"The planning system is vital in achieving our net zero future and in securing the climate resilience of communities. It is at the heart of giving people a real voice in tackling the climate crisis. That is why Lord Ravensdale’s amendment 114 supported by Lord Krebs, Baroness Young and

@ecotricity.bsky.social Giga Poll results... 61% say climate change threatens their family’s future 66% agree it is real and must be tackled 59% think the move to electric vehicles is a good thing Interesting results - which mirror what we hear from communities www.ecotricity.co.uk/our-news/202...

Storm Floris barreled into Scotland in August with 134 mph winds & power cuts—an extreme event not expected in summer. Climate change is shifting the norms and our planning must catch up. Communities need stronger, climate-smart standards and powers in housing & infrastructure. #RightToPlan

Another week, another weather warning. Meanwhile, communities still lack the power to demand what they need to fight the impacts of the #ClimateCrisis. Why? Because current planning rules block councils from going beyond national standards — even in the face of the climate crisis....

Planning isn’t working. Cold homes. Lost green space. Profit before people. We're fighting for the Right to Plan — a future where communities, not developers, shape what gets built. Join us: www.rightscommunityaction.co.uk #RightToPlan #PlanningJustice #ClimateAction

Parliament may be in recess, but the Planning & Infrastructure Bill isn’t going anywhere. This legislation risks tearing down local democratic planning in favour of fast-track developments and centralised control - we need more community input, not less.

We had an amazing time at Stainsby Festival connecting with festival-goers, sharing stories, and talking about building power from the ground up. From powerful conversations to muddy boots and music in the air — it was grassroots activism at its finest.

“The End of Democratic Planning?” That’s what’s at stake with the upcoming Planning & Infrastructure Bill. It paves the way for nationally-led decision-making, sidelining local councils - and our communities - from planning processes that affect housing, green space, and local infrastructure.

We're at the Stainsby Festival this weekend! Come find us along with our local coordinators from Hull & Skegness — we're here for the music, dancing and the movement for justice. Let’s talk rights, resistance & building power together. #StainsbyFestival #PeoplePower #WeAreHere

Cold, poorly insulated homes aren’t just bad for health—they’re a climate issue. In the UK, housing accounts for nearly a fifth of carbon emissions. Yet too often local voices calling for energy-efficient, affordable homes are ignored We’re fighting for communities to be able to demand better.

🌱 Imagine turning disused land in your neighbourhood into a shared orchard or veggie garden. Thanks to IncredibleEdible it’s already happening—from Todmorden to Manchester to Hackney.

What if nature had legal rights? Antarctica, “too wild for humans to rule,” should be legally recognised as a person in law to protect it, says Cormac Cullinan. At RCA, we believe radical ideas shift power to people and planet. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

As Australia pushes to host #COP31, its slow climate progress raises big questions. Emissions have barely dropped, while communities call for faster, fairer action. We back local leadership & legal power to deliver real solutions—because communities can’t wait.

Energy efficiency crisis - the government plans to build 1.5 million homes without adequate energy efficiency standards. Unaffordable homes. Higher bills. Less say. #PlanningAndInfrastructureBill #Haveasay

Local democracy crisis - the #PlanningAndInfrastructurebill ends an era of local democratic planning in England. The new national scheme of delegation means that officers will be making most of the decisions, not elected representatives.
