A reminder of what's at stake as the power-sharing agreement between @theSNP and @scottishgreens collapses🔽
Whoever runs the @scotgov, investing in tackling the climate crisis isn’t a choice, it’s a necessity. The people of Scotland want climate leadership and for all parties to work together to deliver action. Fair climate action will unlock major benefits.

Parent poverty is inextricably linked to child poverty. As @SWBG say here, high childcare costs trap and push people across Scotland into poverty, with women's finances, mental health and careers taking a particular battering 🔽 bit.ly/3W9OO7N Time for @scotgov to act

Worth following this series if you aren't already 🔽 British arms sold to Israel are potentially being used to commit serious violations of international law. The UK must immediately halt arms licences and exports to the Government of Israel. #StopArmingIsrael #CeasefireNOW

Incredibly important and timely new research by @ClimateOutreach published today. Shows majority of people in Scotland want to move ahead with net zero efforts and believe this will be mostly good, or very good for Scotland. More results and info in thread below👇

Well said 👏 There's been a recklessly inadequate level of action so far and that's got to change. We need @ScotParl to unite to fairly & quickly raise💰 needed to deliver transformative climate action We can't risk a dangerous race to the bottom on global climate ambition.

📺 In case you missed it, we responded on @Channel4News to @scotgov decision to axe the target to cut emissions by 75% by 2030 👇 It's the result of inadequate climate action. We must focus now on changing that, including fairly raising extra finance to invest at scale & speed

📺As @JamiePolitics tells @BBCScotlandNews, @scotgov's re-writing of its own climate rulebook is an acute global embarrassment and a mess of Ministers' own making. Our full reaction to the news a key Scottish emission reduction target is being axed bit.ly/3W3FaUc
“The announcement of largely recycled measures represents baby steps forward rather than the giant leaps needed..." We respond in @guardian to the package of measures announced by @scotgov as it revealed plans to axe Scotland's target to cut emissions by 75% by 2030.
The Scottish Government’s abandonment of its legal 2030 and annual emissions reduction targets is a reprehensible retreat caused by its recklessly inadequate level of action to date. Our reaction to @MairiMcAllan's statement 🔽 bit.ly/3W3FaUc
Important thread from @ChiefExecCCC 👇 They left me thinking how, if Scotland had strained every sinew and still missed the clearly ambitious 2030 climate target, we could at least say we'd done our best. But we haven't, so we can't.

We're here because of damaging dilly dallying and it can't continue. Ministers/ALL MSPs must now focus on securing the significant £ required to invest in faster climate action through fair tax reforms which protect the worst off & incentivise polluters to clean up their acts.

This a time for brutal honesty. If the @scotgov axes the 2030 climate target, it would be the inevitable consequence of their too slow and too shallow climate action to date. Ambitious promises were always going to prove hollow without major new investment in delivery.

Lots of news this morning that @scotgov is set to ditch a key emissions reduction target thanks to a lack of investment and lack of action. That's got to change. We can't risk a race to the bottom on global climate action 🔽 bit.ly/448leRV

Good to hear @RozFoyer on @BBCNewsScotland's #GMS & @bbcpodlitical about the need for both @GOVUK / @scotgov to implement a series of common sense tax reforms to narrow inequality and raise more £. 👀 on how @AnasSarwar & @HumzaYousaf respond at @ScottishTUC conference this week
The People's Panel's findings are yet another wake up call for @scotgov on climate change and a crucial reminder of the importance of global citizenship education. Kudos to our friends @IDEAScotland @LfSScotland & Scotland's DECs who are already doing great work in this area 👏

In the last six months, indiscriminate bombing has killed over 30,000 people and there is no food, fuel, or medical supplies in Gaza. The UK must stop arming Israel immediately and take action for a #CeasefireNOW Sign the letter: bit.ly/3VwRCeU

Incredibly important and timely new research by @ClimateOutreach published today. Shows majority of people in Scotland want to move ahead with net zero efforts and believe this will be mostly good, or very good for Scotland. More results and info in thread below👇

Rehashing old policies isn't enough. Politicians across the spectrum made a promise to the people of Scotland by backing strong 2030 targets. They must be willing to work together for the transformative ideas that improve lives & cut climate pollution. foe.scot/press-release/…
A new #valued report by @oxfamgb sets out how to break the link between care and poverty. It is disheartening to see that #unpaidcare is undervalued, despite contributing £13.1 billion to the Scottish economy. #inequality
Today, we launched our #Valued report with partners. Care is essential. It sustains our social and economic foundations. We need political will and leadership to value all care and finally break the link between care, poverty and inequalities. A thread🧵 policy-practice.oxfam.org/resources/valu…
Important thread from @ChiefExecCCC 👇 They left me thinking how, if Scotland had strained every sinew and still missed the clearly ambitious 2030 climate target, we could at least say we'd done our best. But we haven't, so we can't.
Lots of people asking about Scotland's climate targets today (understandably). We won't comment before we see what the Scottish Government is planning, but our position on the 🏴2030 target is already very clear. It was in two key bits of advice, published already. 🧵
Over a decade has been wasted when Ministers could have been delivering warm homes, reliable public transport and clear pathways to green jobs. Instead the @scotgov have kept millions of people trapped in a broken status quo.
BREAKING The Scottish government is to ditch its flagship target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030 bbc.in/4aBnfbW
Scotland to abandon pledge to cut carbon emissions by 75% by 2030; an ‘acute global embarrassment’, says @OxfamScotland - @severincarrell reports 👇#climatecrisis theguardian.com/environment/20…
This a time for brutal honesty. If the @scotgov axes the 2030 climate target, it would be the inevitable consequence of their too slow and too shallow climate action to date. Ambitious promises were always going to prove hollow without major new investment in delivery.
Lots of news this morning that @scotgov is set to ditch a key emissions reduction target thanks to a lack of investment and lack of action. That's got to change. We can't risk a race to the bottom on global climate action 🔽 bit.ly/448leRV

Women & girls in Lchingei village in Samburu County always trekked long distances to access water, with imminent danger of attack or sexual violation along the way. Thank you @ScotGovID, @SNDAfrica & @OxfamScotland for changing it for the better. Safe water is now within reach.

Concerning findings from our colleagues @OxfamScotland 👇 We also know that income and wealth are unequally distributed between men and women, which makes this a gendered issue. Both the UK and the Scottish Governments need to use taxation to tackle poverty and #genderinequality
NEW: our analysis of official data shows income inequality is soaring in Scotland. One of the things @GOVUK & @scotgov can do is use their powers to implement a series of fair, common sense taxes to narrow the gap between the richest and the rest. More➡️bit.ly/49ktAqt
