I *love* this quote from Pontevedra's mayor, Miguel Anxo Fernandez Lores:
"It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me, it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them."
"Current policies are taking the world to a 2.8 degree temperature rise...that spells catastrophe, yet the collective response remains pitiful." โ @antonioguterres

I have no problems with a law on death by dangerous cycling โ everyone must obey the rules of the road.
But in 2022, 1760+ people were killed on UK roads โ 3 involved someone being hit by a bike.
Whatโs the gov plan for stopping 5 people being killed a day by motor vehicles?

Are we letting down people in small towns & villages by overlooking the #airpollution risks that they experience?
Piece by me on the smoke from wood & coal burning in open fires & stoves.

Britainโs upland national parks are in a shockingly deprived state. Please take a few moments to watch this wonderful wonderful short animation describing what has gone wrong, and how we can go about making them so much better for communities and wildlife. https://t.co/VcSGheJFmd
