I really fear this.
If they give in to the big house builders that have a stranglehold over new homes over energy efficiency measures, then they are condemning the UK to fail on reaching #NetZero (figures vary considerably but up to 25% of UK emissions believed to come from domestic homes).
But equally important they are condemning residents to higher bills and leaving them tied into fossil fuel technology (gas boilers) for decades longer than necessary.
The #GlobalClimateMajority is a sleeping giant. When it awakens we will not forget all these cynical games by dishonest corporate & political actors that made empty #NetZero promises then doubled down on ALL. THAT. BURNING. Fool me once. https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/net-zero-corporate-climate-targets-1.7338799 #abpoli #cdnpoli
'We have to have a fresh approach': #SussanLey becomes first woman to lead #LiberalParty after defeating #AngusTaylor.
Libs say they need to change direction & learn from their thumping defeat.
Will they abandon fake #nuclear plans? NO
Will they support #NetZero? NO
Will they stop scapegoating #migrants? NO
Will they accept there IS a #ClimateCrisis? NO
YUP. They’ve definitely changed direction #auspol
Made a short video about wind power in the UK. Do check it out. #wind #netzero

If you are a #UK voter who wants a tough line against #immigration, to cut international #aid in favour of #defence, to defend the biological definition of a #woman, to stand with #Israel, and to insist on lower #taxes and tight control of government #spending, understanding that #netzero cannot be a priority, you now have three choices of who to vote for.
Choice is important.
We need to build a lot of #homes in #Canada but let's build them right so that they are in keeping with #NetZero or better standards

Perovskite solar cells are a promising technology for green energy, offering higher efficiency and potentially lower production costs compared to traditional silicon-based solar cells. Let's explore the environmental benefits of perovskite solar cells.

Private home owners are expected to apply piecemeal for boiler upgrade schemes and insulation schemes, some of which are doled out based on household income, others not.
It’s a mess that I had hoped #Labour would bring ‘clarity’ to.
But I feel they’ve done nothing.
#Miliband is too ‘big picture’ on the grid and nuclear power, while #Reeves has yet to convince me she buys into #NetZero or recognises the immense threat of #ClimateBreakdown.
After Blair’s bombshell, will Labour stick with or abandon #netzero? - https://www.theguardian.com/news/ng-interactive/2025/may/11/will-labour-stick-with-or-abandon-net-zero #starmer will lose our votes even faster if it doesn't
Mike Ssays Who’s funding Reform UK’s war on Net Zero?
Our latest piece dives into the millions poured in by fossil fuel backers, aviation tycoons, and climate denial networks.
It’s time to ask: whose interests are they really defending?
PowerNetZero.org is live — a prototype platform modeling net-zero power systems in 9 countries using open-source #PyPSA-Earth.
We show what infrastructure is needed, how much it costs, and where to invest for max impact.
It is an early prototype. We need funding to scale, improve, and add countries. Know a funder? Let’s talk!
"The fracturing of the consensus [on #ClimateCrisis] has been far more profound at what we'd call 'elite level' rather than at public level”
Rightwing parties #Reform and #Tories want to create division over #NetZero because it has been for some time their next culture war.
Where there is division, there are potential votes and causes to attach party loyalty to that are wider reaching than bashing migrants and trans folk.

Day 32 
Things are coming in thick and fast today, so I’ll try to summarise the major themes.
No Policies of the #Liberal, #LNP and #Coalition.
#AngusTaylor (Opposition Treasurer, Liberal) hands in his #Economics homework late, it’s got problems.
A 
derivative that is toxic 
“A Coalition government would drive the #budget deeper into #deficit over the coming two years, as the shadow finance minister, #JaneHume, insisted her party’s plan to save $17.2bn by #slashing the number of #Canberra-based #PublicServants by 41,000 through “natural attrition” was achievable.”
If returned to power, the Coalition would gut a long list of environment and clean energy programs, including #scrapping the #NetZero #Economy #Agency, reversing Labor’s #TaxBreaks for #ElectricVehicles, and redirecting money slated for the #HomeBatteries program.
#Reversing tax incentives for green hydrogen would save $1.5bn over four years, and not proceeding with Labor’s critical mineral production tax credits would save $1.2bn, the Coalition’s election policy costings show.”
