Don’t you wish that this would be the main news occupying us as a nation today? We are in a #ClimateCrisis: ‘Ministers warned England set to miss wildlife and biodiversity targets.’ theguardian.com/environment/20…

And the last from this series btwn Shields and Brockley Whins is this remarkable relic from the earliest passenger railways. The stone abutments on each side are nearly 200 years old, which makes it one of the earliest surviving railway structures in the region. This old

Disturbing to hear Lisa Nandy – Labour’s shadow housing minister – fundamentally misunderstanding the purpose of the green belt on #bbclaurak this morning. It isn’t designated on the basis of its beauty or current state, but to prevent American-style suburban sprawl… 🧵 1/

The most profitable option for developers is typically to build large detached houses on green fields, i.e. the exact thing the green belt seeks to prevent. The Green Party believes in strengthening and expanding the green belt, and focusing developers on building affordable, 3/

sustainable, gentle density homes, like most of our European neighbours. This kind of high-quality housing started becoming common all over countries like France and Germany decades ago. If we’re serious about tackling climate change, this is what we should be talking about. 4/4

If you receive the news that dramatic spikes in ocean temperatures aren’t much of a concern, maybe even pleasant for swimming in, then it’s time to think again… #heatwave #ClimateBreakdown

What can purify 140 litres of water a day, remove carbon from the atmosphere and ocean, and fit in your palm? Could it be a new green-tech gadget? No, it's our old friend the oyster. 🦪 We're celebrating this rewilding superstar for #NationalMarineWeek: rewildingbritain.org.uk/reintroduction…

This Tory government's aim to "max out" on North Sea fossil fuels up until 2050 is the most duplicitous and cynical abuse of power, and a devastating lack of vision and leadership. Can't wait to see them gone. thenational.scot/news/23690757.…
