👍Great to hear strong defence of the energy transition by @ed-miliband.bsky.social on BBC Today Radio 4 (8:10 interview).
💡Key point: “in 10-15 years time, people will not look back and say why were they going on about climate, they will say why didn’t they talk about it more”

Surely this should be a red line. New oil and gas for a rich OECD country in 2025 is unconscionable.

New analysis: If four UK airport expansions including Heathrow are allowed to go ahead, they will cancel out the carbon savings of this government’s clean power plan IN JUST FIVE YEARS. This government must cancel these planned expansions.

Trump has pulled the US out of the #ParisAgreement as expected.

Reposting my recent commentary on COP reform. Key points:
🌎 Organisational tweaks not enough
🌏 Smart voting rules would enable stronger decisions
🌍 Amending UNFCCC to do this not impossible

How can we fix climate COPs? Let's start with the voting rules
We can't fix climate COPs with organisational reforms - we need to address the obstruction from blanket consensus decision-making

Amid all the suggestions for reforms to make
COPs more effective, one has flown under the radar: a shift from consensus decisions to majority voting.
