Coming soon...
@LetsGo_Zero enables schools to make a public commitment & take action themselves to reduce their own climate impact. It will demonstrate to national government that there is a substantial demand amongst teachers and pupils to become zero carbon.

Cautionary words for anyone tempted to say "this must be good for the climate" or, worse, "this shows we can tackle climate change".
COVID19 is a re-framing of the climate issues - a dramatically changed context for the response - but those climate issues haven't gone away.
We often hear it said, in certain circles, that the current #COVIDー19 crisis would be "good for the climate and the environment," or that we ought "to apply the same measures against climate change." Here is why I think this is wrong. 1/..
