If you're a #British citizen, or a #UK resident, consider signing & sharing this UK Parliament petition, created by Chris Packham, which calls for the UK Government to hold a UK-wide briefing on climate & nature risks. #climate & #nature petition.parliament.uk/petitions/76...

Petition: Hold a UK-wide briefing on climate and nature risksThe UK faces growing risks from climate and nature breakdown - from extreme weather to economic disruption and national security threats. Yet the public has never been given a clear national briefing ...petition.parliament.uk

"As Mayor of Greater Manchester, you oversaw the declaration of a #ClimateEmergency & argued that local government lacked many of the powers necessary to deliver the pace of change demanded by the climate challenge. As Prime Minister, those powers now rest with you"

Exvellent open letter to the PM on #Rosebank and #Jackdaw! "All signatories are members of the Tyndall Centre, based in the School of Engineering at the University of #Manchester, and all played a key role in the #climate research underpinning the GMCA’s 2038 carbon neutrality commitment." Bravo!

Hugely important letter to PM Andy Burnham from @kevinclimate.bsky.social &Tyndall colleagues. Rapidly shrinking global carbon budgets were ignored when Govt set the recent Seventh Carbon Budget - now a key ground in #CarbonReckoning legal case www.crowdjustice.com/case/carbon-... (see below)

A mom & child could spend time at the kitchen table listening a few times over a week to this frank, pithy, hopeful recent interview of scientist @kevinclimate.bsky.social — taking notes, discussing it. It is a good basis for the letter writing I suggested above. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx6w...

Right! @kevinclimate.bsky.social nailed it in 2011: "Socolow's wedges…they're the wrong way around. ...He has us starting with small reductions from the pointy ends of the wedges & progressing to…the big end. …but because we're so late…we need to get the big reductions almost immediately." 1/2

George Monbiot

The famous "Wedges" paper was used repeatedly to shut us up when we argued against the continued use of fossil fuels, and, esp, against carbon capture and storage and the mass use of bioenergy. "But these eminent scientists say ..." Now we learn BP co-authored it. www.propublica.org/article/wedg...
