RT @Andrew9Boswell: What do when you encounter a hydrocarbon
"Hello,dear hydrocarbon molecule - nice to meet you. I don't want to burn you, and turn you, from CH4 to CO2, as I love💚 my grandchildren. So I will now say 'goodbye' and leave you well alone for all eternity"

RT @jjaron: Booking a trip to Paris, and the Eurostar is twice the price of flying there. Why aren't we subsidising trains and taxing planes yet?

RT @1andrewbear: This haunting, dystopian image shows armed police guarding a bucket-wheel excavator at at the site of a new coal mine in Luetzerath, Germany. Thousands of Earth Protectors are occupying the village to stop the mine.

RT @BrianMcHugh2011: 'In order to do what the climate crisis demands of us, we have to find stories of a livable future, stories of popular power, stories that motivate people to do what it takes to make the world we need'

RT @parislees: THIS is what we should be angry about. Not trans people. Not celebrity scandal. Not Westminster gossip. Fossil fuel companies have known for decades and spent huge sums to mislead us and get politicians in their back pocket.

RT @eiecampaign: 🚨 PLEASE RT 🚨
Defend the #RightToStrike 👊
On Monday, the government will try to ram through its anti-strike law.
An attack on the very frontline workers they once called “heroes”.
We’ll be protesting outside Parliament from 6PM.

Well done to the jury!
But imagine defending yourself at a trial where speaking of climate crisis, poverty or insulation is prohibited! Anhttps://insulatebritain.com/2023/01/11/breaking-four-insulate-britain-supporters-vindicated-after-jury-returns-unanimous-not-guilty-verdict/

RT @GreenPartyJack: Even by their standards, this govt’s stance on the Elgin Marbles is astonishingly outdated.
Historical and cultural artefacts should never be referred to as “assets”, and they don’t belong in the UK.
A state-of-the-art museum in Athens has been ready to house them for 15 years.

RT @EmilyLincOBrien: An eye-watering £42 billion of tax was lost or stolen last year:
😲 That's £58,000 for every nurse in the country!
😭Or £1,300 for every single taxpayer!

Why aren't we self sufficient in renewable energy?
Because of the grid.
Fix the issues with grid capacity and access and most of our problems would vanish overnight. It's a no brainer.
(But when did we last see a brain on the ministerial benches?).
