Greenlighting the new #Cumbrian coal mine, & opening up new #NorthSea oil & gasfields are “utterly unacceptable”: @lorddeben’s withering verdict on the UK’s loss of world leadership in addressing the #ClimateEmergency. Such a shame - in both senses.

Over in the UK, #TheGuardian newspaper has finally caught up with the fact that people take drugs amidst the beautiful fells of the #Cumbrian #lakedistrict .
Which takes me right back to a party scene I wrote for my #Brexlit #novel "Cold Island", set on the 1st of May 1997 (Tony Blair, "Things can only get better" #AncientHistory) in Loughrigg cave near #Ambleside .

Breaking: @friends_earth has launched a legal challenge to the #Cumbrian coal mine decision. "By giving go-ahead, @michaelgove has failed to account for the significant climate impacts of this mine."
I have discovered the hashtag #SheepOfMastodon!
