In 2010 #Brighton Pavilion made history by electing me UK’s 1st Green MP & it’s been the honour of my life. My open letter to residents & friends explains why I’m not standing at next General Election. With love & gratitude, I hope I've done you proud 👇

“This means slashing emissions – not at a rate that doesn’t reach net zero in another quarter of a century, but that reaches real zero as soon as possible. It means widespread & deep adaptation to world-shattering changes that are now inevitable” - Yes👇 https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jan/09/planet-dying-climate-crisis-emergency-scientists?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

As horrific fires rage in LA, news that world has breached 1.5 degrees global heating. Failure to join the dots & take urgent action is devastating legacy of too many political leaders. How many more cities must burn before we end new fossil fuel drilling? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/10/world-temperature-in-2024-exceeded-15c-for-first-time?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

Having spent years campaigning for overdose prevention rooms like these, I’m so pleased & relieved that first legal drug consumption room opens in Glasgow to save lives, reduce risk & engage hardest to reach drug users. I hope rest of UK will follow suit https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/jan/10/all-eyes-are-on-glasgow-uk-first-legal-drug-consumption-room-ready-open?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

The fires in Los Angeles are the result of years of cascading extreme weather conditions created by carbon pollution from burning oil, gas, and coal.

RT by @CarolineLucas: Everyone needs to know that these fires were made possible by global heating, which is caused by the fossil fuel industry, which has lied and blocked action for half a century. And that this will all get much, much, much worse until we end the fossil fuel industry

RT by @CarolineLucas: Nothing wrong w targeting financial assets of criminals, including smugglers.
But it won’t change the fact that people need to escape danger & there are no safe routes.
Squeezing boat supply chains so far has led to smugglers using poorer quality & flimsier boats🤷♀️ #r4today
