into workforce or education or training?
@bypawan84@ryanburge Do you even read your comments before posting? I am giving you scientifically accurate information that India was not rich by human development index and that India still has a huge journey ahead. We need to learn from the countries like China who have come a long way.
1. More than 9 million people aged 16 to 64 in the UK are classed as economically inactive, meaning they are not actively looking for work or available to start a job.
2. This includes 2.9 million people aged 16 to 24, with almost a million young people not in education, employment or training, a 26% increase from pre-pandemic levels.
@janrosenow We need affordable air to air heat pumps which can be easily fixed in flats. Most rental flats I have stayed were electric heating only and it's so expensive. Having just a balcony mounted air to air system would save a lot of money and green house emissions.
@bypawan84@ryanburge The reason we are still poor is because of the government and the choices Indians made and are making in electing them. China was poorer than us once and they are much ahead now.
@bypawan84@ryanburge You are just talking like an idiot. Go read what the life expectancy Indians had few centuries ago. We are living double of that now. Yes, India probably had a major share of world's GDP once and colonisation made us poorer.
@AllumBokhari@BarackObama Even without the export "discount," the average person in the U.S. still has a carbon footprint nearly twice as large as the average person in China.
@BarackObama This isn't about energy security—it’s a clear ROI for donors. By trading public health for industry profits, the administration is sabotaging our environmental future for short-term political and economic gain. The guardrails are off.
@PattyFranWeber@BarackObama China is burning fossil fuels because western countries want cheap items to fuel their materialistic life. But, to note that China is rapidly electrifying everything from cars to trains. They are already building massive renewable energy infrastructure.
