.@BorisJohnson stop importing Russian oil! It's funding Putin's war and fuelling the climate crisis. Putin’s former adviser has said that banning Russian fossil fuels could stop the war. Boost renewables and household energy efficiency instead. #OilFuelsWar


In contrast, the combined pulp, paper, and print sector is one of the lowest industrial emitters at 0.8% of the world’s GHG emissions.


Electronic communications have a larger environmental impact than paper/print. The contribution of ICT to greenhouse gas emission in 2018 was about 1.5%. ICT will account for as much as 14% for the total global footprint by 2040.


Paper is one of the most recycled products in the world, and we need to work together to keep driving that task. The 2020 paper recycling rate came in at 65.7%, a consistently high rate, according to the American Forest & Paper Association.


Excellent thread We saw the same issue when we visited a gigantic circulating globe hung in the nave of Peter Mancroft Church recently. We commented then how much water there was compared with the conventional projection.

Great thread about the world map we all know and why it's both wrong and harmful

You must listen to @StopSizewellC, @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @KwasiKwarteng “Sizewell C is the wrong project in the wrong place It doesn’t belong in a truly green net zero strategy It's too risky, too unproven, too expensive - & too late" #SayNo2SizewellC eadt.co.uk/news/stop-size…

Universal Credit cuts due 6th October. It doesn't have to be like this. The government must give families the support they need and #KeepTheLifeline #campaign

Brilliant thread from @doug_parr on #nuclear energy. Click "Show this thread" in the tweet below and read the lot. It is time well spent! #StopSizewellC

OK so we're going to have to talk about UK government's increasingly irrational obsession with #nuclear power again. Sigh It matters because nuclear is now an *obstacle* to delivering rapid emissions cuts in UK If that sounds wrong or weird, read on ft.com/content/d115c0…

Anyone else think that @Drupa’s Embrace the Future slogan needs to be modified for this socially distanced pandemic period. How about Take a peek at the future – but on no account touch it? #Donotembracethefuture


This is urgent, @OliverDowden. Our theatres, music venues & performing arts companies are on the brink of ruin. We need them to survive. They need urgent investment and clear plans from government. Please, act now #ForTheArts. @Public_Campaign campaignforthearts.org
