• 24 Sep 2024 It's not just large energy generation projects that will help us get to net zero, we need to decarbonise our homes too. This will save people money on their bills, create new jobs and give our country greater energy security. Thanks to @Cenergistic, @tepeoheat and @SME4LABOUR. https://twitter.com/SME4LABOUR/status/1838237534519783917 [Source]
• 16 May 2024 RT @mcortonscott: Labour is the party of lower bills and energy resilience. Renewable energy is national security. Pass it on. [Source]
• 20 Apr 2024 Finally, we gathered a range of organisations together at the @UniofSuffolk for an event talking about the green economy, decarbonisation, skills and sustainability. Under @UKLabour, Britain can become a clean energy superpower, and Suffolk can help drive a decade of renewal. https://twitter.com/jackabbott90/status/1781584039998074936/photo/1 [Source]
• 20 Apr 2024 At @suffolknewcoll's Net Zero Skills Centre, we met with students and staff to talk about their learning experience, apprenticeships and careers, and how a Labour government could support them in that journey. It was inspiring to see students so passionate and enthusiastic. https://twitter.com/jackabbott90/status/1781583450127864091/photo/1 [Source]
• 23 Nov 2023 From community ownership of renewable energy to worker ownership of businesses, @CoopParty believes in giving people a say and a stake. By becoming a Co-operative Party member as well as a Labour member, you can have your say in our policy, in our selections and in our campaigns. [Source]
• 06 Oct 2023 A fantastic array of events that are being put on by @SME4LABOUR at #Lab23 ???? I'll be joining friends @Margaret4DR, @Lu_Hutchins, @Bill_Esterson and @_OliviaBlake for a discussion on 'Sustainable Housing for the Future: Achieving Net Zero Emissions' on Sunday morning. https://twitter.com/SME4LABOUR/status/1710316005992390862 [Source]
• 07 Sep 2023 This has the potential to be very damaging for our economy and the cost of energy in the future, and it'll make it much harder to meet our net zero targets too. The Government were warned time and time again that this would happen, but they didn't listen. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/ [Source]
• 25 Jul 2023 Leaving aside the colossally damaging impact this is having in tackling climate change, it's economically illiterate too, and is costing us dear, literally. Here, @DrSimEvans and @CarbonBrief outline the impact these u-turns have had on our energy bills. https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-cutting-the-green-crap-has-added-2-5bn-to-uk-energy-bills/ [Source]
• 31 Mar 2023 ☀️ Suffolk can be the beating heart of our country’s #netzero future. Tackling climate change and kick-starting our economy goes hand in hand, and I want Suffolk to lead that charge. There are real prizes on offer if we are ambitious and demand more. https://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/23424166.jack-abbott-suffolk-can-clean-energys-beating-heart/ [Source]
• 23 Nov 2022 Labour have pledged to upgrade the 19 million British homes that need energy efficiency improvements. This will save people money on their bills, improve our country's energy security and help us tackle climate change. It is a no-brainer. 5/5 [Source]
• 20 Oct 2022 I really enjoyed today's talk - thank you for the invite @ThursdayForum. We had a really wide ranging discussion, talking about climate change, #netzero, energy efficiency, boosting the green economy, #COP27 and much more. (Grandma was in the audience so that was a bonus!) https://twitter.com/ThursdayForum/status/1582836480057442304 [Source]
• 26 Sep 2022 In the hall for @Ed_Miliband's barnstorming speech. Labour will tackle the energy crisis and climate change, create new jobs and grow our economy, and become a world superpower in renewable energy. A fairer, greener future for our country. #Lab22 #AFairerGreenerFuture https://twitter.com/jackabbott90/status/1574370779713933314/photo/1 [Source]
• 06 Sep 2022 @BenKentish @lewis_goodall The economy and the environment are not mutually exclusive. If we invest in renewable and clean energy, it'll lower bills, create jobs and tackle climate change all at the same time. It would be economically illiterate and environmentally dangerous to slow the transition. [Source]
• 14 Aug 2022 ???? Upgrading 19 million homes is the level of ambition we need to tackle the scale of this crisis. Making our homes more energy efficient will help lower energy bills, help tackle climate change, create jobs and kickstart growth. It's a win-win-win-win. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/keir-starmer-ill-insulate-britain-27734712 [Source]
• 03 Aug 2022 Energy bills. Inflation. Real-term pay cuts. Possible recession. Winter of discontent? Housing crisis. War in Europe. Northern Ireland Protocol and the inevitable fallout. Underwhelming productivity. Net Zero and the energy transition. (I'd add crumbling public services too.) https://twitter.com/PubAffCo/status/1554837081913901056 [Source]
• 14 Jul 2022 Projects awarded CfDs this week would save £7bn, the equivalent to over £100 per home - this is the #NetZero dividend. It's concerning that some Tory leadership candidates want to slow the energy transition, harming our economic and environmental future. https://www.current-news.co.uk/cfd-projects-to-save-britain-7bn-under-current-prices/ [Source]
• 04 Apr 2022 Catastrophic climate change is not inevitable, but it will take immense political will to avert the future currently before us. If politicians continue to ignore these stark warnings, they will be condemning us to unimaginable environmental, social and economic suffering. https://twitter.com/IPCC_CH/status/1510998128224317448 [Source]
• 03 Feb 2022 Our energy should be produced and owned by our communities. With gas prices skyrocketing, we need to accelerate the move to #NetZero - now is not the time to pull the plug on community energy. Agree? Add your name to the @CoopParty's campaign ???? https://party.coop/community-energy?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=comen0222_tw [Source]
• 08 Jan 2022 A write up of my thread from yesterday for @BylinesEast: 'The climate change sceptics may have changed their clothes, but they still don’t have the answers for the future' #netzero #climatechange #energytransition #costofliving https://eastangliabylines.co.uk/the-climate-change-sceptics-may-have-changed-their-clothes-but-they-still-dont-have-the-answers-for-the-future/ [Source]
• 07 Jan 2022 You would think that providing investment and stimulus that provides jobs and growth, eases the cost of living crisis AND tackles climate change would be at the heart of the Conservative's 'levelling up' agenda. A combination of economic, social and environmental benefits. [Source]
• 07 Jan 2022 There are obviously a range of policies the Government needs to pursue to get to #NetZero, but the quicker we help people transition to renewables and clean tech in their own homes, the better they will be protected against volatile fossil fuel spikes. [Source]
• 07 Jan 2022 In the longer term it would be an absolute disaster to curtail the energy transition, as Hunt seems to suggest, and continue our overreliance on fossil fuels which has largely got us in this mess. It's not just an environmental imperative to move to #NetZero, but an economic one. [Source]
• 07 Jan 2022 *There are of course many other factors putting pressure on the cost of living, but energy prices/climate change is my main focus here. [Source]
• 07 Jan 2022 Seeing Tom Hunt emerge as a climate change sceptic doesn't come as a huge surprise. As ever he is detail light and seems to think climate is mutually exclusive to the economy. At the risk of being accused of being in the 'North London bubble', I've got some thoughts below ???? https://twitter.com/ipswichstar24/status/1479359041679753216 [Source]
• 27 Sep 2021 The ambition that is needed to tackle climate change and rebuild the UK's economy ???? https://twitter.com/jessicaelgot/status/1442451243029471234 [Source]
• 03 Aug 2021 Nigel Lawson is a leading proponent of climate change denial. He has absolutely no credibility in this area. Promoting him suggests you don't either. https://twitter.com/SteveBakerFRSA/status/1422482378673463299 [Source]
• 31 Jul 2021 Not only is it grossly negligent from an environmental perspective, it is economically illiterate too. Tackling climate change and rebuilding our economy are not mutually exclusive objectives, but intertwined necessities. https://twitter.com/James_BG/status/1421471337407725568 [Source]
• 03 Sep 2020 Isn't it the worst luck that the only expert on trade out there is a homophobe, a misogynist and a climate change denier? Really feel for Boris Johnson - he's stuck between a rock and a hard place on that one. Good to see Matt Hancock sticking with his convictions though. https://twitter.com/KayBurley/status/1301406437458038784 [Source]
• 23 Apr 2019 .@ianbirrell: Greta Thunberg teaches us about autism as much as climate change https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/apr/23/greta-thunberg-autism [Source]
• 15 Feb 2019 @benp_norton @Nickysamethy I'm not convinced that spending one day out of school will prevent them from becoming scientists. Why wait until these kids have gone through school, uni etc. to start tackling climate change? They are demanding that action is taken now by those in power, not in 5/10 years time. [Source]
• 15 Feb 2019 @CrusaderIan It's a strike, Ian. They aren't at school at the weekend. What is bizarre and dangerous is the inaction on climate change, not children's attempts to campaign on a critical issue. [Source]
• 15 Feb 2019 This is great - climate change will be the defining issue of this generation and it is absolutely right that young people are able challenge those in power about the legacy that will be left behind. #schoolstrike4climate https://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2019-02-15/hundreds-of-pupils-protest-over-climate-change [Source]

• 10 Oct 2013 (2/4) I really enjoyed showing them the turbine at the @95thBG1943 museum & hope they learned a little bit about renewable energy as well! [Source]
