This is why the net-zero carbon target needs to be reached by 2050 - earlier if possible. Otherwise it get's worse, a lot worse.

The return of the battery hen egg under Tory trade deal.
They just don’t care. Animal suffering traded off in the desperate search for trade deals to replace all the trade benefits we once had as a result of being in the EU. Shame on @annietrev & co. https://n.respublicae.eu/joewstanley/status/1677643641202917378

There is no such thing as "net-zero concrete" which may explain why I cannot find anything on their website to substantiate this claim. Sure, there are 'less worse' concretes but a concrete that somehow has zero CO2 emissions is a false claim. @CEMEX where is your evidence? https://n.respublicae.eu/CEMEX/status/1676269169162035209

Re @whittledaway There are some, shall we say, ‘odd’ relationships between environmental NGOs and big carbon emitters. I’ve always thought the @BirdLifeEurope and @hd_materials questionable. Birdlife get old quarries to turn into lakes for birds and in return a cement producer gets a greenwash.
