2024 set to be among the top 2 years ever recorded

This is now 9 years after the Paris Agreement, in which governments promised to reduce emissions, but were lobbied into doublespeak separating GHGs from fossil fuels

In 2022, 91 cyclists were killed by motorists in the UK. Not a single person was killed by a cyclist

Cyclists account for 2% of road casulaties. 98% of people killed or injured on the road are hit by vehicles

So guess which are targeted by No 10? cyclingweekly.com/news/dangerous…

So refusing the stop arming Israel and demand a ceasefire no longer makes any sense, even politically, even in the context of the most basic party political goal there is: winning votes x.com/Caabu/status/1…

Another month, another four weeks of incoherent strategy by oil producers: Their upstream volume keeps going up (because they say it has to meet demand)

But mid- downstream output continues to shrink, month on month, because oil demand is in terminal decline

Record NHS waiting lists, child poverty, food bank use, water pollution

And the government decides this is what needs fixing. Proof if it was needed that the Conservative Party has given up trying to run the county to die fighting hollow culture wars

The sheer post-truth brass necking having a Tory ministry define what constitutes 'common sense'

She wouldn't know common sense if it sold her £20bn worth of useless PPE then leaked her WhatsApp to scammers x.com/henryriley1/st…

Might just be me.

But if I was exec of an oil company responsible for the biggest oil spill in US history - one which cost me and my shareholders $64 bn - I wouldn't be pitching drilling for oil in the Same Precise Shelf

Hear me out:

If a 'self-regulating' market requires govts to spend $50 bn a year destroying the only climate-regulating, water-cleaning, food-producing resource we have... maybe that market is trash and needs transforming?

How are fossil fuel firms so good at making money?*

Around about the top 1 reason would be: they get other people to fund investment. They win a rigged game and don't need to make their business make business sense

We pay, they profit
