- 'Delhi is burning. You can't imagine the heat. As you step out, it's a furnace on your body' - writes a colleague. Curious to see what the #climate attribution is here when scientists crunch the data.
- It won’t make many headlines, but transparency rules agreed at #COP26 will make it progressively harder for countries to game the system. Tough fight & significant win.
- 18 out of 23 Conservative net zero sceptics lost their seatsThese look set to be awful results for Conservatives. We’ll comment more tomorrow, but it’s clear the PM’s strategy of downplaying green issues hasn’t turned round the party’s fortunes. To rebuild, we have to offer a positive conservative vision on the environment again.
- After years of lobbying against EU electric vehicle proposals @VW now complaining EU hasn't done enough to create necessary EV infrastructure - almost beyond parody
- Top gas exporters note to UN at end of #COP26 complains of 'cancel culture on hydrocarbons,' notes 'rising pressure' on industry re #climate targets. Smacks of a sector feeling the heat, in more ways than one. unfccc.int/sites/default/…
- Can't move in Canary Wharf without seeing one of these ads. So simple & effective.
