Today, campaigners and celebrity activists are launching #RethinkHS2, a typically misguided "green" attack on HS2.

I've been promising a new #whyHS2 thread explaining why opposition to HS2 means exacerbating the #ClimateEmergency, and this seems like the perfect excuse 🙄
As ever, I'll start by pointing you to this thread explaining the purpose of HS2 from a railway perspective:
Transport is now the UK's biggest source of GHG emissions, and it is still getting worse.

There are lots of underlying reasons for this, but fundamentally it is because too many people/things use road transport.
