“We fly lots, & we say that we shouldn't,” says @DV_Jonas, a transport geographer at @ucl & the first author of the latest study. “We are hypocrites.” Climate leadership means walking the walk, academics need to put their house in order & lead by example

In 2008, the last Labour government created the Climate Change Committee, the official advisory body. Within seven weeks of taking office the new Labour government has directly contradicted their advice.

I cannot believe that this is still being allowed to happen. What else does it take for us to stop arming and enabling this?

Beheaded children held by parents and medics. A child whose legs are placed separately into a box with the rest of his body. Tiny bodies in plastic bags. This is what Israel's #genocide against children in #Gaza looks like. A genocide that our governments support.

This is beyond horrific. New UK govt must block arms sales to Israel immediately, and use all leverage it has with international allies to stop this onslaught

If you have a vote tomorrow, please vote for a party that takes the climate crisis seriously. I can't imagine what it's like to be a child in India's current heatwaves. Trying to study. Trying to sleep. Imagine a newborn in heat. This is coming to all of us @VoteClimateUK

Have you already experienced a heatwave this year? Heatwaves debilitate children’s health and well-being and by 2050, every child on our planet – over 2 billion – will be exposed to high heatwave frequency. We need urgent #ClimateAction.

Unbelievable that people are living through this already in 2024. I keep thinking about what it would be like to have a young baby in near-50 degree heat, and be one of the many families who can't afford AC. And it's going to get even worse in years to come. This is an emergency

I don't think people elsewhere fully grasp what's happening in NCR and just how hot it is. At 7am, the tap water is boiling hot. The sun hurts the eye. There's no night time anymore. For 24 hours the temperature feels above 40C. Which means during night the water is as hot
