    60 green minutes with #EcoHour - Image 1

    It’s really important to keep talking about climate change, to let people know what causes it and what the consequences could be. That’s why we’re launching our monthly Twitter #EcoHour. We’ll be holding live chats where like-minded individuals, experts and organisations can share their knowledge in an informative and supportive discussion around a particular eco theme.

    Our first chat is on Tuesday 28 August at 8pm and will be hosted by the Marine Conservation Society, the UK’s leading marine charity. They’ll be discussing what we can do to ensure our seas are healthy, pollution free and protected.

    We love talking about all things green, and we especially love hearing about all the green thinking that’s going on. That’s why we’ve decided to create #EcoHour, a place where environmental topics can be shared, offering a source of information and practical advice to create much needed change. We hope to create a community where you can ask questions and get some answers, to make Britain greener.

    #EcoHour takes place on the last Tuesday of each month at 8pm. It’s really easy to join in the conversation, simply search #EcoHour and get involved. See you there!

    Climate Clock

    The Climate Clock is a version of the Doomsday clock that has been running since 1947 - this tracks the risk of global man-made disaster, through man made technology (like nuclear weapons) - displaying the minutes and seconds left before midnight, when disaster strikes. The climate crisis is a small part of the calculations made.
    The climate clock uses a similar approach, but, focuses only on the climate crisis - which is the biggest and most urgent existential threat we face.
    "The Climate Clock is a countdown to the biggest man-made disaster we face - but also a measure by which we can track our progress - moving from fossil to renewable energy. It shows we have no time to lose - the clock is ticking…" Dale Vince, OBE.
