- Reposted by Nick OldridgeA Government report last week highlighted that ecosystem collapse threatens our economy, our food and our national security. Has your MP signed the Parliamentary Call for a prime-time televised emergency briefing on the #climate and #nature crisis yet? People have a right to know #NEB2025

- Reposted by Nick OldridgeAt the National Emergency Briefing @newscientist.com had a chat with our food expert @profpaulbehrens.bsky.social who highlighted how badly we underestimate how stongly other people support climate action. We will be tackling this head on with the People's Emergency Briefing. #netzero
- Reposted by Nick OldridgeThank you to @newscientist.com for this fantastic review of the National Emergency Briefing. The briefing now needs to go to the country. So we're making a film.

- The British press were certain climate change wasn't real, now they are very clear it costs too much and are making the most ridiculous claims about cost (fed by think tanks). I think the words of Carl Sagan are very relevant here... #NetZero
- The @nebriefing.bsky.social is going international….. 🔥 The following countries are interested in hosting their own briefing.

- CO2 is a cumulative problem, so if you are in the unenviable position of making policy to solve it, you need to briefed on the latest science…
- Net zero by 2050 to limit warming to 1.5°C. That may have been plausible 10 years ago, but the continued rise of emissions means that there is effectively no carbon budget left for 1.5. It is cumulative emissions that drives warming. 1/6 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

- Is your MP signed up?
- Shocker, research shows the average estimate of the cost of net zero is 28% of GDP‼️ It's £320bn in total, sounds a lot but it's only 0.2% of GDP. Which is about £1.30 per person, per week! Let's communicate better... Everything Electric full episode here; youtube.com/watch?si=0ec...
