You can make a difference to congestion around schools. Ask cllrs & schools to step up. Get your kids involved. l.ead.me/bb44UX #B14 #livingstreets #fightingforair #walktoschool #kingsheath #JuniorPCSO

There is no tangible difference between "climate change is a hoax" and "climate change is real but doing anything about it on the scale the science demands is unrealistic". Both are climate denial. Both lead to inaction. Irreversible tipping points are just that: Irreversible.

Not a lot of response to this campaign in the week it's been going. Most responses seem to come from overseas, w v small number from B'ham. Maybe this approach isn't inspiring enough, or something.

Did you know that schoolchildren are more effective than police, councils, or residents at reducing school run congestion? 😂 Have a look at this, and then get on to your local headteachers about it. l.ead.me/bb44UX #livingstreets #walktoschool #JuniorPCSO

It's been a year since #fightingforair #kingsheath. What's changed? School run congestion bad as ever. Worse in some places. Now there's something headteachers can do, and so can you. l.ead.me/bb44UX #B14 #livingstreets #walktoschool #JuniorPCSO

Who else has adopted a Junior PCSO scheme for traffic matters? Here are two in Smethwick: abbeyfederation.co.uk/abbey-junior-p… and x.com/smethwickwmp/s…

What year are we in now? 2019? Here's an Express & Star story about junior ticket wardens in Willenhall from June 2013. expressandstar.com/news/2013/06/2… #fightingforair #livingstreets #walktoschool

Did I ask what year we are in? Because here's a photo from Perry Hall in 2012: flickr.com/photos/westmid… It seems that getting children to help manage traffic has been a thing for a long time, round here.

One more chestnut for now: Newark, Notts, 2010: legacy.newarkadvertiser.co.uk/articles/news/… "The junior PCSOs are now working alongside the village beat team to resolve local issues, such as school parking."

Can't attend, but wonder if anyone else might mention #JuniorPCSO schemes as a way to address congestion issues around schools.

The Council will adopt a Clean Air Strategy. Pledge 3: "We will identify schools which are exposed to air pollution problems and work with the school to identify intervention strategies to reduce the exposure of the children". This falls well short of committing to change it.

What is a School Street? A School Street is when the roads around the school are temporarily closed to vehicles on each school day, during set times at drop-off and pick-up. cdn.friendsoftheearth.uk/sites/default/… #B14 #kingsheath #fightingforair #livingstreets #walktoschool

500 Kings Heath locals were asked whether the removal of High St parking bays would affect them. Here's what they said, in graphic form. easyzoom.com/imageaccess/e0…

Edinburgh in Scotland joins the @open_streets movement and closes some of it streets to motorised vehicles during Sundays and makes bicycles free for a week. It could be like this in every city everyday. #RebelForLife: rebellion.earth bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…
