Interesting idea from Wera Hobhouse to offset domestic costs such as installing solar panels and heat pumps against income tax.

Apologies for having to link back to the birdsite for the video!

“This morning I joined @CarolineLucas' in calling out fossil fuel subsidies during a cost of living crisis. The Government seems to have no money for working people, yet when it comes to fossil fuel companies they have found £13.6 billion since the Paris Agreement...”

I'm pleased to announce that I'm now an Accredited Green Liberal Democrat!

I'm also standing in May's local council elections in my local ward of Banwell and Winscombe.

My thanks to @KeatingPatrick who set me off on this journey at the end of last year.

We have an opportunity to act on climate change and biodiversity to build a Greener, Cleaner, Healthier Community.

The Guardian

'The Conservatives have scrapped the Green Homes Grant, taking us backwards.

Liberal Democrats would upgrade insulation in all existing homes by 2030, creating thousands of new green jobs. We would also require all new homes to be eco-friendly and increase minimum energy efficiency standards for privately rented properties.'

A fair deal for our environment

Everyone should be able to enjoy the benefits of our wonderful natural environment, and our children should inherit the future they deserve.

@WGK90 The Libdems set out policies both in their GE19 manifesto and as described by #GreenLibdems

It's a bit more than ambition to be fair. And renewables were tripled under Ed Davey as Environment Minister.

But I'm all for the Green Party pushing for maximum protection for the environment and combating climate change that can be adopted by people quickly and with minimum disruption and with maximum beneficial impact.
