We’re rolling out Regional Land Use Partnerships to help deliver wider use of carbon positive land management practices.

The Mossmorran gas plant is responsible for nearly 10% of Scotland’s industrial emissions.

We’ll be co-developing a Just Transition plan for the site with workers and communities, ensuring they're protected as we move towards a greener economy.

We’re consulting on a carbon land tax, which will incentivise large landowners to invest in areas like peatland restoration and tree planting. 🌲

We've made world leading progress on reducing electricity emissions over the last 15 years.

But that alone isn’t enough. Transport, industry, buildings and agriculture all now contribute more to our emissions, and it's those sectors that today's announcement focuses on.

These measures will help us achieve net zero by 2045, becoming one of the first countries in the world to end our contribution to climate change. #ClimateActionNow 🌍

🌍Climate action means a habitable planet, but it also means more green jobs, lower bills, warmer homes, and better public transport.

The science is clear and the economics are clear: we can't afford any more delay. #SGPConf

14 years of Tory austerity and mismanagement has done incalculable damage to Scotland.

We need the power to make our own decisions. We need independence.

Scotland has the most progressive tax system in the UK. And thanks to changes secured by the Scottish Greens, the top 5% of earners now contribute more towards maintaining and enhancing our essential public services. #SGPconf

In the last ten years, the UK has licensed at least £500mn worth of arms sales to Israel. Weapons which have been used to inflict untold misery on an entire population.

How many more people will have to die before they can bring themselves to say that enough is enough? #SGPConf

National Parks drive investment into restoring nature, but also into creating facilities, housing and employment for the communities who live and work there.

They’re an amazing example of how Green policies benefit both people and planet. #SGPConf

Scottish Government owned Prestwick Airport will no longer do business with the Israeli Air Force following pressure from the Scottish Greens and campaigners.

The UK must not be complicit in the crime of genocide currently being inflicted on the people of Gaza by Israel.
