@sccscot.bsky.socialThanks @scotrewilding.bsky.social for organising this demo, it was good to take part and call for a fund for #ClimateShocks.

But they also need to stop contributing to the problem. That means ruling out new oil and gas and maintaining EV targets, at the very least. @heidialexander.bsky.social
@sccscot.bsky.social'Parliament votes to pause hyperscale data centre applications until guidance is in place AND all are to be required to do Environmental Impact Assessments.'

@colin-hattersley.bsky.socialReposted by @sccscot.bsky.socialBetter Buses now: Passengers united at the Scottish parliament yesterday to demand a “better buses bill” from Scotland’s Transport Minister Stephen Flynn and MSPs. With @sccscot.bsky.social @povertyalliance.org @foescot.bsky.social
@sccscot.bsky.socialWe're calling on the Scottish Government to bring forward their promises for #betterbuses!
Yesterday, protesters took to the streets outside Holyrood to demand better buses across Scotland. Here's how it went 👇
@sccscot.bsky.socialA relief to see that ‘tackling the climate emergency’ is still one of @scottishgov.bsky.social's top four priorities, but detail is thin
