Great new video about the #bioeconomy by Fern: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYjg... . It illustrates the massive difference between using wood for building insulation compared to burning it in terms of climate impacts, air pollution and pressure on forests.
What is the bioeconomy and will it help us?

Petition: Ban cheap renewable energy from being charged at the price of expensive gas
Mandate energy providers to stop charging the same price as expensive gas for much cheaper renewable energy. We think they should pass any savings on to consumers, rather than keeping them as profit.

Over 400 people agree that gas fuelled electric wholesale prices should be detached from renewable electric prices, making sure the savings, which are considerable, are passed onto consumer NOT shareholders. Can you take it to 500? petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

To our governments:

Every extreme weather event is political.

It’s time to hold those who caused the climate crisis accountable.

It's time to tax the super-rich and fossil fuel companies!
