The hyperscale data centre in Fife could be one of the biggest in Scotland.🏭 It could have huge impacts on the local environment, energy and water consumption.🥀 We won’t let big tech exploit our communities. Join our campaign to stop the plans.👇 greens.scot/stopfifeaidatace…

Our carbon footprint is going up - when it needs to be coming down, fast.🔥 And a climate plan that relies heavily on unproven technologies is not going to help us change course. We need real climate action - to create warmer homes and cheaper public transport - now.👇

Fans are being priced out of football. Thanks to @jmcginn7 & @kevinbridges86 highlighting this issue. This week the Scottish Parliament voted for my amendment to cap away tickets in Scotland at £25 but so much more needs done across the game. Football without fans is nothing!

🌍Billionaires are destroying our environment. With private jet flights, mega data centres, new fossil fuel exploitation, and nature vandalism. Scottish Greens will always stand with our communities against these corporate polluters.

Some interesting insights here: - Scottish Greens won the largest share of the under 35 vote by some distance. - 13% of those who backed independence in 2014 voted for Reform.

🚨 An AI data centre in Fife could be built without a proper environmental assessment! This can't be allowed to happen. Scottish Greens MSP @markruskell is calling on Fife Council to reject these monstrous proposals.

This is one of the richest countries in the history of the world. Yet we have thousands of children going to school hungry each morning while supermarkets rake in obscene profits. #bbcqt

My constituent Dr Antonis Vradis was abducted by the Israeli State in international waters while taking part in the Gaza aid convoy. I've written to the FCO to demand action to secure his release and have also asked Dr Vradis' employer- University of St Andrews to add their voice
