People's homes are being destroyed by the impacts of climate change. That's why we're challenging the government in court over their weak climate adaptation plans...

Great new research by Friends of the Earth. 💡

Onshore wind and solar projects could provide enough electricity to power all the households in England two and a half times over.

Renewables are the future and we must keep investing in them.

NEW 🚨 Dozens of organisations are calling for change as they reveal wind turbines are being 'unfairly singled out' in planning rules.

It's blindingly obvious that to bring down electricity bills we MUST get more renewables onto the grid.

🚨 BREAKING: Our research reveals England could produce 13 TIMES MORE renewable energy, using less than 3% of land!

We could power 83 MILLION homes with clean energy, and end our reliance on fossil fuels...

By 2100 the cost of climate damage is projected to increase to 7.4% of the UK's GDP.

So I asked the Chancellor whether he's looked at the cost of failing to invest in climate adaptation.

It would seem he doesn't know the difference between mitigation & adaptation.

Thousands of schools across south-east Asia are closing down due to unbearable heat.

While our politicians dither and delay, young people in climate-impacted areas are bearing the consequences.

Rishi Sunak needs to take responsibility, starting with an end to new oil and gas.

Signed 😊

Renewable energy has overtaken gas in the UK this winter, but new fields like Rosebank stand in the way of fulfilling our full clean energy potential.

We can only achieve real energy security by moving away from volatile fossil fuels and focusing on homegrown renewables.

A great little YouTube video to inspire us all!

Energy, engagement and determination all so clearly on show at the first session of the Schools' Climate Education South Yorkshire SY schools’ conference. Young people are showing us the way. We adults need to step up.

While energy firms make £1bn a week in profits, households struggle with energy bills that are still 60% higher than they were in 2021. And nearly 10 million people live in cold homes which make them miserable and ill. How can this be right? #leftoutinthecold
