We love flying, but hate climate change. Join our passenger-led movement to help airlines leave fossil fuels behind

A doubling of jet fuel prices does tend to sharpen minds on whether that work trip or holiday is truly essential

South Korea's President on energy crisis: 'It’s a situation so serious that even I can’t sleep. South Korea needs to transition to renewable energy quickly. If we rely on fossil energy, the future will be extremely risky.' https://t.co/dGGthFsRtB

🚨 BREAKING: The European Commission has urged people to work from home, drive and fly less, and for EU countries to urgently roll out renewables, as it warned of a prolonged energy crisis as a result of the conflict in the Gulf.

The energy crisis caused by the war in Iran is strengthening the case for electric vehicles.

The oil price shock drives EV demand in Asia.

WOW. Just in the last two weeks, BYD showrooms around the world are seeing a surge in customer demand from people who are deciding that now is the time to switch to EVS, with oil prices so high. https://t.co/PpUAjUOOTX

“Although President Donald Trump says he has ‘destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military Capability’, the 0% that remains is playing havoc with the global economy.”

@EdConwaySky Great analysis Ed, but please work on your posture!

Its' terrible, slumping like that could lead to long-term back problems, please stand up straight

IEA calls for flying less to weather energy crisis.

I think this should be led by the wealthiest, most frequent flyers and corporate bookers of business trips...

Iran's actions are decolonising the region from the very Western hegemony that the Weapondollar-Petrodollar coalition was built to uphold

@SBarrettBar Actually takes a huge amount of guts to stand up to Trump.

And btw, the large majority of Brits don't want to get involved in Israel's war, as this is not in our country's interests.

[Fliers for Climate Action ✈️ @FlyersFfca]

@DPJHodges Most Brits think you're wrong - large majority *against* UK involvement in someone else's war.

If you think getting involved IS in our interests, you have to explain why - not just petulantly attack the character of the sensible majority in this country.

@NJ_Timothy Standing up to Trump takes a lot of backbone actually

Bending over to Trump at each turn is not in the national interest mate.

[Fliers for Climate Action ✈️ @FlyersFfca]

When media says Cyprus base hit by "Iranian drone strike", most readers will understand that means Iran launched it.

But we don't know that.

All we know at this stage is that it was a "Shahed-style" drone

Anyone who wants the UK to enter this war could have launched it.

Why is Keir Starmer utterly incapable of saying no to Donald Trump?

Our national security requires us not to be dragged into illegal wars.

The Prime Minister is making us less safe. Did we learn nothing from Iraq?

[Fliers for Climate Action ✈️ @FlyersFfca]

@COLRICHARDKEMP Let's keep cool heads in this situation shall we?

The definition of terrorism is targeting civilians, not "troops", so you're contradicting yourself in a rage.

Have a cup of tea, take deep breaths, all becomes clearer.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

The majority of people in this country do not want us to be involved in this war.

Keir Starmer of a few years ago wouldn't have supported this war.

The only reason he does now is he will do anything Donald Trump wants - and it makes us all less safe.

@EricLDaugh A mill is for grinding something, like grains into flour.

A turbine is something that turns mechanical motion into electricity.

If you can't tell the difference between a windmill, and a wind turbine, maybe you are one of the "stupid people"?

Which airline is doing the best on cutting its emissions?

@bundeskanzler Dragging back Europe's car industry to help laggards is not leading from the centre.
