COP30 has delivered less than hoped for & less than what is needed.
But one light in the darkness is the recognition of the need for ‘information integrity’.
The fight for a safe climate has the fight against disinformation at his heart, and now, its rightful place in the treaty text.
NEW: > 300 lobbyists representing industrial agriculture have attended this year’s UN climate talks taking place in the Brazilian Amazon, where the industry is the leading cause of deforestation 1/

A day after the Spending Review, the Govt has quietly announced its ending the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme after 2027/28
The PSDS supports insulation, solar & heat pumps in the public sector like schools & hospitals
Lowering their energy bills - which taxpayers fund.

Firms are criticised for a reliance on vague carbon removals, weak no-deforestation claims and a lack of progress on key transitions

By odd, I mean there’s a lot of bollocks in it and shouldn't be taken seriously 🧵🧵
BBC muzzling one of its best presenters from making an excellent, wholly factual programme because heat pumps are “controversial”. An organisation badly in need of new leadership.
