In February, a third of new UK cars had a plug, and a quarter didn't have an engine. Good news for the climate and for clean air. The government target for 2025 is 28% full electric; but 25% is close enough for the car industry to avoid fines. www.smmt.co.uk/evs-account-...

Chevron want to drill for fossil fuels in Greece’s sea – on the very edge of a Marine Protected Area. We wrote to the EU last year about Greece repeatedly approving of oil drilling and now we're urging them to pay attention. www.clientearth.org/latest/press...

Thames Water have been allowed to add another £3 billion to their existing £19 billion of debt. They've run up this bill by paying out huge amounts to bosses and shareholders instead of investing in our water infrastructure. It's time for water to be run for people, not profit.
REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE.
