‘Used like taxis’ - soaring use of private jets is driving lethal climate change. #BanPrivateJets
Private flights, used by just 0.003% of the world’s population, are the most polluting form of transport. Since 2019, emissions from private jets have grown by 50%. 1/3 theguardian.com/world/2024/nov…
Too right there's anger!

Emissions from flying warm the atmosphere and make extreme weather events more common and more severe. The aviation industry needs to wake up to this fact. #FlyLess #Barcelona #Floods Flooding hits Barcelona as alert issued for torrential rain - BBC News bbc.com/news/videos/c9…
One step in the right direction
Good news that the Chancellor today decided to increase APD for private jets - according to some analysis this could raise up to £700m+ in coming years for the treasury #aviation #AutumnBudget @NEF @CBTransport

Gaza is experiencing a severe, ongoing humanitarian crisis. Banning the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), the largest provider of humanitarian assistance to the Palestinian population, is an act of genocide. Rather than wringing their hands over this criminal…

This is what determined local campaigns and good legal advisers can achieve
