At the end of November, an estimated 800K dunums of #Palestine|ian land with olive trees have not been harvested due to Israeli settler violence + access restrictions. Many families who rely on the olive harvest risk losing their income for the entire year.

On #WorldOliveTreeDay, the @UNinPalestine calls for the protection of olive trees & Palestinian farmers amidst escalating Israeli settler violence.

Wow!! Not only does Energy Secretary admit new oil & gas won't bring energy bills down - she also admits that more renewables like wind & solar *will*. Yet what do we get from this Govt? New oil & gas licences. Has Rishi Sunak been reading his energy policy documents upside down?
'It wouldn't necessarily bring energy bills down'
Energy and Net Zero Secretary Claire Coutinho was questioned on #BBCBreakfast about plans to annually award licences for oil and gas projects in the North Sea

The Rt Revd Roger Morris, @BishColchester and Chelmsford Diocese Lead for the Environment has issued a statement about the Prime Minister's announcement on Net Zero policies. You can read it here buff.ly/3rf5pdr

This government is of grave concern: incapable of risk & cost analysis, devoid of leadership, obtuse, utterly cynical in political word games and deceit, lacking proper judgement, unable to plan and deliver basic changes, without capacity to govern or imagine a different future.
The UK Government has announced a new approach to reaching Net Zero. The CCC has issued its response.
ALT “The Government not only has a legal obligation to meet its Net Zero 2050 target. It also has a commitment to hit the interim emission reduction targets it has put into law. “The Climate Change Committee has an obligation to assess progress towards those targets. In June, we said in our Progress Report that we were less confident in the Government’s ability to deliver its 2030 and 2035 commitments than we were a year previously. “We need go away and do the calculations, but today’s announcement is likely to take the UK further away from being able to meet its legal commitments. This, coupled with the recent unsuccessful offshore wind auction, gives us concern. “More action is needed and we await the Government’s new plan for meeting their targets and look forward to receiving their response to our Progress Report, expected at the end of October.” Professor Piers Forster, Chair of the Climate Change Committee

Posting these two articles for my own sanity and to mark moment of 'post-truth' from PM @RishiSunak today regarding new oil and gas. With right ambition renewable energy could meet our energy security, climate change and job creation needs before 2050 ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/energy/ne…

It is announced today that I have been appointed Dean of Southwark. To be entrusted with this ministry makes my heart very grateful and a little daunted.

Thank you @BarryGardiner. Finally a clear voice that grasps the seriousness of what we face and the lack of political will to act at speed and scale we need. Please continue this kind of conversation @BBCNewsnight we need much much more of this on mainstream national media.
“Let’s mobilise on war footing, that’s what is needed.”
Former Shadow Energy Secretary Barry Gardner says climate change is a war for survival and needs to be treated as such.

July 2023 is set to be the hottest month ever recorded.
The consequences are tragic:
Children swept away by monsoon rains.
Families running from the flames.
Workers collapsing in scorching heat.
No more hesitancy or excuses.
