✍️ The UK government's plan to expand Heathrow Airport could lead to increased carbon dioxide emissions and put the country further off track on its climate goals.

👉 The UK government plans to expand Heathrow Airport, which could lead to increased carbon dioxide emissions. 👉 The government claims that investing in research on new low-carbon fuels and electric planes could offset the emissions. 👉 Experts argue that any such technology is still decades away and would not be available in the near future. 👉 The Climate Change Committee has warned that airport expansion would breach the UK's carbon budgets. 👉 Campaigners believe that it is unlikely that an expanded Heathrow could operate within the current carbon budget.

👉 Storm Bert caused devastating flooding in the UK, taking lives and destroying homes and businesses. 👉 Climate breakdown is making extreme weather events more probable. 👉 The Environment Agency is facing a funding shortfall, which has led to a reduction in flood defence projects. 👉 Experts argue that the current approach to flood protection is not keeping pace with the escalating risks posed by climate change. 👉 Nature-based solutions, such as restoring peatlands and creating new woodlands, could be effective in reducing flood risk.
