One million young people are not in work or education, and we're all scared about the climate crisis.
We think there's a pretty obvious solution.

🎤 "I'm gobsmacked that Labour/SNP elected MPs can't say clearly that they would never go forward with Rosebank".
Some of our young people got on air to share their opinions on Jackdaws approval today:
Green New Deal Rising retweeted
Jackdaw WON'T:
- Have any meaningful impact on UK energy security
- Bring down our energy bills
- Stop the decline in the North Sea jobs
New oil and gas fields are simply not compatible with safe climate limits. Labour MUST reject Rosebank

Bring your anger. Bring your friends. Bring your voice.
Climate destruction is here and yet today the UK gov have backed deathly fossil fuels.
But there's still time to #StopRosebank

"Climate jobs could save my generation from the NEET crisis. The answer isn't just any jobs. It's well paid, secure jobs, that protect our future from the biggest threat we face: climate change."

By-election is over, and Zack pushed Labour to the smallest majority ever in the seat they've held since it was created.
This is a wake up call - now Labour must reject new oil and gas.
👷“We all deserve a role, and a well paid job fighting the climate crisis”
Our message to Andy Burnham from outside the Labour Party Conference:
Green New Deal Rising retweeted
Protestors warming up at the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool. @GNDRising hoping to send (the real) Andy Burnham their message on lack of jobs for young people.
Today we're in Liverpool calling for Andy Burnham to give us jobs for our future.
We’re demanding that the government gets serious about tackling the climate emergency and youth unemployment crisis by delivering thousands of good climate jobs.

Andy Burnham’s government is considering approving new drilling in the North Sea in the middle of a climate crisis.
We can't let this happen.
Take action with us and write to your Labour MP to get them to stand up for our future 👇 gndrising.org/campaigns/tell…

More than 50 organisations, from Greenpeace to Friends of the Earth, have written to the prime minister demanding he name fossil fuels as the cause of this summer’s extreme weather. @GNDRising

Today @GNDRising has coordinated 50 groups asking @andyburnham to end his silence on climate change.
If we can't trust our leaders to be truthful about the problem, how can we trust them to come up with the solution.

Our message to the new Prime Minister.
What we’re asking for isn’t radical - a decent job, somewhere to live, places to meet our friends, a safe climate.
We deserve a future we can look forward to. And we're getting organised to win it.
Join us.
Agree? Add your name to tell Andy Burnham to protect our future 👇👇 gndrising.org/campaigns/andy…
Burnham’s victory in Makerfield is clearly the nail in the coffin of Keir Starmer’s disastrous government.
BUT - a change of Prime Minister alone cannot beat Reform or deliver the change people deserve. For that, we need different and bolder policies.
🧵
We are tired of governments failing to act on the crises our generation faces. We need leaders unapologetically committed to building a hopeful future for all of us - one with decent jobs, secure housing and an immediate and just transition away from fossil fuels.
Agree?
Sign our petition calling on Andy Burnham to commit to an agenda of bold climate action, a fairer economy and redistribution of wealth, public ownership of basic services to bring down bills and a government that cares for all in our society.
