...like the 1000s of self-organised volunteer groups that sprang up in Covid. Picking up prescriptions, delivering shopping, my village even made PPE kit for care workers.

Our eyes are set horizontally, so landscape video suits our eyes.
Our hands hold a vertical screen easier, so portrait screens suit our hands.

How will spending on heat pumps not work?
My friend has one and pays in a year what we pay a month. As we boost renewables and decouple prices from gas, won’t heat pumps help bills and lower emissions?
...treatment of waste, transport and distribution. 8 categories, that all experienced carbon accountants follow in their reporting.
The GHGP has recently published its first 'Land Sector and Removals Standard' coming into effect in Jan 2027. Land emissions are totally different from supply chains..
...THE international standard for how you account for your carbon. They have a range of standards for corporations, for supply chains, for products, even for cities and whole countries.
