The same bad actors that have opposed climate action for decades have now sought to weaponize the modest progress toward decarbonization we've made in spite of them. My co-author @doctorvive.bsky.social & I recently weighed in on this in the @thebulletin.org: thebulletin.org/2026/05/sorr...

England just had its warmest spring on record. The record was last set in spring 2025. Before that, spring 2024. 9 of the 10 warmest springs have occurred since 2007. It's almost like there's a long-term driver causing this... www.metoffice.gov.uk/about-us/new...

As we read this story our disbelief grew. Examples of model citizens being harassed and bullied by our spineless, morally bankrupt excuse for a government.

Misinformation spreading on social media about the ebola outbreak in Africa is fuelling an already surging epidemic, the International Red Cross has warned. I interviewed Petra Khoury whose just returned from a week in the DRC: www.thetimes.com/article/3b8e...

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

I co-wrote the Green New Deal nearly 20 years ago. We have known about climate change for decades. We have known what will happen. Yet nothing substantial has been achieved. Meanwhile, the effects of climate change exacerbate inequality even further. www.bbc.co.uk/weather/arti...

If you read/boost only one thing today, let it be this. Yeah, when have I said that on here. Never.

Very excited today to see both Dragonfly and Damselfly activity around the pond we put in last year. At one point had at least 5 of them flying around me down here in Devon. @britishdragonflies.bsky.social @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social #ukdragonflies #ukwildlife #ukdamselflies

"If data centres were a country, they would be the second-largest destination for gas turbines ordered from Q1 2025 to Q1 2026" New IEA report confirms this isn't a normal industry. It is a fossil-fuelled, high-polluting heavy industry producing socially corrosive products at massive climate cost.

BBC Question Time now doing exact same with AI they did with Farage? This ‘expert’ panel on AI is a disgrace: not one critical voice. Gilbert works for Tony Blair to promote AI. Jones is govt chief AI booster (& Blair flunky). Riparbelli is industry. Gawdat is ex industry. And a Tory MP

OK, so Helen Whately and the Express are doubling down and going all out hysterical at this point...🙄 They've actually "calculated" the state benefits a man with ELEVEN WIVES could claim!! And this time, they've done it behind a paywalled article🤷‍♀️ But don't worry, I got behind it!🤓 🧵1/20

A good idea before standing to run local government, find out how local government works!!! "A council meeting descended into abject chaos this week, after Reform councillors admitted that they ‘did not understand’ some of the local government procedures." www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ref...

Farage takes money from the US evangelical loons, and installs the likes of Orr and Kruger in senior positions. I have no doubt whatsoever that he'll come for abortion if he gets in.

At a time when trust and truth are under strain, people need clear, honest information from independent experts about the climate and nature crisis. An informed public is the foundation of democracy. Please sign the petition.

We need a new ‘total’ economic settlement - one that builds economic resilience. 🧵

Proud to be part of this campaign - get involved!

The government’s new assault on the right to challenge planning decisions is another example of its authoritarian reflex. We very much need a fast green transition, which means large-scale renewables. But instead of bringing people along, it goes straight for coercion.🧵1/8 www.gov.uk/government/n...

Brilliant! 😂

Everyone should contribute fairly to keeping the country running. But right now? Workers (generally the poorest) pay higher tax rates than people who make money from owning stuff (generally the richest). That’s why we advocate among other fixes... 🧵1/7

“A brilliant nurse can be the conductor of the orchestra. Nurses are the one profession who can assess the whole person. “Without nurses, you cannot be safe, you cannot be cared for and you cannot be listened to. This government will fail unless it invests in nursing.”

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

This one is particularly strong.

How infantile and unprofessional. If this is the way he starts this is the way he'll continue.

People have the right to march, etc, but I'm with Sadiq. Those flag loving bores are not representative of our city, which they hate - largely because it disproves every dim witted thing they stand for.

A letter published in the Plymouth Herald: "Have you noticed that the authors of articles against net-zero offer opinions, but rarely solid evidence to back up their claims? But where do they get their ideas?" Good question...

The King's Speech was a fumble. This was Keir Starmer's opportunity for a real reset, to put us before private profits in our public services. Here are 4 bill announced in it where the govt missed an open goal to bring water, our NHS, rail and energy into public hands👇1/5

It's a good day to share this data from the Centre for Health and Public Interest. Enter your postcode; see how much is leaking out in profit from the NHS in your local area. @chpithinktank.bsky.social vist.ly/53zsz

Britons embrace green tech to dodge rising fuel costs. "The war has certainly accelerated clean tech adoption," says @janrosenow.bsky.social. Heat pump orders are up 72% and solar panel sales up 104%, as the annual household bill is forecast to rise to £1,929. www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

Our election campaigns were rooted in fighting to end the housing affordability crisis, and voters have spoken. Green Mayors @zoegarbett.bsky.social & @liamshrivastava.bsky.social alongside Carla Denyer MP have written to the government to demand a Rent Controls Bill in the King's Speech tomorrow

The biggest majority in the modern era, and terrified of your own shadow for two years. It beggars belief. I've never known any govt. to have less to lose, and never known a greater need for political honesty than now. But, hey, best stay cautious. You don't want to become unpopular do you?

Hope for Britain’s Ash trees thanks to scientific ‘eureka’ moment Scientists at the John Innes Centre in Norwich have found a way to speed up the germination of seeds, allowing disease-resistant Ash trees to grow, writes Alex Thomson. Read our latest newsletter here:

Starmer just announced 'full national ownership' of British Steel. Labour are bringing emergency legislation, because 'public ownership is in the public interest' So this government CAN nationalise. And they can do it quickly. Why, then, are we not bringing our water into public ownership? 🧐
