The world is reducing its reliance on fossil fuels – except for in three key sectors. Dramatic changes in energy industry and EVs reducing fossil fuel use, but shipping, aviation and industry a long way from net zero. #Greenpeace #ExtinctionRebellion

Tables without food, bedrooms without beds. Grinding child poverty in Britain calls for anger – and a plan. There are things ministers must do but also actions we can take to help fellow citizens. Both are now essential.

The women being prosecuted in Great Britain for abortions. Between 1861 and November 2022, only 3 women were convicted of having an illegal abortion. But since December 2022, 1 woman has been convicted and 6 people are awaiting trial. Why the sudden rise?

British abortion law is a medieval nightmare. An increasing number of women are being prosecuted for procuring abortions and face the possibility of life imprisonment. Why are we being so polite about this outrage?

Labour scrapping £28bn green pledge could leave UK colder, sicker and poorer. Decision to abandon key policy decried as ‘economically illiterate’ reaction to short-term political pressures. #Greenpeace #ExtinctionRebellion

In a world built by plutocrats, the powerful are protected while vengeful laws silence their critics. In the UK and around the world, those who challenge rich corporations are being hounded and crushed with ever-more inventive penalties.

BREAKING: @Shell made £22 BILLION in profit last year. Just 13% of that would be enough to cancel everyone's energy debt in the UK. Tell political leaders: if you want our votes, cancel energy debt, with a proper windfall tax on energy giants NOW.
