Was fascinating to hear Lewis Hamilton talking about the need to transform #F1 to be more #sustainable . Reminded me of that other sporting great Ellen MacArthur who has also done amazing things to drive #Sustainability . Have you guys talked?

Very pleased to have had the chance to chair the Environment Agency #EAcarbonexpo today. Great #netzero questions from the very practical to the tackling #climateinjustice . Collaboration with our supply chain delivery partners is key.

As part of our #NetZero goal it is critical we work with our partners to help deliver change. A lovely example here of an Environment AgencySW scheme with Land + Water delivering 75% carbon reduction. csengineermag.com/land-water-in-…

The 6th carbon budget. 78% cut by 2035 signals real intent. Now we need to develop the joined up policy to help us deliver it. edie.net/news/9/-A-game…

Taking a "break" from #NetZero today I start my week as Strategic Duty Manager for Environment AgencySW. #TeamEA are out getting ready for #StormChristoph checking structures, clearing trash screens and our office teams are all set up virtually ready to respond.

Why investing in nature is key to climate mitigation. Two crises inextricably linked & the solution within our grasp. Investing in nature can deliver so many benefits - climate mitigation,reduced flood risk, health benefits. mck.co/3qOuMfX via McKinsey & Company

I love the power of sport to convey a message. On #InternationalWomensDay this clip from Nike embodies the #ChooseToChallenge mentality brilliantly. #IWD2021 youtube.com/watch?v=zWfX5j…

My GCSE Geography teacher, Mr Panel wouldn’t be able to comprehend this. When he taught me, levels were 354 ppm and now 417ppm. 50% higher than pre industrial levels. We are minutes to midnight..... #NetZero needed more than ever.

The kettle has broken - disaster! Irreparable by design means new kettle, more #resource use, more #carbon. New law will help! bbc.com/news/business-…

As part of our Environment Agency #NetZero by 2030 goal we have been working with the The Carbon Literacy Project project to design a bespoke training package for all our staff to help them understand how they can contribute. Really pleased to launch this today.
