08 May 2024 Thousands of jobs at Port Talbot are at risk. They don’t have to be. The Welsh steel industry can & should be at the centre of the transition to net-zero. This Govt’s lack of ambition for our steel industry is letting down thousands of skilled workers. My question earlier???? https://twitter.com/MattWestern_/status/1788218970681614628/video/1 [Source]
16 Apr 2024 The National Grid infrastructure is critical to delivering a sustainable future thru renewable energy such as wind & solar. An upgrade is urgent, as set out in the Winser Review last Aug. I asked the Minister earlier for an update on the Transmission Acceleration Action Plan???? https://twitter.com/MattWestern_/status/1780316481097441422/video/1 [Source]
31 Jul 2023 Some impressive figures from @SMMT here, particularly in relation to electric vehicles. Great work by our automotive industry. Govt should support auto industry in inevitable and urgent transition to net zero. https://twitter.com/SMMT/status/1684469559493787648 [Source]
21 Apr 2023 Some really shocking analysis here. If the HGV sector delivered on zero emissions, it would cut over 20 million tonnes of CO2 annually. The Govt needs a proper strategy to make this happen. https://twitter.com/SMMT/status/1648966064238149632 [Source]
05 Jan 2023 Utterly sobering start to the New Year. So serious #ClimateChange #Biodiversity https://t.co/npL4crhy25 [Source]
01 Dec 2022 A cost-of-living crisis. A climate emergency. The electrification of passenger mobility. Yet the Govt is stalling. I asked the Minister: if onshore is the cheapest, cleanest source of energy generation, how is it Warwickshire has no onshore wind turbines? https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1598225386734772224/video/1 [Source]
12 Nov 2022 Proud to stand alongside villagers campaigning against ⁦@Barford_quarry⁩. During COP27, I really hope ⁦@StJohnsOx⁩ will listen and re-visit their quarry deal. Environmental responsibility has never been so urgent. Pls share ⁦@OxUniLabour⁩ ⁦@OxfordUnion⁩ https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1591459514985115648/photo/1 [Source]
21 Oct 2022 Great visit to @oxford_brookes yesterday. Toured the sustainable energy centre & discussed sector challenges with the senior leadership team. Labour is on the side of universities - recognising their crucial role in providing the next steps in the lives of so many young people. https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1583489872500662277/photo/1 [Source]

28 Jun 2022 If we are to meet the challenge of achieving #NetZero, then “there need to be targets for the delivery of [EV and H2] infrastructure”, says Konstanze Scharring ⁦@SMMT⁩ #SMMTSummit https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1541740553263538176/photo/1 [Source]
24 May 2022 It’s critical for tackling the climate emergency that we have a proper plan to reduce van emissions – with 17% of the UK’s transport emissions produced by vans. The Govt needs to support better electric charging infrastructure and make electric vans cheaper to buy. @SMMT https://twitter.com/SMMT/status/1528991184072241152 [Source]
05 Jan 2022 Instead of one million net-zero homes promised by the last Labour govt, we got a Developers' Charter from the Coalition. Since, developers have pumped money into the Conservative Party and communities have lost out with new home owners paying the price. Enough is enough. https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1478779567544410117/video/1 [Source]

20 Oct 2021 Ahead of COP 26, I attended a regional air quality conference. Studies show up to 40k early deaths in the UK every year are down to air pollution. In Warwick district, 28,000 children grow up around unsafe levels of air pollution. We must get serious. #COP26 #ClimateCrisis https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1450779836260229120/photo/1 [Source]

14 Jul 2021 Listening to Grant Shapps on #r4today you’d think the Government was on the pace re decarbonisation of transport. As the Committee in Climate Change makes clear, we are not. And it’s the failure of Govt to support EV infrastructure that’s holding us back [Source]
16 Jun 2021 Cutting the overseas aid budget - during a global pandemic and a climate emergency - will be seen as one of the most callous choices made by a UK Chancellor in our lifetime. A Thread ???? https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1405089642983170050/video/1 [Source]
09 Jun 2021 Credibility is important for a COP26 host. By scrapping Labour's pledge to build 1m net-zero homes, this Govt has proved it is not serious about the climate emergency. Then there's cutting the Green Homes Grant, the Cumbria coal mine and slashing overseas aid. Awful. #COP26 https://x.com/MattWestern_/status/1402671932563202057/video/1 [Source]
