“Each return flight pumps out at least 0.7 tons of CO2 per passenger, making the [British] delegation's flights' total carbon footprint at least 338 tons of CO2.” There is no real justification for us sending 470 delegates to COP29, more than any other country. https://x.com/BenObeseJecty/status/1858090599003390230/photo/1 [Source] -
4 Nov 2024: Parliamentary Speech
Given the speed and alacrity with which the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero has covered the countryside with solar panels, it should come as no surprise that the Government are so eager to force farmers out of business, freeing up swathes of the countryside to be sold to developers for more of the same. The Government will be forced into rowing back on this policy, whether it be now or after the visual spectacle of demonstrating farmers blockading Parliament Square with tractors. I urge the Government to do the right thing now, rather than being forced to do so in a few weeks.

“The clean energy auction cost £1.5bn. The Winter Fuel Payment is £1.4hn.

The decision by Ed Miliband to force through the 3,000 acre Sunnica Energy Farm across farmland in Cambridgeshire and Suffolk is a prime example of how Labour are willing to jeopardise our food security and ignore rural communities in pursuit of net zero. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/07/13/fears-food-security-miliband-solar-farm/ [Source] -

The broader question now with regards to Labour’s ill-fated £28bn green infrastructure u-turn is how do they achieve their wider pledge of decarbonisation by 2030? How are the “fully costed” aims below achieved at a fraction of the investment? https://labour.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Mission-Climate.pdf https://twitter.com/BenObeseJecty/status/1755658416549187841/photo/1 [Source] -

Given how toxic the ULEZ expansion has become, the impact of a zero emissions zone in Central London that would inevitably expand, a la ULEZ, makes it politically expedient not to pursue it ahead of an election… …but should Sadiq Khan win a third term… https://www.ft.com/content/d373d159-7a96-427a-9d97-14542eac8527 [Source] -

@Kevin_Maguire @DailyMirror The Daily Mirror print and distribute 250,000+ newspapers the length and breadth of the country every day. Presumably that’s done completely using renewable energy right? [Source] -

In a little over the time I’ve been alive the world’s population has doubled, broadly increasing by 1 billion people each decade. Given the strain this places on resources it’s amazing how little this is covered relative to other aspects of climate change. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-63623307 [Source] -

Except this isn’t a photo of Rishi Sunak en route to #COP27 as @JamesMelville would like you to assume. It’s a photo of him boarding an RAF flight in August 2020. That said, how is he supposed to get there if not by plane? https://twitter.com/JamesMelville/status/1589398569160613888 [Source] -

@JamesMelville @JuliaHB1 This photo is from Aug 2020 and the jet belonged to the RAF. It has nothing to do with #COP27. This wouldn’t be fake news would it? https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/millionaire-rishi-sunak-films-clip-22571467.amp [Source] -

This winter Gary Lineker will be covering the World Cup in Qatar, the country with the highest CO2 emissions per capita. Given he’ll likely fly there too, Perhaps he should ease off on the climate change chest-poking. https://twitter.com/GaryLineker/status/1547258754227486723 [Source] -

Having been the first UK city to declare a climate emergency it’s farcical that Bristol’s outgoing mayor, Marvin Rees, made a 9,000 mile round trip flight to Vancouver to give a TED Talk on…. how to reduce CO2 emissions. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-61596817?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=KARANGA [Source] -

Fascinating discussion on #R4Today regarding empty shelves and high job vacancies. Cost-price increases, CO2 shortages, global shipping issues, Covid causing more young people in full-time education and the withdrawal of over-50s from the labour market. Brexit not blamed once. [Source] -

@OwenJones84 @labourlewis The fact that Clive Lewis can discuss Afghanistan for 15mins mentioning climate change and food security before tribal conflict, poppy farming or the Taliban suggests he didn’t really understand why he was there at all. Hardly surprising he wasn’t asked to speak in the debate. [Source] -
23 Aug 2021: Tweet
In over 20mins on @novaramedia Clive Lewis somehow manages to talk about Afghanistan without mentioning the Taliban, or Al-Qaeda, but manages BLM, Climate Change and ‘the 1%’. Any solution for Afghanistan is far more complex than the over-simplification @labourlewis offers here. https://twitter.com/BenObeseJecty/status/1429894908383571977/video/1 [Source] -

@260Marathon @DonNantwich @BBCPolitics Vehicle Excise Duty is based on CO2 emissions, of which a bike produces zero. So how would you calculate a payment for cyclists using a non-polluting mode of transport? https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables [Source] -

On the windiest day of the year, good to see more investment in offshore wind with a further £95m pledged and the creation of another 6000 new jobs Green energy is the direction of travel for the sector and this puts the UK on the front foot for meeting it’s carbon neutral goals https://twitter.com/SciTechgovuk/status/1369913529411731459 [Source] -

A pledge by the PM to lead a green industrial revolution, with an investment of £160m to fund green-collar jobs and make Britain the world leader in renewable energy. Significant investment will further increase Britain’s position in the industry vanguard. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/news/boris-johnson-pledges-wind-power-will-run-every-home-in-britain-by-2030-sh9mcwm85?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1601942014 [Source] -

This tweet by @xryouthcambs was sent from an iPad. The iPad contains rare earth metals neodymium, dysprosium and praseodymium almost exclusively mined in China.

The attack on four political party HQ’s by @BespokePanic to highlight the climate emergency (again) is another example of bored middle-class socialists using vandalism and intimidation to push their fringe agenda.

Excellent analysis by @KateAndrs. The UK’s role in climate change is one of influence (by example) rather than the limited global impact of solely achieving significant UK carbon emissions reduction. @COP26 | #ClimateChange https://twitter.com/KateAndrs/status/1225123865136893952 [Source] -

There’s an argument that a 23 year old doesn’t have the experience or maturity to be an effective MP. Nadia Whittome’s lack of comprehension of what net zero in 2030 entails is worrying for someone who claims it’s their top priority. https://twitter.com/NadiaWhittomeMP/status/1211626361217048576 [Source]
