I’ve just announced I’ll be leading a National Emergency Briefing on 27 November . At a time when climate is in free fall on the political agenda , it’s vital our leaders realise what is at stake if we do not accelerate a just , green transition for all .

Really powerful research here showing just how much the facts around netzero have been distorted….
British public vastly overestimates cost of getting to net zero - by a staggering 14,000%.
On average, they estimate it will need 28% of GDP by 2050, compared to just 0.2%.
We need a National Emergency Briefing❗️

Net zero by 2050 to limit warming to 1.5°C. That may have been plausible 10 years ago, but the continued rise of emissions means that there is effectively no carbon budget left for 1.5. It is cumulative emissions that drives warming. 1/6 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We urgently need honesty on the climate crisis.
Military emissions are excluded from national emissions figures. Yes, we simply pretend they don't exist.
That means there's little pressure to reduce them.
