The Government has delayed a decision on the £1.5 billion A66 Northern Trans Pennine scheme until 7 March 2024. “Unsurprisingly, the Secretary of State is in no rush to approve this controversial and costly mega-road scheme." - Rebecca Lush, @TransportActio2 🧵

What a WIN!! After 27 days of A12 blockades and more than 9,000 arrests, the Lower House asks the cabinet for a phase-out plan for fossil fuel subsidies. Civil disobedience works! We will stay sharp and are ready for new actions. #StopFossilFuelSubsidies extinctionrebellion.nl/a12-b…

My colleague @LauraLoHorn is today risking arrest to raise awareness of the harms from private jets. Each 4hr flight in a private jet emits as much as the average European does a year! Thank you Laura for your leadership 🙏 #StayGrounded #ClimateCrisis x.com/SciRebDenmark/status/1…

Here Associate Professor @LauraLoHorn explains the reasons why she's standing up to the ultra-rich today and demanding they #StayGrounded

The idea that #Rosebank is part of some 'just transition' to #NetZero is utterly absurd And this, from a Govt that has totally failed to do anything meaningful about UK having some of the most heat-leaking homes in Europe, meaning our bills are far higher than they should be
The UK's newly announced Rosebank oil field approval is part of a 'just transition' to net-zero, Environment Secretary Thérèse Coffey tells @cathynewman.

🚨The UK taxpayer is covering 91% the cost of developing Rosebank. Rosebank's owner Equinor is set to receive £3.75 BILLION in tax breaks for the field. Equinor made £62 BILLION in profits last year. Rishi Sunak is subsidising a filthy rich oil giant to produce oil for export

Govt has taken morally obscene decision to allow #Rosebank approval when Parliament is in recess to avoid scrutiny. Democracy is being undermined & our chance of a liveable future is under attack. Time to act. I'll be outside @energygovuk HQ at noon on Saturday. Will you join me?
