@niels_corfield Certainly all up for a carbon tax, as long as the revenues are ring fenced for tackling climate change. Offsetting is voluntary, so I would hope that someone who offsets is already in the right mindset to change behaviour.

@Ultra_Damo @Sean_urphy As a shameless plug for a site I'm involved with, there's one way that you can offset your car travel for free - comparetozero.com It's run as a social enterprise and all that jazz.

26 deaths, 1000s of homes lost, 10M hectares burned, over 1B animals killed, 350M tons of CO2 released into the atmosphere ( = ⅔ of our annual emissions); and now we learn that a Govt plan to prepare for climate change-related natural disasters was left to gather dust for 1½ yrs

To those people who say that climate change is part of the normal rhythm of Earth's ecosystem and not man-made, please consider this 400,000 year climate record chart from the European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica (EPICA). Look what has happened since 1950. #ClimateChange

Coal soon history. Spain has taken just one year to reach a goal that was expected to require a decade. How? 1) Removing subsidies to coal 2) through EU ETS reform price of emitting co2 increased from 5 to 25 euro. Not complicated. #ClimateEmergency elpais.com/elpais/2020/01…

"...the only path to significant US climate action is through legislation and that lawmakers won’t be able to legislate unless they reveal how the industry has controlled the public dialogue around climate change and put a stop to its misdeeds." theguardian.com/business/2020/…

In the midst of a climate emergency, our hills are being burnt - roasting wildlife and soil and releasing great plumes of carbon - for the sake of an elite bloodsport. How much crazier could this get?

Another day of Yorkshire’s peatlands being set on fire for grouse shooting — depriving the region of wildlife, plantlife and carbon stores.🔥 Locking carbon in the hills must be central to government’s green industrial strategy for the north.⛰ What do you say, @ZacGoldsmith?

Methane is a very, very powerful greenhouse gas. When it first enters the atmosphere, it’s around 120 times more powerful than CO2 at trapping heat and 86 times stronger over a 20-year period. nyti.ms/36kPOcA

Cars in the UK produce 56,000,000 tonnes of CO2 annually. This is a quarter of the CO2 released by the Australian bush fires, since August. Difference is - a significant proportion of the bush CO2 will be reabsorbed through regrowth. #mondaythoughts #ClimateCrisis

6 out of 10 people want the government to take action to tackle climate change. Could this be 52%, but rounded up? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Landing on multi year sea ice in gnarly conditions off Humphrey Island, Antarctica. The Muller ice shelf used to extend out to hear before it collapsed due to climate change. #Antarctica #ClimateEmergency #seaice #polarcircle

@Stanford There was nothing oblivious in the article re efficiency. How does it compare to battery storage (which currently is far superior if I understand correctly)
