Inspired by that great Peter Sellers film, the humble Hazel Dormouse & the belief that when it's time to roar, we ROAR!

New article from @SiOldridge & me on the UK Government's "Blue Hydrogen" scam - a desperate attempt to greenwash the Natural Gas industry, with UK tax payers footing the bill. theguardian.com/commentisfre… Little wonder trust in policy makers is so low. Time for honesty & openess!

In his Autumn statement, the UK Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt yesterday unveiled his Govt's contempt for the Paris Agreement & wider climate agenda. Sadly, the shadow Chancellor @RachelReevesMP offers much of the same. Two political minnows infinitely circling the growth bowl.

Attached is my longer reply to the Guardian question: "The wealthiest 1 per cent of people on the planet are responsible for double the greenhouse gas emissions of the poorest half of people. When it comes to tackling the climate crisis, is this a problem? theguardian.com/environment/…

The full discussion I had with @NickGBreeze is now at: youtube.com/watch?v=A_7Z58eV… Issues raised include: Big Oil's hijacking of #COP28; cognitive dissonance within 'experts'; weak & ill-equipped political leadership; the role of civil society & the potential for a velvet revolution.

Millions of intensively farmed chickens along the Wye are force fed each day with soy-based feed imported by @Cargill⁩ from deforested Amazonia, thus importing 1000s of tons of phosphorus into the river catchment. One form of ecocide causing another ☠️ theguardian.com/environment/…

In a recent discussion with @jrockstrom he explains why we need "to phase out fossil fuels ... as fast as we ever can". Full interview for @Clim8Uncensored at: youtube.com/watch?v=lLq8e73-… Other "Climate Uncensored" videos & blogs at: climateuncensored.com

This is pretty accurate. As record wildfires and heatwaves tear through countries around the world, Shell announced quarterly profits of Β£3.9 BILLION. Big Oil is profiting off climate destruction while fueling the fire. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate vid @SeanBurkeShow

Today I can share I'm challenging the PM on the legality of abandoning key Net Zero commitments I believe the timeline for the UK to meet Net Zero cannot be changed at will by the PM – I contend that he does not have the legal right The ball is in your court , Prime Minister

Short & worthwhile thread. Bluntly, don't trust Oil & Gas execs. Their agenda is simple: mislead, co-opt, bribe, lie, use slick advertising, PR, anything, provided it delays the phase out of fossil fuels. It's their follow-up strategy to Merchants of Doubt en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercha…

An important read for anyone seriously interested in climate change. The actions of 'developed' nations (reinforced by the complicit silence of most climate experts) usher in a "neo-colonisation" era. If too difficult to read the attached print, then try: 12ft.io/proxy?q=https:/%…

My piece in today’s @htTweets β€œClimate deception in the name of action” calling out developed countries for - disregarding adaptation - backtracking on #ParisAgreement targets, including mitigation - not providing #climatefinance - stifling future growth of #GlobalSouth ⬇️

Huge congrats to our comrades at Friends of the Lower Wye @of_wye for publicising the appalling state of the Trothy (see link). But guess what? It's not even the worst tributary in the Wye catchment. Check out our latest readings on this thread. 🧡 bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-6683…

Patrick commented on the government’s plans for Stonehenge World Heritage Site: β€˜This is institutional vandalism at its worst.’ We agree and ask if you can possibly help SSWHS fight this vandalism through the courts? crowdjustice.com/case/save-s…
