This is getting tedious. It's snowing AGAIN and it's now April... Like almost everyone else, we're getting fed up with the freezing weather. But what lies behind it? Just the well-known unpredictability of UK weather or something more worrying? It seems counter-intuitive to attribute unseasonally cold weather to 'global warming'. In fact, both last year's record March warmth and this years snowfall seem to be linked to a warmer Arctic affecting the jetstream and causing erratic weather patterns.

Why? Because we are teetering on the brink of climate catastrophe.

Is Zero Carbon Britain by 2030 possible? Yes! The Centre for Alternative Technology's groundbreaking report sets out one path to zero carbon. While you might not agree with everything in it, it shows the scale of ambition that is achievable.
