๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธ DAY 1

Here we go Bruce @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon: your first advent scene!

We know how much you ADORE cricket. You're @MCCOfficial Chair after all!

So hereโ€™s a miniature๐Ÿpavilion we made especially for you.

Now don't forget to check out the sign...๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿชง

#InsureOurFuture ImageImage
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธ #AdventCalendar: Day 2!โ„๏ธ

Weโ€™ve added beautiful #advent trees for you Bruce @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon.

But how much longer until theyโ€™re cut down? ๐Ÿ˜ข

Hey, is that a child up there? We love seeing kids climbing trees! ๐ŸŒณ

And great sign kido!๐ŸŒŽ

#InsureOurFuture #StopAdani ImageImage
๐ŸŽ„#AdventCalendar: Day 3!

Look @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon the cricket players have arrived!๐Ÿ˜€

Best get those matches in while you can:

Cricket is one of the sports most affected by flooding and extreme heat caused by the #ClimateCrisis. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Do it for the ๐Ÿif not for the kids! ImageImage
โ„๏ธ#AdventCalendar: Day 4!

You can't have a fair match without an Umpire to enforce the๐Ÿ Laws.

Shame you won't use your position Bruce @BNCB to make sure the @LloydsofLondon marketplace is fair by all kids and stops insuring ALL new #FossilFuels in line with the @IEA report... Image
๐ŸŽ„#AdventCalendar: Day 5!

Oh, hello, is that Santa๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿฝ?

No, it's just the cricketers taking Santaโ€™sย sleigh for a spin! Ha ha!๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜‚

Time for some festive cheer!

But hang on...Isย  that a load of coal we see?

Please ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ@LloydsofLondon donโ€™t poison our kidsโ€™ lungs with it.๐Ÿ˜ข ImageImageImage
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธDay 6!

Spectators are arriving to watch the cricket.

Looks like they're using the coal delivery to get a better view of the game.๐Ÿ˜ฒ

Did you see sign๐Ÿชง @BNCB?

If @LloydsofLondon is going to stop insuring coal as you say, it needs to be made mandatory across the market. Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธ#AdventCalendar: Day 7!

The cricket ๐Ÿis well under way now.

But a small group of determined looking mothers have something else on their minds.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

We trust you know by now @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon that these mamas love fiercely and won't give up!

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ

#InsureOurFuture Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 8!

Time for more Christmas ๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿพ decor.

Oops! Wrong kind of chimney.

Those belong to open pit #coal mines that poison our children's lungs.

You know @BNCB: like the kind @LloydsofLondon still reinsures in #Poland.

The pretty bows make them look festive at least... Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธDay 9!

Oh look #Canada's Trans Mountain pipeline has made its way onto the scene.

You do know @BNCB it cuts through indigenous lands & nature and tar sands are the most polluting source of oil?

@LloydsofLondon must mandate its market to stop insuring this project #StopTMX! Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 10!

It takes courage to face up to how we're wrecking our only home ๐ŸŒŽ

The reality is harsh but you can't hide from it @BNCB.

The Trans Mountain pipeline that @lloydoflondon still insures has a history of spills and leaks.

It destroys Indigenous lands.

#StopTMX! Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 11!

Shame our๐Ÿ boys were beaten in the first #Ashes2021 test @BNCB!

But the REAL shame is that @LloydsofLondon still insures #Australiaโ€™s Adani coal mine that is trashing indigenous land and killing the #GreatBarrierReef.

Itโ€™s just not cricket!

#StopAdani Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 12!

Oh dear! The boys didn't last long. Sadly they're all collapsing because of the extreme heat.๐Ÿฅต

Toughen up lads! The cricket must go on!

Or perhaps @BNCB it's time to END business as usual and for @LloydsofLondon to STOP insuring deadly #FossilFuels? #StopAdani Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 13!

Phew, medics arrive to attend to the players!

Remember @BNCB how ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ๐Ÿcaptain @root66 collapsed in Australia's intense heat?

As Chair of @MCCOfficial you must know that cricket is threatened by #climatechange.

Do it for your beloved ๐Ÿ: STOP insuring #FossilFuels! Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 14!

Whoa, a forest fire! Seems they're all the rage these days. Pity the cricket pavilion is made of wood.

From Algeria to Australia, the U.S. to Siberia, ever more intense wildfires are taking lives and wreaking havoc.

@BNCB of @LloydsofLondon: ๐Ÿ™๐ŸฝEND #FossilFuels! Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 15!

The little folk saw ๐Ÿ‘€ the @InsOurFuture vans outside your offices @BNCB and wondered what was going on.

Never mind the raging wildfires and toxic air! It's time for a fresh coat of green paint.

Or just maybe it's time to stop the greenwashing @LloydsofLondon?๐Ÿค” Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ #AdventCalendar2021 Day 16!

Looks like the spectators are getting fired up. Not about the cricket though!

More people are joining the mums and calling on @BNCB to stop insuring #FossilFuels.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ

Change is coming. Will @LloydsofLondon be part of the solution?

#StopAdani Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 17!

Hey, Mr. Mini Cricket Player! Itโ€™s not time to open your #advent window!

Hmm, seems this poor guy can't cope with the heat and needs to make an early escape.

But thereโ€™s no escaping the #ClimateCrisis is there @BNCB, Chair of @LloydsofLondon AND @MCCOfficial? Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 18!

Wildfires, droughts, flooding, toxic air.

Is this really what weโ€™re gifting our children @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon?

This is ALREADY the reality for so many families around the world.๐Ÿ’”

Families who have done the least to cause carbon emissions.

So unjust๐Ÿ˜ข Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 19!

Our call Bruce Carnegie-Brown @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon is straight from a mother's aching heart.

We want your four children, our kids and ALL kids to be safe. Itโ€™s that simple.

And we need you to do whatever it takes to help ensure that.

You can and MUST act! Image
#AdventCalendar2021 Day 20! ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ

Yay! It looks like Santa heard the mums' heartfelt plea to @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon and has come to save the day and the #Ashes!

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฟ

Er...hang on Santa...you might not want to come down THAT chimney. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 21!

Who are we kidding? Santa can't get us out of this crisis but we know a man who can:

C'mon @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon & @MCCOfficial!

Dig deep. Find the courage. Do it for the cricket!

Do it for our kids.๐Ÿ’”

Stop insuring deadly #FossilFuels #StopTheMoneyPipeline
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“… Day 22!

We've worked on our fielding positions @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon like you advised us to do. What do you think - better?

And you?

Are you working on Lloyd's ESG position to make it MANDATORY to stop insuring coal, tar sands, Arctic energy and new #FossilFuels? Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 23!

Just stop for a moment, Bruce, @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon, and imagine that feeling...

Of genuinely gifting all children and our precious only home๐ŸŒa fighting chance?

You have the power to #StopTheMoneyPipeline and #InsureOurFuture.

Please. Use it.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ Image
๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Day 24!

If only our wish could come true and we could keep 1.5ยฐC alive and ALL kids safe right now and in the future.

We hope our #AdventCalendar2021 has hit home @BNCB of @LloydsofLondon.

Go on!

Make it the best Christmas ever: #InsureOurFuture and #FightFor1Point5 Image

BREAKING: Parents gather to tell @RishiSunak they wonโ€™t watch him fiddle while Rhodes burns.

@RishiSunak is out of touch with parents & the climate science. His doubling down on fossil fuels in a climate crisis is a BETRAYAL of children worldwide.

#ClimateEmergency Image
July was the hottest month ever globally with half of all children in Europe & Central Asia exposed to dangerous heatwaves.

Issuing new North Sea licences is reckless & playing politics with the future of our children & our planet.

Write to your MP ๐Ÿ‘‡

New North Sea oil and gas doesn't mean energy security or cheaper bills for families - most North Sea oil and gas will be exported.

Families want clean affordable renewables which are nine times cheaper than fossil fuels - not @RishiSunakโ€™s expensive and polluting oil and gas.
