ALT A screenshot from the article by James Dyke, Jamie Shutler & Peter Cox, University of Exeter with recommended courses of action for universities and other organisations to follow: Exclude carbon offsetting from any plans to reach net zero Use nature-based solutions such as habitat creation and rewilding to help restore ecosystems and biodiversity rather than absorbing our carbon emissions Redeploy funds that have been put aside for offsetting for activities that result in emissions reductions, and so leave more fossil fuels in the ground Work with suppliers and local communities to help them decarbonise more quickly (so-called “insetting”) Apply a laser-like focus on the acceleration of decarbonisation.

There is a quote from her over the image: “It’s scandalous that the Labour-led council is throwing away a £6.5m grant which offered an opportunity to replace the old gas boilers with green energy solutions and insulation. This project would cut carbon emissions and reduce the running costs from two of the council’s biggest and most energy intensive assets.”

What is needed now from our local politicians is a genuine commitment to bus travel and strong political leadership.”
