New oil & gas fields like Jackdaw will push us closer to parts of our world becoming uninhabitable.

When renewable energy is cleaner, cheaper, and more reliable - we don't need oil & gas!

Will you, @craig4nwarks, commit to #StopJackdaw ?🚫🛢️

[Kate Brown @Portobello_Toad]

The overwhelming scientific consensus is crystal clear: for a liveable climate, we can’t have any new oil, gas or coal projects.

Will you, @Wera_Hobhouse, help to end our reliance on oil and gas and commit to #StopJackdaw ? 🚫🛢️

[Kate Brown @Portobello_Toad]

New fields like Jackdaw delay a fast & fair transition away from oil & gas when we could secure our future with renewables.

Will you, @AnneMcLaughlin, stand up to the oil & gas executives that have delayed real action for decades and commit to #StopJackdaw? 🚫🛢️

[Kate Brown @Portobello_Toad]

New oil & gas fields like Jackdaw do nothing but generate massive profits for Shell and its shareholders.

Our climate should not be for sale!

Will you, @AnneMarieMorris, stand up to Shell and commit to #StopJackdaw ? 🚫🛢️

[Kate Brown @Portobello_Toad]

Credible #ClimateAction is incompatible with opening up new oil & gas fields.

@Conservatives MPs need to stop dithering & delaying climate action.

@jacobyoungmp, will you do what's needed and oppose the Cambo oil field? 📢 #StopCambo https://t.co/qUKpw573T7

How can UK gov even consider opening the huge new Cambo oil field after claiming to keep 1.5 alive at #COP26?

It will create pollution equal to 18 coal-fired power plants 🏭🏭

🛑 @AndrewRosindell please #StopCambo. Choose the right side of history. https://t.co/qUKpw573T7

I just wrote to my MP asking them to call on @BorisJohnson to #StopCambo and prioritise a #JustTransition. Write your own here: https://t.co/UbaCEd3pcF

Finding it increasingly hard to go on like nothing is wrong, like the tipping points weren't passed 20 years ago.

The Government Just Took Away YOUR FREEDOM @GeorgeMonbiot

[Prof Julia Steinberger @JKSteinberger]

I have this nagging feeling that the imminent collapse of the Amazon forest, the rapid speeding up of Thwaites Antarctic glacier on its way to drowning all coastal areas and the disrupted pattern of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation should be bigger news, somehow.

[Kate Brown @Portobello_Toad]

It's not often that I feel so truly empowered by a book, but this one has blown my brain wide open. If only the likes of Sylvia Townsend-Warner had one of these on her bedside table.

I cannot wait for this to be published in Jan. Going to wear a trench coat full of 'em for maximum selling capacity at the bookshop.
