Tackling climate change, the Germans decide to rob Peter to pay Paul. Both approaches needed, it’s not an either or.
RT @RenovateEurope: “The #buildings as a whole need to significantly #reduce their energy consumption so that it can be covered cost-effectively and quickly by renewable energy,” explained @DENEFFeV 🇩🇪

Dear @BBCNews the villages haven’t been ‘captured’ they’ve been ‘liberated’. Big difference.

Well worth a watch, a Grand Designs that explores modular construction via a couple in Kent building a low cost timber framed home. Much less waste & a smaller carbon footprint. https://www.channel4.com/programmes/grand-designs/on-demand/73532-001

@JamesMartinSJ I’m afraid she really was no saint. She never asked ‘Why are the poor poor?’ She never challenged the rich and powerful. She never called for structural change to benefit the poor. She was the polar opposite of Martin Luther King who is the preeminent Christian of the modern era.

It basically boils down to who are you more inclined to trust? The global concrete industry responsible for 8% of all global carbon emissions or the Potsdam Institute of Climate Impact Research?
RT @ConcreteDialog: Replacing natural forests with wood plantations to realise shift in #construction is not realistic. It can cause disastrous effects for nature and the climate. View of environmentalists as mentioned in The Guardian art…

@ConcreteDialog Was this research peer-reviewed? If so who by?

RT @JadDaley: There aren’t two sides to every story. Climate denial isn’t a “side”, just a lie. Same for denying results of duly won elections & undermining democratic process on the basis of that lie. It isn’t “political” to name this. It is our duty. 🙏 @JohnJHarwood
