Scrapping the Climate Change Act would be a reckless and indefensible move, undermining the UK’s green economy and damaging our global credibility at a time of escalating climate risks.

Heat & very dry air that used to be rare, now very common in Spain & Portugal, putting huge strain on EU firefighting resources - at 1.3C global warming.

🥶 Cool air, hot problem 🥵

Most cars & buses use F-gases to stay cool - but these chemicals make up over 50% of EU PFAS emissions.

They break down into TFA, a tiny, nearly impossible-to-remove pollutant that contaminates water and ecosystems.

That’s a wrap on #OEWG47 of the #MontrealProtocol🌍 Heated debates over funding, PFAS and TFA pollution and feedstock chemicals. Lacklustre attention to reforming the institutions of the Montreal Protocol to make the best treaty even better. Lots to do before #MOP37 #HFCphasedown #Cooling #OzoneLayer

We regret the EU Commission's last-minute withdrawal of the #GreenClaims Directive, which was essential to stop #greenwashing.

This law would have protected Europeans from greenwashing and ensured companies back up their "green", "eco-friendly", "climate-neutral" claims with real proof.

Ireland 🇮🇪 is kicking off a summer of European #coal plant closures and has officially eliminated coal from its electricity mix with the closure of its Moneypoint plant!

Wind energy now powers more than a third of its electricity and is central to Ireland’s coal phase-out.

PFAS (‘forever chemicals’) levels have spiked in wine and some eggs due to environmental accumulation – an EU ban on PFAS is needed, as is a successful transition away from F-gases (a significant contributor of PFAS).

The UK Climate Change Committee’s recent Seventh Carbon Budget provides a roadmap to Net Zero by 2050.

We are adding our own recommendations for reducing emissions of some of the most potent greenhouse gases: methane, nitrous oxide, and F-gases.
