The weeds and flies are enjoying this unnaturally warm October... it's a portent of things to come to us all @RishiSunak if the UK doesn't say goodbye to oily money

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

It shouldn't be this warm in October. @RishiSunak when are you going to step up and stop our headlong descent into climate chaos?

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

Why isn't the Big One peaceful climate protest in London on the BBC news website? (Correct me if I'm wrong and it's just hidden somewhere)

[Mark Coleman @hellomarkC]

I am Harvey, Mark’s son, writing to tell you that yesterday he was sentenced to 5 weeks. He is now in Thameside prison.

The sentence was for public nuisance. He sat on the road in the City of London.

This is possibly the greatest life-hack ever: Ulrika Jonsson cooks and freezes her Christmas dinner months in advance. Why have we never done this???

[Greenpeace UK @GreenpeaceUK]

Our prediction for the World Cup final is WE ARE IN A CLIMATE CRISIS AND THE UK GOVERNMENT IS ACTIVELY APPROVING 130 NEW OIL AND GAS LICENCES IN THE NORTH SEA.

I asked our MP Jeremy Wright to end Govt support for fossil fuels and this is what he said:

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

Find out if your bank is funding fossil fuels:

[The Co-operative Bank UK @CooperativeBank]

It's time to withdraw from banks that fund the climate crisis.

We need to protect the planet and it starts with holding your bank to account.

Find out how ethical your bank is with independent organisation Bank Green: https://t.co/bqABlXSwm7

There is no need to dress up in scary masks to frighten yourself
Just look outside - our greatest nightmare is just beginning - it may feel great even comfortable - T shirt weather in late October -12°C-16°C above normal- but its signifies a shift into a hostile climate world

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

So very grateful that there are people willing to stand up for my children's children's future. Thank you

[Scientist Rebellion @ScientistRebel1]

Last days all over the world, there were actions in support of the coalition actions in Germany. Rebels from Tanzania did a protest demanding debt cancelation last Sunday. The climate crisis is global and so it demands of climate justice now!

@trussliz will the Government honour its #COP26 global climate commitments and get our nation off #FossilFuels fast??

[Dr Ruth Valerio @ruthvalerio]

To everyone feeling depressed & overwhelmed from #FrozenPlanet2 you can respond by doing two positive things:
1 Contact @trussliz & demand our government honours its #COP26 global climate commitments & gets us off #FossilFuels fast
2 Take one step to reduce your own energy usage

@PregnantScrewed I work a 60hr week minimum, plus every night 'on call', for a total £156.66/week. We need more than just an uprate in line with inflation

RT if you want a wind farm where you live.

@nikmyersmusic Plum cordial? Wine?

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

Is there a way we can bottle this heat and use it in 6 months' time??

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

@jim_dimmock @milkandmore Thanks!

[Eleanor Holdsworth @holdseleanor]

We found this in a bottle of milk delivered to our doorstep. @milkandmore customer services say they're investigating, but in the meantime, can any dairy farmers tell us what it is and whether we should worry that we drank some of the milk?
