Nearly half of UK young adults once considered stopping eating meat before leaving school. Many tried. Most were pulled back by taste, convenience, pressure and family routines.

If companies can't run data centres without polluting our air and water, pushing up energy bills, abusing workers' rights, harming local communities or wrecking the climate – then they shouldn't be allowed to run them A safe climate and healthy environment are necessities – tech bro profits aren't

An oil company giving advice on how to stay cool in a heatwave? Feels like an arsonist handing out handheld fans before setting your house on fire 🤬🙄

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...

Thoughts and prayers for Daily Telegraph readers: the paper that routinely tells them #climate change isn’t real or isn’t important now tells them this non-issue is going to wipe TRILLIONS off their pensions.

This is HUGE: In 2025, renewables were the LARGEST source of global energy supply growth, with solar delivering 71% of that rise. The energy system is tilting towards clean power. Now governments need to double down and turn this surge into a real break‑up with fossil fuels.

Of course, Farage wants the UK to quit the ECHR. It would be a huge victory for Putin in his war against human rights and international law.

We need to make oil, coal and gas corporations pay their fair share for the damage they cause! Sign the Polluters Pay Pact today.

3,400 people die on a single extremely hot day in India. 30,000 in 5 days. Most of the poor aren't even counted. The study calls that a conservative estimate. Mass death is here. My heart is breaking. www.euronews.com/2026/06/10/h...

Good Monday Morning. *IF things pan out as currently modelled, the 40.3 deg C all-time maximum U.K. temp record set in July 2022 could well be obliterated in a week’s time. Things are escalating much faster than climate scientists predicted. We are very likely in BIG trouble.

⚖️ Victory! A French court has ruled TotalEnergies must limit its climate polllution. Big polluters must cut emissions and align with 1.5°C - and it’s enforceable. No one is above the law 🌍🔥

It's not "the new normal": this heatwave shows that we're never going to have "normal" again - by @mjflepage.bsky.social www.newscientist.com/article/2531...

What carbon capture would look like if we were serious

What everyone needs to be aware of is that such heatwaves are now locked-in And - given we are still pumping out 41 billion tonnes of CO2 a year - they will get much worse Whatever we do, the planet's temperature will stay elevated for many thousands of years www.theguardian.com/environment/...

How hot would union leaders Sharon Graham and Gary Smith like it to get? Do these people have no children and no concern for the future? "The priority for Unite and GMB is to persuade Burnham not to appoint Miliband because of his relentless focus on the net zero agenda."

Heatwaves are no mystery. It is what happens when societies keep protecting the industries destroying the conditions life depends on. Animal agriculture is one of them. Stop funding it.

UK media, this is an emergency. Stop the misinformation! "To properly inform the public, coverage of heatwaves should mention the certain influence of greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from burning fossil fuels, on making extreme heatwaves more intense and frequent."

Stark. Brutal. Deadly. This is the temp map forecast for France for 5pm this afternoon.

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

Reform UK councillors have introduced a motion to rescind King's Lynn and West Norfolk's climate emergency declaration and deprioritise decarbonisation efforts The council were going to vote on it on Thursday But the meeting has been postponed due to extreme heat

10 years on from Brexit, there are still no rules to stop lies in election ads. We’ve tabled amendments to prevent ads like the Brexit bus misleading voters again. Email your MP and ask them to sponsor them. 16 MPs have so far. It takes 30 seconds 👇 reformpoliticaladvertising.org/take-action/...

We are demanding justice. It’s time to shift the burden to where it belongs: the polluter must pay. Sign the petition 👇👇👇

Right now, record-breaking, dangerous heat waves are rolling across Europe. This isn't just "summer weather". This is exactly what the climate crisis looks like 🥵

Extreme heat is no longer rare. Heatwaves, already responsible for almost 500,000 deaths a year, are becoming more frequent, more intense and more dangerous. Here are nine ways to stay cool when temperatures spike: https://www.unep.org/news-and-stories/story/nine-ways-stay-cool-during-heatwave

The fossil-fuelled climate crisis drives extreme weather events, and a super El Niño makes it even more unstable and unpredictable. This is why we need climate action, and why we need it NOW.

Exactly 10 years since the Brexit vote, the verdict is in.

Allowing Moscow-aligned networks to win power in Europe would dissolve NATO solidarity and fracture the EU. Movements like the National Rally, LFI, AfD, and Reform UK act as Trojan horses. Voters need a wake-up call. A vote for them is a vote for Putin

BREAKING: Record-EVER temperatures now forecast for London this week. Red alert: >Red< weather warning. #CLIMATEBREAKDOWN

Amazing that influential people are still churning out these lies with impunity. Well done @thedisproof.bsky.social for debunking them.

This Brit nails it. #Immigration

Brexit cost 6% of UK economy, Bank of England company data suggests. That is a catastrophic loss of £180bn a year. It means a loss to the government budget of around £80bn a year. Imagine what Reeves could do with £80bn every year. Brexit must be scrapped ASAP. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

Both the government and the Court of Appeal now treat protesters as terrorists and terrorists as protesters. It's hard to accept that a "Labour" government is imposing rightwing authoritarianism on the UK, but please read this column to see what's happening.+🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It’s a revelatory report which nails how Russia’s hybrid warfare programme actually works & how Russia is explicitly & directly inciting racialised violence in UK - & has worked with Tommy Robinson to do so who even yesterday was shilling same Kremlin lines!

A) This a properly brilliant piece of investigative journalism by BBC & @hopenot.bsky.social Huge kudos to all involved for doing the job the UK police & CPS failed to do: naming the alleged spymaster & clearly showing Kremlin’s role. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I always thought there was something dodgy about these shops. Interesting to know how they really work.
