Residents of Dean have erected placards protesting against the arrival of American vice-president J.D. Vance in the tiny West Oxfordshire village. They say they are “extremely angry” but the police presence which has sealed off the village has made a “proper protest” impossible.

@ed_hawkins @UniofReading #ShowYourStripes day with @ed_hawkins' warming stripes for the UK.

[Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins]

BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day!

These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years.

Q. What do @CSkidmoreUK, @XRebellionUK, and @BizDeclares all have in common?

A. They all agree that new oil licenses undermine the UK’s #NetZero ambitions, #energysecurity, #climategoals, & industry itself.

For #EarthDay the biodiversity stripes have a new home linked to @ed_hawkins climate warming stripes, because the Earth faces two environmental challenges. Take a look and #ShowYourStripes: https://t.co/QejD0hjvy8

As of about 7pm on Sunday evening, where is the coverage (other than one buried article) on #TheBigOne in London? Here is a screen recording of the #BBC homepage.

@MattMcGrathBBC @BBCJustinR
Where are you? This is not a small group of fringe activists. 👇

[Siobhann @ManselPleydell]

Where’s the detailed coverage of the breadth & depth of people & organisations who have joined #TheBigOne @XRebellionUK to get their voices heard. @BBCNews? @thetimes? @guardian? This feels like a #mediablackout at a time when citizens & business need the media most.

[Siobhann @ManselPleydell]

350 business leaders descended on the Dept For #EnergySecurity & #NetZero on Friday as part of the #BigOne with #XR with one simple message - cease licensing of new #fossilfuels. @GOVUK needs to create the conditions for businesses to create a clean, green, net zero future.👇

[Matt Golding 💚🌎 @mattgolding]

We're powerful together💪 Friday & all weekend business leaders are joining thousands on the streets to call for an end to fossil fuel licensing to unlock a thriving future. We @Rubber_Republic were there with @BizDeclares & you can hear our message to government here 👉

Is this the year that climate activism goes main stream? I am heartened by the huge support for @XRebellionUK #TheBigOne, especially from the business community @BizDeclares @FashionDeclares among others. I’m joining, representing me and @wemakeitgood. Who’s going?

[Siobhann @ManselPleydell]

🧵It's only Wednesday and I feel like the past couple of days have been a deep reminder of why, at @wemakeitgood , we are working hard to make change as simple as possible in a complex world; here’s why 👇

Our food systems & we are dependent upon a thriving abundance of nature. As a child I can recount at least 70% more biodiversity in my childhood rivers of Mid Wales only 45 years ago. @WalesLink @LGSpace

And if the answer is YES to that final question as yourself; 'how can you transition to a more sustainable business model?'.
Here's the link to the report

🧵@IpsosUK ask an arresting question in their new Global Trends Report 👉 'In a world whose existence is threatened and where the future is uncertain, does every business have the right to exist?'

This trend report is about 'New World Disorder' & the polycrises we face. 👇

Key prompts from @IpsosUK on how brands can navigate 👇
🧐 Do you truly know what your consumers value – does that trump what shareholders value?
🧐 Does your biz model serve stakeholders or society?
🧐 Is your biz defined by next-quarter returns instead of long-term growth?

Time for the Government to fall in love with public transport. We’re asking the Chancellor to prioritise public transport in the #SpringStatement. This would bring so many benefits including cleaner air.

Should nature be given a monetary value? I'm looking forward to moderating this conversation between Bob Costanza & Erik Gomez Baggethun - two very thoughtful people who both know how to respectfully disagree. Join us in person or online, Friday 17 Feb. https://t.co/7JcHXvxvkt
