Grim situation in Chiva, west of Valencia tonight, where 430mm of rain have fallen today, with a scarcely believable 340mm of that falling in 4 hours!

This article is the biggest load of shite I’ve read since Dale Vince gave me a free copy of his book. Full of misinformation. I started retraining to fit heat pumps in June. They’re bloody brilliant- wish I’d done it sooner. A far better heating solution for so many people.
George Monbiot@GeorgeMonbiot

. @DaleVince is pushing Daily Mail-type falsehoods about heat pumps while promoting a much worse alternative: his highly damaging, ecologically illiterate attempt to turn millions of acres of the UK into biogas fields. I hope the government ignores him. theguardian.com/environment/20…

'We Mean Business' cards have just arrived. I'll be handing these out on building sites and to tradesmen I meet: seems appropriate in a week when UK might experience hurricane strength winds. Email constructionworkersxr@gmail.com if you would like some cards. @XRLondon

We’ve massively improved physical safety on construction sites. There's no reason why we can't now do the same for our mental wellbeing too ✊ #GetConstructionTalking

Agh mould from poorly fitted solid wall insulation. We should be providing warmer, cheaper, more comfort homes, but this is frustrated by skills gap, knowledge gap, lack of funding & marginalisation of natural insulation solutions. bbc.com/news/articles/…

In the late 1960s there was a big push to develop the Great Barrier Reef for oil & gas exploitation But the Queensland Trades and Labour Council issued a 'black ban' - no union workers would provide goods or services to the oil industry It was a 'pivotal moment' 1/2

Global wind power installations reached a new high in 2023, increasing renewable energy’s share of total power generation to 30%. Who are the leading countries? This graphic highlights the top 15 countries by total installed wind turbine capacity, based on data from the Energy Institute’s Statistical Review of World Energy 2024 report.

Not news but still depressing, homes built in the last 10 years are more expensive to run as a result of weak building regs. The new Future Homes Standard comes in next year and it's an opportunity to mandate solar, heat pumps and better insulation 🤞 theguardian.com/business/2024/…
