🚨 RIGHT NOW opposite Labour Party HQ in London.

We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

I wonder what has caused Tony Blair, whose institute receives millions in funding from the journalist-murdering petro state of Saudi Arabia, to change his position on fossil fuels?

Pleased to join @stopcambo.bsky.social this week handing in a petition with a million signatures calling on the government to do the bare minimum to protect us from the climate crisis - commit to no new oil and gas. Time for govt to listen!

REMINDER: The UK doesn't own the oil or gas in Rosebank. It belongs to Rosebank's owner Equinor, a Norwegian state-owned oil giant.

If Rosebank goes ahead, most of its oil will be exported and sold to the highest bidder, generating massive profits for Equinor and the Norwegian state.

A wildfire in Galloway - so intense it could be seen from space - started last Thursday before spreading into East Ayrshire.

Going by train to Europe can cut your emissions by around 90%! But planning a rail journey can be a bit daunting if you've not done it before. Here's our guide to taking trains across Europe:

Tough political choices doesn’t involve cutting benefits for disabled people.

It involves standing up to greedy polluters and raising their taxes.

Last year I visited the £2bn Silvertown Tunnel.

Here I am imagining how many trams, buses, bikes and pedestrians could have used this crossing instead of more private cars and HGVs.

Road building has never and will never be the answer to cutting traffic and clearing our air!

Airport expansion is bad for our health: people living under flight paths are 10-20% more at risk of stroke and heart disease than those not living under flight paths.

Sign the petition to stop airport expansion:
Petition: Stop airport expansion: halt all airport expansion plans across the UK
More than 20 airports across the UK have expansion plans, which will result in a combined increase of 60%+ capacity. More flights means more emissions, at a time when we should be doing everything we…

The Chancellor once opposed airport expansion, but says that SAF has changed her mind. So-called 'sustainable' aviation fuel can apparently reduce emissions by 80%. But will it, really? This is the reality:
The trouble with SAF
SAFs, or sustainable aviation fuels, are heralded by the aviation industry as the answer to carbon emissions. But is that the full story? Finlay Asher and Flight Free UK explain.

❌DON’T PLAY GAMES WITH OUR CHILDREN’S FUTURE❌

BP CEO Auchincloss has cut £4bn, abandoning its target to reduce oil & gas production.

“Sooner or later, oil companies will be held accountable for climate damage costs” said Mark Van Baal “in reality, BP never made a serious effort to transition.”

🚨BREAKING: Massive forest fires have broken out across Scotland with 90 blazes being reported, covering the area of 3 MILES.

This comes after the south of Scotland only recorded 30-50% of expected rainfall for March.

How many more fires need to occur before the climate crisis is taken seriously?

Howden’s got you covered—homes, cars etc. But guess what?

While they brag about "sustainability", they’re cashing in with oily money.

We wanna use money to create a world that puts people and planet before profit.

Groups including @galba.uk & @wearepossible.bsky.social are taking the government to court over the Jet Zero policy. The Judicial Review starts on 1st April. We will be outside the Royal Courts of Justice protesting the government's inadequate plans to reduce aviation emissions. (This is not a joke)

Jurors have an absolute right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience. They must hear the whole truth.

It is anti-democratic for judges to withhold evidence from jurors. It is corrupt for judges to refuse jurors their rights in law.
