The misconception that renewable energy is costlier than fossil fuels is outdated. Since 2010, solar and wind energy costs have plummeted due to technological advancements, making #ClimateAction more affordable. Check out this UN article for facts: www.un.org/en/climatech...

Congress of Business (COB25) met yesterday to discuss turning sustainability strategies. Unfortunately Barclays sponsored the event. So XR Glasgow decided to picket the event and supply all the delegates with a leaflet outlining how committed Barclays is to a sustainable future💚

Massive Attack 👏👏👏👏

Here's a question. Why, in almost all reports on Blair's statement, have his fossil fuel interests not been mentioned?

I had a right old rant about Tony Blair's ignorant, self-interested statement on The Jeremy Vine Show today. I mentioned that he has worked as a lobbyist for PetroSaudi, earning Tony Blair Associates £41,000/month, plus 2% of any deal he brokered. Starts 9 minutes in: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

What's the war criminal been up to now....

The UK Labour government is plunging 250,000 people into poverty with their cruel cuts. Poverty isn't inevitable, it's a political choice. It's time for real change. It's time to tax the rich.

@glasgowgreens.bsky.social Southside Central go and vote Green!

Polls are open to elect local councillors for two wards in Glasgow - Southside Central and North East. Please give Laura and Hayley your support to put more Green voices onto Glasgow City Council.

If you live in Southside Central, vote Laura Vroomen #1 in today's by-election. Laura would be an incredible advocate for communities in the ward @glasgowgreens.bsky.social

At its height, it's been estimated that one in every eight pounds spent in Glasgow went through the city's cooperative societies, meaning much of the wealth generated in Glasgow remained within the local economy rather than being drained away from it. #glasgow #glasgowhistory #cooperativemovement

30 years ago. We knew. Even Exxon knew.

Must watch! This fantastic CBS Sunday Morning story on the LA fires, featuring Peter Kalmus, John Valliant and Edgar McGregor was just broadcast here. Great work, CBS! @edgarmcgregor.bsky.social @climatehuman.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayGW...

We have been spreading the message on the streets of Glasgow. Around 74% of the public report feeling worried about Climate Change according to Office for National Statistics. Our messages are: 1️⃣ Insurers stop insuring Fossil Fuels 2️⃣ Government Tell the Truth 3️⃣ Stop EACOP #ExtinctionRebellion

🚨 NEW REPORT: For the first time, we reveal the staggering cost of climate change that the insurance industry has been passing on to policyholders and how insurers are digging their own (and our) graves. #InsureOurFuture #WithinOurPower [1/8] global.insure-our-future.com/scorecard/

The evidence is damning: there’s been $600 billion in climate-attributable insured weather losses this century. That’s $30B per year - and accelerating. For 15 major insurers, these losses now exceed what they earn from fossil fuel underwriting. [2/8]

Here we have it - no investment, no redistribution of wealth, just more of the same from Starmer's Labour that we had under the Tories. No wonder the right are thriving, Labour are leaving the door wide open for them. If it wasn't already clear - fresh left perspectives needed.

20 warnings and alerts in force with communities on the Severn and Vyrnwy rivers given particular warnings. Two areas in the south east are under severe flood warnings with a "significant risk to life". Climate disaster is happening now, on our doorsteps. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OsD...

#COP29 HAS FAILED. AGAIN. The truth is clear: the era of oil & gas must end — fast, fairly, forever🛢️Rich nations must provide grants not loans or it’s a death sentence for people & planet No more delays or excuses. Rise up. Rebel. Join Us ➡️http://joinxr.uk #ClimateJustice
