Helen Tandy, Director
It’s only Wednesday yet my heart wants to sink with each and every news article I read.
In the U.K. most of us are worried about keeping a roof over our head with rising mortgage rates and rent, food on our table with rising food costs. Then we watch the news and see the devastating weather events which will only further impact on food prices yet….our….government is talking about Carbon Capture & Storage (that old chestnut) and drilling for new oil…….
I moved my career focus to help clients avoid investing in destructive companies, now via Castlefield. I’m our Carbon Literacy trainer, heading our #NetZero project supported by Positive Planet
In my spare time as you know Director of not for profit Eco Communities supporting projects around sustainability, plastic pollution, littering, sustainable food….
This all feels so insignificant when in a few weeks the government can trash so many environmental policies and bring in policies which will destroy our planet. I am starting to understand why we have a problem with Climate Anxiety around the world.
via Guardian, George Monbiot ‘Sunak, Trump and many others like them are not just desperate politicians who will try anything to retain or regain power (though they are that). Nor are they simply representatives of capital. They are representatives of the dirtiest, most destructive varieties of capital, the varieties engaged in a war against humanity. In the conflict between the two existential crises, they know which side they’re on’ LINK
