"Tonight Iโm going to correct one big lie and tell one big truth.
First the big lie: "Get Brexit done." Boris Johnsonโs rotten deal will not get it done.
...His oven ready meal is full of chlorinated chicken and it will make us all sick."

Looks like this is well on the way to being approved in Preston. Can't understand why there isn't more of an opposition or at least some kind of debate around it. Don't people know about it? Or care?
"Incineration results in high levels of greenhouse gas #emissions. For every tonne of waste burned, typically more than 1 tonne of CO2 is released into the atmosphere. This means incineration has a higher carbon intensity than the conventional use of fossil fuels" #BinTheBurners

Or in other words: Yet again Germany probably covered its electricity need for several hours solely with #renewables
Preliminary data by @bnetza show German renewable power production at times exceeded total demand on Sat (10 Aug)
Due to publication delay for precise data, exact renewable share on any given day remains highly uncertain for long time. CLEW background:

This is why we are still on a worst-case emissions path, which leads to a 4C+ outcome. Renewables are being installed at an unprecedented rate, but they still add up to only 2% of global primary energy, and fossil fuels are being increased even faster. ft.com/content/4c77a13a-b50bโฆ

We can turn #climatebreakdown around - but only with the political will to do what is necessary. And right now only @TheGreenParty is proposing we ditch the old ways of thinking and push forward the transformation we need across every sector of the economy.

Extreme heat is baking the Arctic. None of the 300 weather stations in Alaska have recorded a temperature below freezing since the end of June. Wildfires are burning their way through much of Siberia. This is a #climateemergency scientificamerican.com/articโฆ
