Sunak keeps saying households were facing £10k-20k bills, primarily because of the cost of moving to a heat pump. Here’s the second major energy company inside a month announcing a heat pump at a cost that is comparable and even lower than a gas boiler. businessgreen.com/news/4131019/o…

UK based environmental consultant for 20 + years. I’ve never heard any individual advocate for seven bins. I have heard calls to consume less meat, but never heard proposals to achieve this through taxation. These are alternative facts. Deliberate tactics aimed at polarisation.

Concerned about fracturing of UK political consensus on climate action Chopping and changing policies creates uncertainty for businesses and the public Ultimately this makes it more difficult to attract investment and pushes up costs for consumers (1/2)

Superb tonight, Lewis Dunk! 👍

Agreeing to new oil and gas fields won’t help the UK. It will only create more declining and stranded assets that will cost our future economy when we can be investing and creating jobs and growth in clean energy. And as I’ve consistently said, leadership requires us to lead:

"This is a dark day for life on Earth." Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's assertion that we are "on track" to meet our net zero target by 2050 is "a lie", says conservationist @ChrisGPackham. Latest climate news: trib.al/aWkNMeR

Anyone interested in the actual facts VS claims the new oil and gas licences will bring UK energy prices down? This is quite the humdinger. Well done @Channel4News 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

After 13 yrs in power a Party needs a compelling story to win another term. Does the Prime Minister really think dropping our int’l environmental leadership & rolling back our domestic commitments is that winning story? If so he must have a dim view of the people he wants to lead

My comment on today’s announcement

..we only dreamed back then that @LondonNPC would actually exist, be supported by @SadiqKhan and that @JCDecaux_UK would be helping the #NationalParkCity with real billboards across #London. Just brilliant! Have you seen one yet? #DoLondonDifferently #Greener #Healthier #Wilder

...they all celebrate inspiring Londoners who are doing great things to make our #NationalParkCity greener, healthier and wilder! Love the photos by @londonin360. Excellent work @markcridge and team! Fantastic stuff. nationalparkcity.london #DoLondonDifferently

Enjoyed an informative and insightful talk at the @NHM_London this morning, with @Arup, about how developers can increase support for their projects by improving green spaces in cities. Lovely to see many familiar faces, and see the beautiful @BWPAwards exhibition as well.

@Kaulofthewilduk @NHM_London @Arup @BWPAwards @markcridge @DanRavenEllison @PlanAbby @JustinJ0hn50n @TheCrownEstate @PeterMassini Thanks for coming Kabir.

@piersmorgan I don’t know, but assume he was keeping a pretty intent eye on the clock finishing about 1 minute before curfew?

Is Elton having to read the words to all his own songs?

A lot of applause for the Connect Out (@Arup) acceptance speech as they win our 2023 Network Group or ERG award 👏👏#BritishLGBTAwards

@Kaulofthewilduk Happy birthday 🥳

I am 18 today! Today I've been reflecting on my journey in conservation over the past five years - I couldn't have come this far without your immense encouragement, support and wisdom. I'm excited for the future!

Thanks @adele_peters - nice piece. fastcompany.com/90887247/from-… @c40cities @Arup @Wild_West_End #NationalParkCity
