Last week the government launched its Environmental Improvement Plan - what’s our verdict? We are taking the Plan with a huge pinch of salt given plans to weaken protection for our National Parks and watering down Biodiversity Net Gain…

Are government grants for solar PV stifling market solutions and preventing a large swathe of local authorities and public sector organisations from deploying solar renewables?

This is so disheartening to see, the Government’s ‘Build, Baby, Build’ mantra is now a serious threat to England’s wildlife. Really need to question @UKLabour commitment on this issue and urge a rethink.

Excellent piece by @WildlifeTrusts

Swift populations are a huge cause of concern, so why has a £35 intervention on new builds been quietly dropped? Another example of policy conflicts with nature well and truly taking a back seat.

What does a surprise cap-rise and increases to standing charges mean to Labour’s promise of saving us all £300 on our energy bills? Is it a mistake on wider policy of shifting from gas to electricity?

Very insightful piece in rising energy costs in the UK. Often missed point with all the #netzero agenda but there is a growing business case to generate your own energy and become less dependent on that national grid.
