If you're on the tube this week look out #ForCharlie. And wherever you are, head to welfarewashing.org. Get informed about the treatment of farm animals on RSPCA Assured farms (very far from the charity's #welfarewashing "kindness" ads) and call on RSPCA to drop the scheme

We signed this letter to call for lobbyists to be locked out of COP29. Every year, lobbyists from polluting industries swarm the conference to ensure a favourable result for the fossil fuel industry. It can't go on that way. We need change.
