The sooner, the better!🚘

A major opportunity to phase out fossil fueled vehicles is in the hands of EU environment ministers this month.

They must fix the phase-out date to 2028 to keep global heating below 1.5°C.

@packyM We face fewer existential threats as a global village

@JohnReynlds Interesting. Saw one on my walk home to my hotel in Whitechapel a few weeks back. I stopped and we looked each other in the eyes from just a few meters away. It was totally not spooked by me.

For many employees, it can be hard to know where to accelerate climate action in the workplace. If your company leadership is serious about its climate ambition, then they will welcome employees to help them get there and hold them accountable.

Only one country – the Gambia – is taking climate action in line with 1.5C, says @climateactiontr

US, EU, DE, JP "insufficient"
CN, IN, AU "highly insufficient"

Notably, the UK's target is "1.5C compatible", but it lacks policies to match the ambition
