Farming CO2 out of the air into soil, by enhancing the power of photosynthesis.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf @JEPnews @sibcy2 As Minister entrusted with safeguarding environment—a key criterion of your role—prioritizing circular economies and economic gain over environmental protection raised concerns. eg’s using plasterboard in compost and supporting wind farms suggest capitalism trump eco-protection.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf A sobering reminder of the impact of ocean wind turbines on vital ecosystem services and biodiversity, alongside the issue of engineering waste. Let's prioritize a sustainable approach to energy. Human energy should be harmonized with, not disrupt, the environment we inhabit.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@MaxandrewsJ Who's accountable for cleaning up engineering waste at end-of-life? And who takes charge of ecosystem regeneration? These are pressing questions left unanswered. It's time to address them head-on instead of burying our heads in the sand with politics as usual.

@mailolstar Thank you.

@lyndonfarnham @SamMezecJsy @Ian_Gorst @lyndsayfeltham @AndyJehan @ElaineMillarJsy @deputyrobward @CarolynLabey Hoping to have a COM that builds sustainability/ resilience into its decision making process by protecting soil health, biodiversity, and local supply chains.

@JonathanRenouf @lisanoel1968 @JEPnews Opposing the call for Paris Aligned Net Zero, and rejecting verified CO2e removals paid for under #CSRD, hindering local soil health and biodiversity, contradicts the climate action you've been advocating for. A different form of climate denial you're unintentionally perpetuating

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf @JEPnews Denialism wears many masks. Voting against Rob Ward's proposal to push fracking and oil companies toward Paris-aligned net zero, while rejecting soil carbon sequestration through composting used plasterboard under the guise of circular economy benefits, is = anti climate science

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf Respectfully, the commodification of nature concerns me. The biosecurity risks associated with marine turbines are too significant to justify their construction. While I acknowledge the importance of green energy, I firmly believe that biodiversity is essential for our existence.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf I don’t think the ecological impacts of offshore turbines can be justified, happy to be scientifically proved wrong.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf @jellsmoor Navigating climate responsibility is like sailing against the wind for countries not fully aligned with Paris. Progress may be slow, but every positive change contributes to a more sustainable global course.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@ITVChannelTV In the era of climate burning, the construction industry's significant carbon footprint demands urgent action—reduce, avoid, and remove emissions. While legal hurdles impede nature's defence. A balance between industry demands and ecological preservation is crucial.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf A more effective alternative to the current model, often incorrectly labeled as zero carbon. Concerned that biodiversity and life cycle assessments may be overlooked. Excited to explore a cost analysis using regeneratively grown biomass for power generation. #SustainableFuture

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf @jerseyrobins In the realm of sustainability, anything that reduces or avoids commissioning and decommissioning carbon responsibilities is undoubtedly a positive step. I'm eager to explore strategies for removing residual carbon to bolster the credibility of the net-zero claim.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf Protecting above-ground biomass should be complemented by protecting root systems. Is there any root protection for significant trees?

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@JonathanRenouf Barcelona's stadium rebuild was rejected due to a lack of assurance on reaching net zero by 2050. To align with global trends, a resubmission should include a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the rebuild.

Following Jersey’s Nature Conference will Jersey commit to being #naturepositive 2030?

@deputyrobward Divesting from fossil fuels is essential, knowing the damage a 3C planet would bring on us, I question the political integrity of those that resist.

[Glyn Mitchell @GlynMit]

@leecarps @JonathanRenouf @hilaryjeune Oh dear! when 2030 is a key date in CSDR reporting to move into CO2e removal phase, to prevent the likelihood of a 3C rise in temps, resulting in more days in Jersey exceeding 35c and a 70% increase in 1 in 100 year storms (IPCC) already influencing food and water security.
