We need to make a movement that’s unstoppable if we want a liveable planet.

We need to at least hit the 25% Social Tipping Point.

You don’t have to be a leader. But you do need to have the guts to be a follower.

Who’s in?

09/09/2026

Though the recent headlines from the UN Climate Change agency that surpassing 1.5’C of global heating is now unavoidable, those of us who work in climate have known this for years.

AND YET….

- we have not given up
- we will not give up
- we will keep on fighting and demanding action from those in power
- we will keep on trying to encourage others to join us to help magnify our collective voices

Why? Because every tonne of Greenhouse Gases not emitted makes a difference, every fraction of a degree we don’t warm counts and every life matters.

DM or comment for more info on all the gentle, accessible, non-judgemental ways you can join in and help.

All my love, always,

✏️ Back to Climate School

Four easy ways to boost your climate knowledge this year*
* three of them are FREE

- 🌍 1. Climate Confidence Carbon Literacy Training - Climate Confidence is Contented Earth’s fully-accredited Carbon Literacy live online course, designed for individuals, employees and those who are self-employed who want to make a positive change. Participants will gain the confidence to create and implement their climate action plan and communicate with others about the climate crisis and inspire them to take action as well.
- 🎧 2. ECO LISTEN Recommendations - This group is for people who have lots on their plate, but can squeeze in a listen when they are cooking, cleaning or commuting. I strongly believe that the more we understand the more empowered and impassioned we feel to take action, and that by listening and learning more, we’ll get to a place where we naturally take action.
- Comment LISTEN and I will DM you the links to join
- ☝️3. Just One Thing (ECO ACTIONS)
- Just One Thing Weekly WhatsApp - I share just one action each week (most likely a petition to sign, but sometimes something else), and that’s it. No other chat.
- Just One Thing Monthly Emails - Each month you will receive JUST ONE action to take on climate. And over the course of one year, by taking these actions and making these changes in our lives, by the end of the 12 months you’ll be living a more climate positive life.
- Comment WEEKLY to join the weekly action group or comment MONTHLY to sign up to monthly emails.
- 🎓 4. ECO LEARN - weekly email series - each week you will receive an email with a link to a short video, podcast or article and you can learn a little more about the climate emergency and feel more confident to speak out
- Comment LEARN and I will DM you the link to sign up

Look forward to being ‘classmates’ with you 🙌

More North Sea Oil and Gas is not the answer to energy security and lower prices. Head to Stop Cambo ’s website for all the reasons why. Plus the cost of NOT tackling climate change is laid out in the The Guardian’s article “Climate damage would obliterate any economic benefits of North Sea fields, analysis shows.”

Let’s tackle the root causes of this summer’s heatwaves, wildfires and droughts:

- 🚫 say no to fossil fuels at every opportunity - email your MP telling them to & to stop Jackdaw
- 🥕 eat more plants - and far less (red) meat and dairy, which are major sources of greenhouse gas emissions
- 🗳️ always vote for people and planet every time we have the chance.

Otherwise these heatwaves will only get hotter & more frequent.

Let’s come together to slow down and halt this global heating.

(More actions in other posts on the grid.)

Then I’ll be back with more…

- Climate & Nature Happy News
- Tipping Point Tuesdays with the fabulous
- Easy Action Ideas

Plus all things climate and environment plus a good dose of social justice issues.

If that sounds good to you, then stick around and I’ll see you properly in a couple of weeks.

See you soon!

🥵 Extreme heat isn’t simply uncomfortable. it is can be deadly. The latest data estimates around 2,700 excess deaths in the UK & over 25,000 across Europe.

🌡️ Heatwaves will become hotter & more frequent as the planet continues to heat up.

💧 Droughts are becoming worse in terms of their frequency, intensity, and duration globally.

🔥 Wildfires will become more ferocious, more widespread and more common as part of our summers.

This is all at around 1.4’C of warming and will only get worse & worse until we stop emitting greenhouse gases.

❓And what is the response of our PM? He’s banning portable barbecues. Of course this is VERY sensible when 2/3rd of the UK in drought, on our fifth heatwave and wildfires are raging. We are living in a tinder box and reducing the chance of sparks is the right thing to do. BUT…… other things cause sparks: vehicles, glass bottles, ci******es, etc. Will they all be banned too? PLUS let’s think past the spark starting the fire. Why do they spread and rage? Why don’t they peter out because the spark landed on damp grass….? BECAUSE we’ve been in back to back heatwaves and in severe drought…

Let’s tackle the root causes of these heatwaves:
- 🚫 say no to fossil fuels at every opportunity - 2 minute action to in ’s bio (deadline is Monday 17th Aug)
- 🥕 eat more plants - and far less (red) meat and dairy, which are major sources of greenhouse gas emissions
- 🗳️ always vote for people and planet every time we have the chance.

Otherwise these heatwaves will only get hotter & more frequent.

Let’s come together to slow down and halt this global heating.

🥵 Things to remember during the latest heatwave this week - our FIFTH!! (This summer has felt like one rolling heatwave hasn’t it?)

🪟 Keep the sun off the glass if you can. Cover up the outside of your windows. If possible use something reflective to repel heat. Close any inside blinds or curtains as well.

💨 Let the cool air inside. First thing in the morning, & overnight where you can, open your windows to let the cooler air in. Use fans to draw the cooler air into the house.

🌿Use plants to cool you. More plants both inside and outside can help cool our surroundings. Back gardens can reduce temperatures by 5’C. Even plants on a balcony can reduce temperatures by 2.5’C.

🌡️ Heatwaves will become hotter & more frequent as the planet continues to heat up. They will only get worse & worse until we stop emitting greenhouse gases.
