In 2014 a 7 year old boy Zane Gbangbola went to sleep and never woke up following the flooding of contaminated land.

And his father has been in a wheelchair ever since.

Toxic land is a huge issue. As are councils that solely favour profit over the health of residents.

When talking about climate change The Green Party believes we must remember impact on food supply.

Last year's empty shelves were due to droughts & storms in Spain /Morocco & this Winter's rain has had a catastrophic impact on UK farmers πŸ‘‡

And good to see Lewes District Green Party passing a motion unanimously at Lewes council to back a new law for greater transparency over contaminated land.

May we see more councils backing Zane's Law as we keep up the momentum to see a change in the law in the House of Commons.

These aren't the records we want to be breaking. March was the hottest month on record. The 10th month in a row this record has been smashed. 'Uncharted territory'.

The Green Party wants urgent climate action. We must act now- before it's too late

Great thread setting out how politicians from all the main parties are out of step with both science and the public when it comes to urgent climate action to keep our planet liveable.

Better regulation is urgently needed, but on its own won't fix water crisis.

Only The Green Party is committed to public ownership for our public utilities including water.

Privatisation of rail, water and the post office has not worked. Time for reform not tinkering πŸ‘‡

If anyone tells you the transition to clean energy is too expensive, they’re lying to you. New Oxford uni peer reviewed study finds it will save *at least* $12 trillion, and the faster the transition, the more it will save

Continued supply of weapons is the real message Israel hears. The rest is empty talk. And from the UK too. It’s long past time to stop arming Israel. For ⁦The Green Party⁩ theguardian.com/us-news/2024/m…
