The UK’s year of climate U-turns exposes a deeper failure Breaking free of the dangerous pretence that current efforts suffice demands a fundamental rethink of the UK’s climate policy consensus.

Thank you for this article @kevinclimate.bsky.social and colleagues. Insightful analysis. Yes to international justice in UK climate policy. Agree behaviour change and ecological risks should not be downplayed, nor carbon capture overstated. @thecccuk.bsky.social theconversation.com/the-uks-year...

The monitoring station on Mauna Loa provides the longest direct measurements of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Trump wants to shut it down, which is like taking the batteries out of your screaming smoke alarm and pretending the house isn't on fire. #climatechange

The Planning Bill is not the win-win for nature & building we were promised 🚨

If the Bill proceeds unchanged, it will break new ground in the destruction of nature across England πŸ₯€
