The Met Office is currently looking for people to suggest up to 5 names for storms...

It would be great if thousands all suggested the same 5 names (in alphabetical order as that's how storm names appear):

BigOil, BP, Equinor, Exxon, Shell.

Met Office page is: https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/forms/name-our-storms-call-for-names

Whilst the Met Office is unlikely to adopt any of the above 5 names, if they are suggested in huge numbers it may attract media coverage, as was the case with Boaty McBoatface but with more serious intent. This would be enough to make the point to the government and the wider British public, might even get some overseas attention.

After a week of learning and living together, taking action against fascism, and preparing our movement for the struggle against the new fossil fascists, Climate Camp Scotland 2025 comes to an end.

Climate Camp Scotland will return to take the fight to fossil fuels and their fascist allies. Stay tuned and join the fight.

“Anything we do that is not optimizing getting people out of cars and getting them to a bus stop, or allowing them to walk from their neighborhood to a school with their kids, or do a #bikeBus, or ride, walk & roll around [#Portland] — If we are not prioritizing that —then every other little piddly, marginal thing we do for the climate is much less important, because most of our emissions come from automobiles… and I think it’ll save us money in the long run.” 🎯 💯 #ClimateAction #transportation

An Electric Arc Furnace (#EAF) in #Algoma, #Canada, begins producing steel without #CO2 emissions from #FossilFuels.

“Algoma's $880-million transition to electric arc furnace steelmaking has been the most costly building project in the city since building permits were issued.

“It will replace the blast furnace technology and coke ovens used to produce Sault steel for the past 124 years.

“The company expects its new Volta steel will reduce its #CarbonFootprint by up to 70 percent and help fuel growth of a low-carbon #economy.”

"Todd Energy's permit may simply end up as an accounting fiction, used to boost the nominal value of the company while the gas stays in the ground."

@norightturnnz, 2025

Is there anything we can do to encourage this? Or even better, make keeping fossil fuels in the ground more financially valuable than extracting them? Other than the obvious, ie replacing then ASAP with renewables.
