@ironelwell @CClimateAction @BBCRadio3 @ChichesterDio minor disruption to a service is entirely justified in light of the diocese’s immoral decision to continue investing in fuels that are destroying the future for everyone

Say No to hate and lies. I refuse to use Twitter when its new owner encourages people to vote for the Republican Party. Find me on Linked In or Facebook instead.

So a committee of UK MPs believe that the official body regulating gambling risks, “the destruction of one of the world’s best gambling industry’s [sic]” Honestly you couldn't make it up. https://t.co/CmVT5yQdVt

The Labour Party have been absolutely silent on this. There's no opposition from them.

The Green Party have been very vocal on this but we are still growing - and need to do so faster.

How does a lengthy conversation about quiz shows have anything to do with today's news, @BBCWorldatOne and @Sarah_Montague? And what real news have you deprived us of in the meantime?

[Christopher Etchells @ChristoELT]

Latest Covid-19 update at https://t.co/KDJn6EuW2Z is a little mischievous about virus names....

It's best to bake when more than a third of Britain’s electricity is coming from wind, solar and hydro power – right now, 12:30 - 13:00, it’s 35%. https://t.co/I5inpnvRFT #shouldIbake #bakingforecast

@ELTFootprintUK Interesting to consider the difference between a policy and a pledge?

[Green Action ELT @GreenActionELT]

Delayed but done! Two digital drawings inspired by @E_Bryson's #ClimateCrisis themed #DrawingELT challenge. It was fun and hard - I hope you like them! ☺️
