Replying to @ManchesterMill @CarbonCoop
There wasn't space for the other fascinating retrofitting work going on in this city in the article - maybe one for a sequel? But worth looking into @_YourHomeBetter (who have done just under £1M in retrofits over last 3 years) and who offer zero carbon homes and @RedCooperative
one for you @mauriceshapero archdaily.com/1018492/house-…
It’s got solar panels on the roof & a battery from @AlphaESS, soon to be joined by a #heatpump from @Daikinuk - #feelthebenefitgm
“the climate crisis increases incrementally, meaning every tonne of CO₂ avoided reduces people’s suffering” theguardian.com/environment/…

It’s still time to look for more alternatives to concrete blast furnace slag is not the answer theconstructionindex.co.uk/n…
Testing budget temperature/humidity metres for @_YourHomeBetter to give to people in damper homes. The calibrated unit at the end if the row says 21.7° & 46.4%RH. There’s quite a variation in RH and theyre all too low. Problem is these are arranged in order of cost
Excellent contribution from Jurgen Maier

Tom Bradbury, "Picture a country going backwards, where workers haven't had a decent pay rise in 15 years, public services are on the verge of collapse, and the gap between rich and poor grows year on year"
"That is how Britain was described today in a bleak and damming assessment of its economy. The failure to achieve all but negligible growth has left the average worker, a simply staggering, £10,000 a year worse off"
"And we're now lagging way behind countries we used to think of as equals. In Germany, middle income households are 20% richer than their peers in the UK"
"We'd be here all night if we listed the failings identified in the 290 page report. But put simply, in almost every sector, the UK is just not productive enough"
