I'm really looking forward to running this workshop again tomorrow, last week's session was excellent and both Marchelle and Jo have huge wisdom to share. Do book a place while there are spaces if you are struggling to work out how to talk to kids about COP or climate.

Mother Bhavreen Kandhari from Warrior Moms in India says the #IPCC #ClimateReport must trigger an urgent phase out of fossil fuels that are damaging children's health now and stealing their futures.

According to CIVICUS the UK is now the most difficult G7 country for civil society to operate in. This being asked by Loose Women illustrates the role of the media in incriminating protest. Enabling protest is not a threat to democracy, it is central to protecting it.

This thread is an important read for anyone concerned about the #RightToProtest More than ever now in the U.K. we need to #ProtectTheProtest

The lack of media coverage of #thebigone shows how complicit the U.K. media are in enabling the government to restrict our rights to protest. Protests can be joyful, peaceful, colourful events, but the media chooses only to focus on disruptive actions.

Looking forward to sharing how much we’ve learnt about school communities as a way to engage parents on climate - and parents as a key part of school communities - alongside Claire from Parents For Future Scotland on Thursday!

Made it into the background of Chris Packham’s interview at the #restorenaturenow action outside Defra UK. Great to be there with others from @parents_4future.
