I was already a climate migrant at the age of 10, and when floods washed away my family's home, we were not compensated.

Our skyrocketing energy bills have made huge profits for oil and gas companies.

Rather than line the pockets of executives, this windfall could be used to help the millions who’ll be cold or hungry this winter: gwitness.org/3gK3FD9

We agree Caroline Lucas: the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero ( ) allows the financial sector to mark its own homework.
