Want to see billionaire brainwashing in action?

Seven out of ten Brits are big fans of renewable energy and want to see lots more of it.

But they think the majority of people DON’T support it.

That disconnect isn’t an accident. 🧵

There are some people who seem to see the recovery of ecosystems in a deforested waste as a personal affront. It's about power, and different landscapes reflect the different ways in which power is distributed - or concentrated.

Kemi Badenoch says the Tories would scrap the Climate Change Act.

That’s not leadership — it’s like betting big on whale oil lamps as electricity arrives.
Britain deserves better than climate denial.

Just emailed my MP asking him to join his colleagues in demanding that the government leaves X following Elon Musk's recent comments. It literally takes two minutes to do, and I encourage everyone to do the same: www.writetothem.com.
I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore.

So I wrote a blog about ten things you can do *right now* to help defeat Farage, Musk, and rightwing populism.

From scrutinising Reform councillors to demanding the UK Govt leave X - get involved:

As for biodiversity, a brand new study also confirms what's well established: overall ruminant meat, especially from grazing animals (which require more land, entailing more carbon & biodiversity opportunity costs) has the biggest 'extinction footprint' of all foods: www.nature.com/articles/s43...
