• 28 Aug 2024 York bus depot 'among first to achieve 'Net Zero' certification https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/24547583.first-bus-confirms-net-zero-status-james-street-depot/?ref=twtrec It is so good to see the impact that electrification has had, opening up new opportunities, a just transition and cleaner air.

• 22 May 2024 An election could not come soon enough. Labour is ready to fix our NHS, rebuild our communities with the housing we need and tackle the climate crisis, leading on the global stage. Out of this cost of living crisis Labour will give you the hope and security you need. #votelabour [Source]
• 29 Sep 2023 #Rosebank must be stopped. With massive tax breaks underpinning the oil and gas market, it is clear this Government has chosen fossil fuels, and the environmental damage that this causes, over investment in renewable energy. #StopRosebank https://twitter.com/RachaelMaskell/status/1707773439119925322/photo/1 [Source]
• 21 Sep 2023 Even if the Prime Minister doesn't get why the climate is in crisis, businesses and communities do. We need urgent action now to support rapid decarbonisation and strong global leadership. #ClimateEmergency #GeneralElectionNow [Source]
• 03 Aug 2023 Government must ditch #Rosebank. Does @grantshapps @RishiSunak not understand how fragile this planet is? Keep hydrocarbons in the ground where they belong. Read letter from @ClimateAPPG ???? https://twitter.com/ClimateAPPG/status/1687113864826228736 [Source]
• 21 Nov 2022 It was clear today that Government are not taking the climate crisis seriously. Refusing to even look at on-shore wind and lacking ambition to address hydrocarbons, and methane, as I asked the Minister, is shameful. We are now heading for 2.8'C. #COP27 [Source]
• 22 Sep 2022 Investment in renewable energy is the way forward - it is quicker, cleaner and cheaper. https://t.co/hcdcBvU0dY [Source]
• 26 Apr 2022 @rach_hopkins "I agree, that rail and our wider public transport network are essential to tackling the climate crisis and meeting our net zero commitment" - says Gov't must do more to encourage people to travel by train #FutureOfRail [Source]
• 26 Apr 2022 @NavPMishra discusses the decarbonisation agenda and the issues with congestion on the roads, noise and air pollution - highlights the need to invest in good quality public transport across the country #FutureOfRail [Source]
• 07 Apr 2022 We have an energy crisis. We have a climate crisis. And what do we get: ????Fracking ????Nothing to help improve energy efficiency and retrofitting ????No progress with onshore wind and solar The Tories have abandoned the planet and abandoned you. #ClimateDestruction [Source]
• 06 Jan 2022 Government need to get a grip on the surge in energy costs: ????Cut VAT ????Green Energy transition ????Cap costs for low income households ????Increase Winter Fuel Allowance No one should experience fuel poverty this winter. https://x.com/RachaelMaskell/status/1479034150485217280/photo/1 [Source]
• 15 Nov 2021 The Prime Minister was sent to #COP26 to keep 1.5'C alive, he left with it "in life support". We were failed; our planet was failed. Today I challenged @BorisJohnson being all talk and no action. A #GND needs both money and jobs ... where are they? #BioYorkshire - Yorkshire's GND [Source]
• 12 Nov 2021 There is some hope coming out of #COP26 but leaders need to meet again soon to ensure that commitments are delivered and more is achieved. https://twitter.com/BarryGardiner/status/1459088536074915847 [Source]
• 10 Nov 2021 #COP26 should have kept the hope of 1.5'C but after watching this, it's clear that hope lies on the streets of our towns and cities, not the COP-out in Glasgow. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1458389839049629697 [Source]
• 05 Nov 2021 This is really the speech of #COP26 that should move us all to act. @miaamormottley is providing us the hope to keep 1.5'C alive and the leadership to make it happen. https://twitter.com/benphillips76/status/1455797084762820609 [Source]
• 05 Nov 2021 So it is down to children is it #COP26? I believe young people can educate Government about the #ClimateCrisis. While progress has been made, still not enough. @BorisJohnson is shameful, jet setting from COP to go to dinner parties while the planet burns. He just doesn't get it. [Source]
• 04 Nov 2021 I've signed the declaration for a Global Green New Deal. We need a just transition of our economy which protects our planet #COP26 #GreenNewDeal https://www.globalgreennewdeal.org/the-declaration [Source]
• 02 Nov 2021 ????????To aid carbon storage we need an immediate halt to felling forest & rainforests. 2030 is too late #COP26 The UK Government is planting less than 1/4 its target (30,000 hectares)/year by 2024; only increasing England’s woodland from 10% to 12% by 2050. Too little, too late???????? [Source]
• 01 Nov 2021 #COP26 Transport emissions = 31% in the UK. We need drastic action .... the UK's carbon budget will be spent within 5 years. What are you going to do differently? Invest in public transport, cycling and walking not road building and cutting air duty? @10DowningStreet [Source]
• 14 Oct 2021 #COP26 must be the start of a process. It is well worth reading this excellent speech by @Ed_Miliband as it shows the ambition @UKLabour has for Glasgow, for our planet and for our future. https://twitter.com/Ed_Miliband/status/1448333335290388482 [Source]
• 12 Sep 2021 As the G7 and COP26 intersect without leadership, I spoke earlier this week in a debate about the future of "Global Britain" through the framework of human rights and the climate. My speech in full ???? https://www.rachaelmaskell.com/news_page/2021/09/09/global-britain/ [Source]
• 06 Aug 2021 Labour believes in a just transition, a green new deal, so that every person can have a job that restores our environment, restores people’s income & restores people’s hope. #GreenNewDeal #JustTransition 2/2 [Source]
• 30 Jul 2021 Government are failing us. We don't have time to wait around #JustTransition #JustDoIt with @GreenpeaceUK https://t.co/7Qy93neBMv [Source]
• 25 Jul 2021 https://t.co/cbktLyOwa3 Yet another reminder that the climate crisis impacts us all. [Source]
• 15 May 2021 Have had an inspirational day discussing the climate crisis and how we radically change our approach. Frustrating when the Green/LibDem Council and the Tory Government are way off the mark, not least when more city centre parking is nodded through. Broken policies = broken planet [Source]
• 22 Apr 2021 This Earth Day - Check out Young Climate Warriors and their climate change club in a box! #youngclimatewarriors is about helping children learn and understand more about climate change ????http://www.youngclimatewarriors.org https://x.com/RachaelMaskell/status/1385200922314280961/photo/1 [Source]
• 03 Apr 2021 In 2021, the UK will host 2 critical summits, the G7 & the UN Climate Change Conference. That’s why I’m joining the #CrackTheCrises coalition to ask the UK government to play a leading role to help tackle Covid, injustice and climate change.

• 04 Feb 2021 At the #ShowTheLove pre-launch on their report to look at the impact of climate change. The report will be published later tonight. It is vital that Government get a grip of the #ClimateEmergency [Source]
• 11 Jan 2021 Unbelievable - the Green Party didn't oppose a new multi-story car park in York. We urgently need to decarbonise and decongest York. #ClimateEmergency @UKLabour once again standing up for the environment and our future #CarFreeCity , good public transport and #ActiveTravel. [Source]
• 23 Feb 2020 RT @LynnSloman: If you're near York and want much better public transport to tackle climate change, Y&H Pensioners Convention is running mu… [Source]
• 02 Jan 2020 The climate crisis requires Government to facilitate a move from cars to public transport. Once again the Government are raising fares making it harder for people to travel by rail. https://twitter.com/labourpress/status/1212671034043912199 [Source]
• 01 Jan 2020 York to ban private car journeys from city centre https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/dec/31/york-to-ban-private-cars-from-city-centre-within-three-years?CMP=share_btn_tw I welcome all steps to decarbonise York and will work with @CityofYork to revise the Local Plan as I recently raised again during the Inquiry, including stopping the new car parks they plan to build.
