Many of the UK's Water companies are putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action. Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: https://t.co/5E7Hy3ar7z via @38degrees

While we're hooked on oil & gas we're vulnerable to price shocks caused by a rogue US president.

It doesn't have to be like this.

Invest in renewables, insulate our homes, cut the cost of living.

Water temperatures around Australia's Great Barrier Reef were the warmest they've been in over 400 years this year, according to new research.

Scientists say the reef is facing "catastrophic damage."

No time to waste. #ActOnClimate

Vote Green to stop Reform in Gorton and Denton.

That's the recommendation of all tactical voting sites.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Final weekend. One last push.

This is about whether you want local plumber Hannah Spencer or the extreme Reform candidate.

It's hope vs hate.

It's Greens vs Reform.

Hope can win.

Portugal shut down their last remaining coal fired power plant and is fostering a renewable energy revolution. They could be completely renewable by 2040 if not sooner. It can be done.

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate
