When people feel safe they will cycle.
Really hoping we’ll have scenes like these on @KirkleesCouncil roads v soon.

Fantastic news everyone. Ancient Woodland saved. We campaigned against the loss of ancient woodland along Wakefield Road (A644) which was part of the proposed Cooper Bridge Road scheme.

Hoping this might prompt @KirkleesCouncil to support the UN #NuclearBan Treaty

Violence is a key driver of migration - nuclear war would have a catastrophic effect on the earth

Electric cars won't solve our pollution problems – Britain needs a total transport rethink

“Paris, under its mayor Anne Hidalgo, is seeking to reverse this trend, by creating a “15-minute city”

Hope ⁦@KirkleesCouncil⁩ follows Paris’ example

The government’s #PlanningReform removes communities’ rights to have a say on development, waters down environmental protections & lowers restrictions on housing quality. I asked my MP to tell the government to rethink its plans. Will you ask yours? https://t.co/hW7bLyovWt

Hi @WestYorkshireCA did our letter to the future mayors of West Yorkshire arrive ok? Could you put it on the mayor's desk ready for June 2021, and for seven generations after that? https://t.co/WNICzAG1oP #letterstopower @CultureDeclares @KDeclares

@rockmistress @ClimateKirklees We need to cut vehicle use, #HS2 and new road building - not trees.

At same time: invest in active travel (cycling and walking) and challenging the structures and actions that contribute to the #ClimateEmergency

@ClimateKirklees

[Huddersfield Quakers @HuddsQuakers]

In a #ClimateEmergency it’s good to hear about action being taken to preserve life and halt new road building.

80 percent of these trees will be chopped down to widen the road so you can get to Halifax 2 minutes faster. @ClimateKirklees @HuddsQuakers #ClimateEmergency

“This will help to create a cycling and walking network to support everyday journeys, increasing the uptake of cycling and walking delivering improved health and accessibility to employment and education opportunities for those without access to a car. ”
