.@BorisJohnson stop importing Russian oil!
It's funding Putin's war and fuelling the climate crisis.
Putin’s former adviser has said that banning Russian fossil fuels could stop the war. Boost renewables and household energy efficiency instead.

Hey @BorisJohnson,
Despite "banning" Russian vessels, the UK is still importing Russian fossil fuels.
So you're still funding Putin's war on Ukraine.
Get us off fossil fuels altogether. Insulate our homes and invest properly in renewables.

I wonder if teachers would be happy if they *only* had to teach poetry? 📖🖊️🎉

Does anyone know any of these English teachers furious at being forced to read poetry, mercilessly bullied by the nation's most lyrical rhymers?
(Also, 'celebrity poets' - now THAT's a strong Tinder bio)

BP CEO Bernard Looney says the current pandemic has strengthened his commitment to tackling the climate crisis. If @bp_plc really wants to be a part of a cleaner, healthier & more resilient future, it needs to stop drilling for new oil and gas and go 100% renewable. #bpNetZero
