This saddens me on so many levels! Major damage to the UK academic sector, NHS, another message of welcome foreigners and not to mention all the families affected by this...

Turns out I will be working with DAERA in Northern Ireland on developing net zero strategies that consider people's attitudes and address behaviours- excited for this challenge 🤗 @CAST_Centre #NetZero

In light of the Prime Minister's recent announcement on the Government's 'new approach' to #NetZero, we drafted our own response in a blog post and discussed how this will impact the UK meeting its climate targets 👇🎯 Read the blog post: cast.ac.uk/cast-responds-…

📢 open access article: thebritishacademy.ac.uk/publishing/jou… We argue: a people-centred approach is needed to meet net zero goals w/ fantastic co-authors @DrCDemski @StuartBCapstick @lwhitmarsh @wouterpoortinga Out now in the Journal of the @BritishAcademy_ @CAST_Centre @_ACCESSnetwork

💥 BREAKING 💥 Chris Packham legal challenge to Prime Minister over Net Zero 🌍 “The Prime Minister is playing populist politics with the future of life on Earth. Immoral, unethical and, we believe, illegal.” @ChrisGPackham He has 7 days to respond ⌛️ #Suenak #ClimateCrisis

The first global temperature data is in for the full month of September. This month was, in my professional opinion as a climate scientist – absolutely gobsmackingly bananas. JRA-55 beat the prior monthly record by over 0.5C, and was around 1.8C warmer than preindutrial levels.

🙏@damiengayle & @NiranjanAjit for covering my story of conscientious objection to flying @guardianeco. I find it ironic that a spokesperson stated @kielinstitute "support its employees in travelling in a climate-friendly manner." theguardian.com/environment/20… @fdabl @JKSteinberger

BBC reporting that the current UK govt is going to water down its net-zero policies by - falsely - claiming that it "has over-delivered on confronting climate change" No one - the CCC, IPCC, UN, scientists - has ever claimed that. Quite the opposite bbc.com/news/uk-politi…

Got any good ways to respond to tricky climate comments like these? The @CAST_Centre will be publishing an online guide to creative and inspiring responses. We’d love to hear from you! Contribute via our survey: t.ly/0g254

Lots of attention for Isabella's poster on twitter discussions of new cycle infrastructure and LTNs at the #ICEP2023 @icep2023 conference @CAST_Centre

@CaroVerfuerth presenting @CAST_Centre work that uses deliberative workshops for envisioning #NetZero futures

Writing about the Climate Stripes on #ShowYourStripes day, for my book 'The Visual Life of Climate Change'. Topical! The story of an iconic #climatechange visual just got even more interesting!

@Microlambert @icep2023 has plenty of positive stories this week!

Please send me your stories of multi-stage international train journeys across Europe where all the trains ran to schedule and nothing went wrong. I’ve been trying to persuade my friends who flew to Germany to get the train with me next time. But I’m on day 2 of getting home…

Lots of @CAST_Centre presentations at the #ICEP2023 conference! Come along to our sessions and/or have a chat. We love to meet you! @steviedubyu @icep2023

5 privileged thrill-seeking men pay £200k to view a sunken boat; navy, air force, coast guard, state air guard rescue, front page news 500 desperate safety-seeking people pay everything they have to risk a sunken boat; 100 kids dead, no rescue, news silent Humanity is wrecked.

@s_mckinley @steviedubyu @CAST_Centre @FlightFreeUK @StuartBCapstick @icep2023 @wouterpoortinga Same here !

Super-excited to start the first leg of the train trip from Cardiff to Aarhus for the International Conference on Environmental Psychology @icep2023. Soon joining up with fellow @CAST_Centre researchers... and swerving airports of course! 😁

#Eurostar did us proud, @liemelo found us an excellent cafe near Bruxelles-Midi for a late lunch. Next stop Cologne (on a very handsome ruby train🚂). @icep2023 at Aarhus beckons. @wouterpoortinga @lkathe @StuartBCapstick @CAST_Centre

So it begins! @CAST_Centre heading to @icep2023 by train 🤞 @StuartBCapstick @liemelo @steviedubyu @wouterpoortinga

When we block a road to highlight the govt failure to act on the #ClimateCrisis OUTRAGE from media When 60,000 people peacefully & lawfully surround Parliament for #EarthDay for the same reason SILENCE from @BBCNews @itn @SkyNews @TheSun @MailOnline @TalkTV @GBNEWS @thetimes

This dispute isn’t just about pay or pensions. Casualisation ruins lives — it must end. #ucuRISING
