Five nuclear 'ventures' have submitted bids for £20 billion in taxpayer funding for SMRs. New #nuclear - too costly, to late for #energy and #climate crises. thetimes.com/business-money…

Tree planting and biodiversity offsets give the impression we can just create nature, or replace what we destroy. But we cannot No technology can create a 500 yr old tree, the only thing that can is 500 yrs Nature is irreplaceable, and we must treat it as such

"Costly, risky and slow" Absolutely spot-on. Nuclear has no role to play in tackling the #climate emergency theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Ed Miliband Nuclear energy is neither cheap nor clean - how do you justify throwing £8billion of taxpayers' money at #SizewellC? Flamanville (same design) just been delayed yet again. Carry on with true renewables!

Together Against Sizewell C (TASC) Department for Energy Security and Net Zero Ed Miliband Rachel Reeves Or Flammanville!!

Physicist MV Ramana on the problem with nuclear power Everything we have said and more! ⁦Dr Paul Dorfman⁩ ⁦The Labour Party⁩ ⁦Department for Energy Security and Net Zero⁩ ⁦Keir Starmer⁩ ⁦Simon Lightwood MP⁩ In a financial crisis why waste money on the wrong solution?? theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Today, it was Marseille, southern France: over 60 mm of rain in an afternoon. #ClimatechangeisWaterchange

Nuclear power is no solution It's costly to build & decommission, risk of life-threatening accidents/leaks from plants & waste. It takes too long to scale up (20+ years) Nuclear creates fewer jobs than renewables that are also cheaper, cleaner & faster theguardian.com/environment/ar…

The "new" EPR reactor in Flamanville, France finally came on line yesterday. And then shut down. Oops. It's only 12 years late and four times over budget but who's counting? EDF says it's a "long and complex startup process". Understatement any? france24.com/en/live-news/2…

victorshannock Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP There will be serious consequences for this part of #Suffolk the A12 will not cope with such an increase in traffic & as for the fencing it's everywhere, we didn't have this industrial creep with Sizewell A or B, 1 rd built for A which served both builds Philip Hunt The Labour Party

"France's newest nuclear reactor [same EPR design as SizewellC] plagued by massive delays & cost overruns, shut itself down automatically...just a day after starting up for the first time" Yet The Labour Party spaff £5.5bn on SizewellC white 🐘! #SayNo2SizewellC france24.com/en/live-news/2…

Oh dear it’s not looking good for that #nuclear reactor on #teesside

"...Moscow’s 2022 violent takeover of two atomic energy stations should serve as a “wake up call to the world”...nuclear terrorism...The distinction between tactical nuclear weapons & civil nuclear facilities looks increasingly blurred..." #SayNo2SizewellC theguardian.com/books/article/…

The latest dose of shocking images from the brilliant Yellow Dot Studios Remember, this is just a seven day snippet of the mayhem a broken climate is bringing. Essential viewing.

How many wind-farms shut themselves down on 1st day? After 12 year delay & 4 times over budget?! The Ed Miliband Claire Coutinho obsession with disastrous "new" nuclear is nuts!! Dr Paul Dorfman france24.com/en/live-news/2…

As questions are raised of the Sicilian government as to why preparations were not made, despite decades of warnings that climate change would destroy the island's water security, worth considering how well prepared the UK is. I think you can guess the answer.

"Apparently, it’s perfectly fine [for The Labour Party] to let children go hungry while pensioners shiver in the dark in exchange for an entirely futile energy project[SizewellC] that will keep no-one warm anytime soon, if at all" #SayNo2SizewellC Rachel Reeves morningstaronline.co.uk/article/billio…
