It's been a week of conferences for me - but now 'it's Friday again' phew! Thanks to James Riley and team for Science in Public and now BrEPS for a fantastic Environmental Psychology conference. Meanwhile Caroline Verfuerth sums up my life - applied research is messy!

Do you live or work in Bristol, Bath, NE Somerset, North Somerset, or South Glos? Think transport could be better? We're launching a People's Passenger Transport Executive to get community voices heard before WECA creates an official one! Bring your ideas! 🎉🍔🗣️

27% of carbon emissions come from transport, mostly private cars and freight. But we can't expect people to get out of cars without good alternatives - mobility for jobs, education, health, and a social life is critical. Imagine if this happened in Bristol? Reclaim Our Buses (West of England)

ippr.org/media-office/r… IPPR press release on the impact of bus cuts since 2013. Cost to economy: £2.6 billion; cost to climate 292million kg greenhouse gases. There’s also a good research report on their website.

I haven't posted here for a while... but this is so wonderful to see. And clearly connects to my latest research into transformative learning on sustainability in schools. Transport is such a visible reminder of #ClimateAction and why learning on the #SDGs matters. West of England SustainableTransport&ActiveTravel

But more than that... freedom for children in cities is also freedom for parents. That's why I love the new manifesto from Mobiel 21 for children - the right and space to travel safely on their own from age 8! mobiel21.be/nl/initiatieve…
