@janrosenow Optimists believe in people. There is no role for people in the pessimistic view!

Pessimists sound clever. Optimists change the world. I love this depiction of the energy transition by RMI.

@carolvorders @OuternetGlobal Hi Carol, could you dm me re something I'm hoping you could help with re fuel poverty and housing in Wales. We worked on smart energy campaign a few years back. Thank you

If you’re in London, you can see the photographs for free at @outernetglobal from today. They’ll be there throughout March, at which point they will be sold in aid of Refuge. You can also donate to Refuge and help women and children overcome the physical, emotional, financial and logistical impacts of abuse to rebuild their lives — free from fear.

I am so humbled and surprised to be part of @Independent influence list on this year’s #internationalwomensday. It features 50 women of influence of the last year and for some reason they’ve put this old bird on it! And for woman supporting women ❤️ To mark the occasion, 10 of us on the list have had our portraits taken by Sane Seven to raise money and awareness for the incredible charity @RefugeCharity.

Thank you colleagues from @cardiffuni @JoPatterson74 @WSofArchi for joining us in Brussels today to share your work with partners across Europe. #NetZero #HorizonEurope @rogermwhitaker

Presenting our @LCBE_WSA @WSofArchi #retrofit #transforminghomes research on delivering low carbon housing for future generations @cbuilde @CIBSE @cardiffuni @CUNetZero

To meet #NetZero goals we must phase out the use of #FossilFuels and find new approaches to producing #renewable fuels. Here, Naomi Lawes discusses her PhD research into catalysts which convert carbon dioxide into methanol – one such renewable fuel: blogs.cardiff.ac.uk/innovation/202… #Cop28

Today Dr Steve Coombs and I visited the homes and met the residents of our #transforminghomes project in Swansea. Residents are on board and the homes that 'look identical' all provide many different challenges #beyondnetzero #biobasedmaterial @ahrcpress @LCBE_WSA @cardiffuni
