Found this an interesting breakdown of apparel emissions... including that over half comes from the production and finishing stage What's missing are the downstream emissions and impact on nature through washing, waste, and 'recycling' @greenlibdems.org.uk trellis.net/article/fash...

The ultimate irony will be the scale and speed of change needed after years of governments being accused of exaggerating the climate and nature emergency. In reality it is so often downplayed or hidden👇 @greenlibdems.org.uk theconversation.com/a-uk-climate...

"Sitting on the fence will just give you splinters in your ass" A good summary of a good read on sustainability comms and strategy for 2026 👇 @greenlibdems.org.uk trellis.net/article/how-...

Delighted to have been elected onto the @libdems.org.uk Federal Policy Committee 🔶 Looking forward to helping push the party to be as progressive and ambitious as possible with our policy and communication 🧡 As well as tying in my work on sustainability 🌍

It feels like we’re at an inflection point 🔶 With less than 3 months until May’s local elections people are becoming clearer and clearer that they want a positive alternative A real effective opposition for Lewisham And that in Catford South it’s the @libdems.org.uk 🧡

Great to hear Lord John Russell, long time Lewisham Lib Dem, talk about his energy and climate change portfolio in Parliament

The sun was shining on our Conisborough Crescent conversations 🔶 Literally only for that time though before I got soaked cycling home… with a rainbow for company 🌈 I’ll take it as a good sign that Lewisham might just have new positive opposition come May 🗳️

It’s beyond irresponsible to think you can accurately predict tipping points and their precise financial effects within the system triggering those tipping points @greenlibdems.org.uk 1/3 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

From my very real discussion this weekend: “Improving GDP-per-person should be the ultimate aim, the UN Sustainable Development Goals are full of nice-to-haves.” … “What, like no poverty?!” @greenlibdems.org.uk

The United Kingdom is at its best when we’re true to our values: tolerance, decency, respect for individual freedom and the rule of law. We can't let Nigel Farage throw that all away by turning Britain into Trump’s America. Choose a brighter future with the Liberal Democrats.

Good outline of a common misconception of what better economics could be It is NOT fitting nature with a $ figure It IS having nature as a core goal alongside climate, equality, health, democracy, opportunity +++ @greenlibdems.org.uk trellis.net/article/dang...

The view doesn’t stop my visceral anger spilling over at the housing failures in Lewisham It’s emotionally overwhelming But we take it up. We make sure people have someone in their corner who won’t give up, forget about them, or pass them off to someone else’s responsibility 🧡

Taken before I lost a fight with a letterbox 📮 The wire wasn’t half as sharp as the sentiment toward Labour And the sharp desire for a far far more positive and kind politics in Catford South, Lewisham, nationally, and globally 🔶

🫳🎤 indeed! Ballots in actual boxes 🧡

This is the kind of warning Europe and the UK needs

Positive signs from the @iea.org that low-emission power, grids, and storage are dominating power sector jobs - and the power sector is dominating energy industry job creation. Getting people is still tough. More thoughts: criticalmass-sustainability.com/2025/10/08/t... @greenlibdems.org.uk

Passfields power hour in the sun 🌞 Lots of casework taken up across far too many housing failures for far too many people

After 3 months of resident and Lewisham @libdems.org.uk nagging, the Arngask Road fridge is gone! As bizarre and horrifying as the world is now, take the small wins alongside the bigger campaigns, one bit of fly tipping at a time 😅

Great podcast to start the year with hope on all things climate and sustainability shakennotburned.beehiiv.com/p/sustainabi...

This is a new cruel disgusting low for the UK government and a Labour Party that has gone so so far away from what most people would think of as its original values www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

New economics needs two things in 2026 to accelerate the move away from GDP and growth-at-all-costs toward judging society based on what matters for people and the environment 1️⃣ Clarity on the end point 2️⃣ A transition plan @greenlibdems.org.uk criticalmass-sustainability.com/2026/01/13/n...

🫳🏻🎤

You laugh at the irony but despair at the state of fly tipping across Catford South and Lewisham The Lewisham @libdems.org.uk consistently report and get it cleared Hopefully after May’s elections there’ll be a real opposition to drive home the improvement needed 🔶

Great morning speaking with our neighbours in Catford South 🧡 But frustrating The housing failings in Lewisham across different providers and the council itself is heartbreaking at times It doesn’t need to be like this. It can be better Here’s to new opposition come May 🔶

Different day. Different team 🔶 Same Catford South cold. Same warm reception 🧡 @chrishogben.bsky.social

Great read having been a player and now fan in a few different worlds of UK cricket www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/j...

Great reception in the Catford South cold ❄️ Matching scarves completely accidental🧣 Here’s to the reception also continuing to warm up to May’s election And some positive opposition back on Lewisham Council 🔶

A great outline of the energy transition’s momentum going into 2026 @greenlibdems.org.uk rmi.org/the-energy-t...

Unbelievably wrong and dangerous action from the USA. Also extending a terrible precedent of zero global accountability

Ed?

Thoughts on climate, sustainability, and systems change going into 2026 🌍 @greenlibdems.org.uk criticalmass-sustainability.com/2025/12/16/2...

The best antidote to news and social media You only need to speak to a handful of people in a community, local businesses, or on their doorsteps to know politics doesn’t have to be as bad as it seems As divisive and hate filled as it seems It can be better 🧡

Over 80% of offsets fail. And carbon markets are a total system failure The majority of effort should still focus on DIRECT impact. But whatever CSR budget you might have, fund positive impact. Not greenwashing. @greenlibdems.org.uk www.hfsresearch.com/research/csr...

Encouraged by the interim report from the UN High-Level Expert Group on Beyond GDP Although there needs to be more focus on the step-by-step unpicking of current systems and transition planning from where we are now to the final output @greenlibdems.org.uk www.un.org/en/beyondGDP...

This seems like an incredible carbon capture development... anyone know whether and what the catch might be? @greenlibdems.org.uk interestingengineering.com/innovation/p...

How can we keep being this cruel? Temporary refuge, 20-year waits for settling, limiting family reunions, looking for any excuse to remove support Whether I hear it from asylum seekers and charities directly, or read national news... I feel sick www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Always great to welcome @bobbywdean.bsky.social back to Lewisham 🧡

☔️ Fantastic afternoon in the Catford South rain We’re meeting so many people looking for hope and an alternative to hateful and divisive politics 🧡 A positive alternative to a Labour Lewisham Council, London Assembly, Mayor, and Government 🔶 Politics can be better @joswinson.bsky.social

When shouting about sustainability becomes optional, who isn’t staying silent? The fossil fuel industry #COP30 sees another rise in the ratio of fossil fuel lobbyists to other attendees, as more and more companies and governments stay silent @greenlibdems.org.uk

The usual daily mix of climate hope and catastrophe @greenlibdems.org.uk

Thank you @vmmchamberlain.bsky.social for joining a packed Lewisham @libdems.org.uk AGM last night 🧡 Positive politics continues in South East London heading into May’s massive council elections 🔶 @southwarklibdems.bsky.social

Voting closes tomorrow 🗳️ I would be deeply grateful for your vote to the FPC 🧡 A vote to push the party progressively on climate, economics, and positive politics 🔶 @greenlibdems.org.uk

One week left to vote 🗳️ 👇 a manifesto for pushing the Liberal Democrats progressively on climate, economics, positive politics, and beyond @greenlibdems.org.uk

The UN is taking contributions for its new Beyond GDP working group 🌐 Would encourage lots of you to submit your ideas and work! @greenlibdems.org.uk www.un.org/en/beyondGDP

Thank you so much for this @pluslibdems.bsky.social 🧡 I wish it wasn’t needed I’ve signed both as a candidate for FPC and will do anything I can to support you and to push the party back to its best progressive self if I’m successful

Voting is now open! 🗳️ I would be beyond grateful for your support to the FPC 🧡 As would so many candidates across all elections looking to keep pushing the party to be its best progressive self 🔶

Voting opens next week for @libdems.org.uk internal elections 🗳️ Here’s my manifesto for FPC, our Federal Policy Committee 🔶 To push the party progressively on climate, economics, and positive politics 🧡 @greenlibdems.org.uk

Carbon markets are failing Less than 16% of offsets are effective in reducing emissions Companies should switch their mindsets from offsetting to positive contributions - what Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) was meant to be @greenlibdems.org.uk www.theguardian.com/environment/...

📗 New Critical Mass post There is still time for you personally to get ahead of sustainability Still time for you, your teams, and your organization to be the one that policymakers, consumers, and businesses look to @greenlibdems.org.uk criticalmass-sustainability.com/2025/10/02/t...
