According to GNI, we are moving towards fully renewable gas problem solved we won't need to import fracked gas from the US.

The moderates are in fact the extremists as there are no non radical futures, and clinging to the status quo, is a dead end

Hi James, thanks for all you are doing. I've been looking at the chart for 5 minutes. Are you saying we are on track for scenario 8.5, the worst pathway in IPCC reports? Also what are HGs in the graph?

It's a disgrace and absolute failure of vision of Galwaycoco. They want a bypass, even though they don't ever reduce congestion in the long run. And they are holding active and public transport schemes hostage until they get what they want the quick fix for the status quo.

There are some local government reps. Governor of LA etc. Not that I've been following it much I have very little hope in the COP these days, the most hopeful thing about it is indigenous people protesting and obstructing there

I would love to get a heat pump but fear my house is not air tight enough.

What's the name of podcast please.

Over 25 years ago at uni they were teaching us to monetise ecosystems services, to reduce nature to a number that works within this misguided economic narrative is feeding into and endorsing that way of thinking. I don't think monotising nature has protected it at all.

I'm not surprised at stupid proposals anymore. Its a good idea to cut down rainforest plant up monocultures of palm oil so we can tell ourselves that we are flying with less emissions, (even if that is NOT true) what a joke.

Why Spongy Cities?

1️⃣ To absorb floods, not suffer them.
2️⃣ To recharge groundwater & cool microclimates.
3️⃣ To turn rain into life — not runoff.
4️⃣ To make cities breathe, not choke.
5️⃣ To create natural immunity green spaces to save lives from pandemics.

🌱 A spongy city mimics nature’s wisdom

Really disturbing footage.
