Climate change brings wildfires, so it is ironic that those in Spain and Portugal are helping to cool down the UK this week. Slightly odd that the Met Office is excited about the amazing sunsets we will get while two counties burn news.sky.com/story/why-wildโ€ฆ

Developments donโ€™t need to destroy nature. It IS possible to build AND to protect wildlife โ€“ which the Government promised to do. We asked you why itโ€™s important that Government keeps its promises to nature and here's a few of your comments. Thank you for standing up for nature.

Our communities need climate leadership. Now more than ever, we need our local leaders to act for people and planet. I've just asked my mayor to take the Big Climate Plan pledge - will you do the same? action.friendsoftheearth.uk/target/tell-yoโ€ฆ

Perhaps National Highwaysโ€™ most blatant misuse of Designated Funds as a sweetener for roadbuilding is to gain local support for the ยฃ16bn Lower Thames Crossing. ๐Ÿงต

Can we build new roads without threatening biodiversity? Tomorrow at 2.30pm we're exploring environmental impacts of major road developments, including pollution from run-off and whether schemes such as biodiversity net gain are fit for purpose.

Iโ€™m speaking at this event today. Letโ€™s hope that the Committee will recommend effective regulation of pollution from highway runoff.

We know our rivers are polluted. But did you know that National Highways is responsible for 18,083 outfalls (pipes) that go straight into watercourses (channels through which water flows including rivers, streams, drains or culverts) & 7,700 soakaways that go into the ground? ๐Ÿงต

Tackling road runoff should be given higher priority and treated as core work by National Highways, funded out of their main RIS3 budget. transportactionnetwork.org.uk/national-highwโ€ฆ

More than 200,000 vehicles use the M25 every day โ€“ around 15% of all motorway traffic in the UK. Despite this, National Highways is neglecting to maintain it properly. transportactionnetwork.org.uk/national-highwโ€ฆ

Our rivers are polluted. And itโ€™s not just from sewage. Every time it rains a toxic brew of oil, particulate matter, and microplastics from tyre and brake wear is washed off the roads, causing widespread pollution. It does not have to be like this! actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-nโ€ฆ

Over 5,450 letters sent demanding Govt stop throwing ยฃ100s of millions at destructive road schemes & invest in rail electrification instead. โœ… Cleaner & less harmful โœ… Improves train services โœ… Shifts freight off roads โœ… More jobs than roadbuilding actionnetwork.org/letters/take-aโ€ฆ

The Community Planning Alliance has been vociferously opposing the Planning & Infrastructure Bill since it was a working paper - long before the big NGOโ€™s woke up. Hence our #TeamBat #TeamNewt campaign. We donโ€™t have high running costs but we do appreciate a bit of help. So if

Please peruse the website of the British Regional Transport Association (BRTA) and get inspired: brtarail.com British Regional Transport Association (BRTA) We are voluntary and I am involved. It campaigns for local rail links and better modal choices to road dependency cultures. Save the planet!
