Graffiti was a powerful form of protest in ancient Rome – as Gladiator II shows
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the walls of Pompeii’s brothel were a particular hot-spot for sexual graffiti.

How to solve Exeter's congestion problems? Good to be reminded of this graphic from the fiestsprofessor
A infographic showing thee possible uses of road space One a narrow road leading to a narrower pinch point with queuing cars, the second with the same pinch point but a wider feed of cars queuing into it (still congested), the last shows space given to a bus and cycle lane and a few cars, (but no queues).

We propose that money earmarked for offsets is used to further accelerate our decarbonisation, help implement nature positive schemes, work with suppliers & communities on their decarbonisation. The challenge we face is huge. Don't let carbon offsets fool you otherwise.

There are compelling reasons to protect forests from destruction, giving out efficient cookstoves & other ways that generate carbon credits. But these often have very little to do with climate impacts. Ditching offsets doesn't mean giving up on these important projects.

This is going to effectively throw a huge spanner into the university's 2030 net zero target. But much better to do that than continue with the fantasy that carbon offsets will get us there. The climate crisis demands rapid & deep decarbonisation. Offsets can be counterproductive to such efforts.
