Excellent news! Coal is NOT the future and locally people were being misled into thinking there could be employment from this. There are so many more good, sustainable jobs in renewable energy.

The time for stronger, science-led legislation to tackle the climate-nature crisis is now.
This term, this session, this Parliament. 🧵

Not so much a failing to protect nature by @MyDoncaster as deliberate action to destroy it: publicly owned wildlife habitat at RoseHill sold to a developer by a council that says it protects green spaces & biodiversity. No wonder nature is in crisis @Independent @WildlifeTrusts

To halt new climate-harming fossil fuel projects, preventing their insurance is crucial. Lobbying insurers globally has proven effective. Join forces at the British Insurance Broker’s Association conference in Manchester on May 15th for greater impact. The more the better!

Our ‘Doughnut Economics’ event at last year’s @FestOfDebate generated a lot of interest and debate and it’s good to see this analysis 👇🏼
1 May 2024
It's long been a question: could all of humanity actually live within the Doughnut? Thanks to Hauke Schlesier et al it's just been quantified for the 1st time. And the answer is probably yes - if we transform to economies of sufficiency. Read more here: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
