The world feels a whole lot more terrifying this morning - especially for any hope of climate action. Right now I feel sick. But I also know we have choices on how to respond - and will try even harder to light candles rather than curse the darkness 🕯️

The Greens now have as many seats as Reform. Will they get anywhere near as much press coverage?

Just received an invitation to take part in a research study to improve care pathways for people with MULTIMORBIDITY. It does explain this means multiple illnesses, but could it not have been titled more tactfully? How to make you feel crap. #languagematters #gbdoc

Seriously? The rest of the country is moving towards closed loops and Lothian are not even supporting new pumps unless pregnant or a child. @parthaskar we need you up here. @GBDocInfo

If you think #diabetes is a minor inconvenience, that's because you only see what's on the surface. ALL types of diabetes are serious. End the jokes & #StopTheStigma #GBDoc

My stepdad @ChrisGPackham has bared the brunt of obsessive bullies who’ve burnt down his gates, thrown dead animals into his garden + sent death threats. They spread lies and hate because he stands up for wildlife. I stand by him wholeheartedly Pls share https://t.co/koUmfVRCRg

I guess I won't be starting to cycle up Leith Walk to work, when it is all finished.
Went down for a wee look. Actually burst out laughing on the way down it was so tragic. Edinburgh has done it. They've made a brand new advisory cycle lane narrower than a pair of handlebars. @david_mccraw, @SpokesLothian, @CllrScottArthur, @susan4leithwalk, @LCyclable

It’s gone #fracking shale for gas and oil in England is 280 million years too late. 90% has leaked. How to dispose of wastewater, predict earthquakes, find remaining small patches in deep shale. How to balance climate change effects. @GeosciencesEd

Its 2023.William is on the throne. The funeral for Elizabeth went on so long Charles died before it ended. The queue to see his body was added to the one to see the queen and starts at Tebay services on the M6. Tmrw marks the 1st anniversary of the center parcs massacre.

A few quick reminders on #fracking: ❌ Fuels climate change ❌ Won't bring down bills ❌ Won’t meet our energy needs ❌ Doesn’t mean more gas for the UK ❌ Isn’t popular with the public Renewables are the real solution.

This is not an isolated story. Over 140 researchers with similar grants were in this boat. And that’s after the UK lost £1.5bn on the science programme from 2016-2020 due to Brexit. And, as the author says, UK is becoming less attractive due to Brexit. https://t.co/CjiqE19Bio

Britain has jeopardised research and made itself far less attractive to overseas scientists, says José R Penadés, a professor at Imperial College London

The Daily Mail has - you've guessed it - given over its lead comment slot today to a writer attacking the "woke" "climate alarmist" Met Office. I'd never heard of him, though. So I googled him. He's a "speech writer and consultant" for "companies operating in the energy sector"

We've launched a summer Crowdfunder appeal to raise £50,000 to keep feeding those in our community who no longer have safe access to food, a need which will only grow as the cost of living crisis continues to impact us all. If you can, please donate here: https://t.co/5v92SGtNJH
