#ClimateChange? Leaders or crooks?

To say our leaders have ‘failed’ implies they tried

No commitment to a stronger net zero target

Pledging billions of taxpayers’ money on non-solutions lobbied for by oil companies

Expanding aviation

Subsidising the burning of trees by #Drax after accepting their donation

No coherent plan across the entire #economy

Locking up activists using laws written by the #FossilFuel companies while the #climate criminals walk free

Extinction Rebellion UK · It's 2025... now what? - Extinction Rebellion UKLack of action is a death sentence for millions of people, including people right here in the UK. XRUK on 2025, at a glance: It’s now official that in 2024, global average temperatures exceeded the target limit of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Meanwhile, the mega rich billionaires in the world burned through their carbon budget […]

"Can you imagine being the UK's biggest emitter of CO2, having already been awarded £7bn in 'green subsidies' and set to receive another £2bn (XR)"

#Drax power station in the #UK burns wood, contributing to deforestation & CO2 emissions, & they lie & call that "green" (they know that's #greenwash) youtu.be/v3gABWJhIuw?feature=s

Drax is simply another example of human dishonesty, especially in regards to the #environment, on an industrial scale.

Urgent Action: Stop Disastrous Decision to Extend Drax’s Subsidies

The Government has just made the disastrous decision to hand billions more in subsidies to tree burners #Drax and Lynemouth. This is a decision to push up emissions, energy bills and profits for Drax’s shareholders. Rather than listening to the science, the Government is pouring billions more into the economic black hole of Drax.

While this decision is disappointing, it is not the end of this campaign. The fight to end dirty tree burning, and to transition to genuinely #CleanEnergy and #GreenJobs is far from over.

We need our MP’s to take action in Parliament and do everything they can to put a stop to this reckless decision. Please take the time today to make it clear to this Government and your MP that we will not stand by and allow them to pour our money into forest destruction and #pollution.
