@CovHums @ThatHistorian @BBCCWR Is there a link to the programme?

[Dr. Darren R. Reid @ThatHistorian]

Really grateful to the Cov Telegraph for talking to us about Frederick Douglass and #Coventry. We've got some amazing students involved who are going to show how deep this city's #BlackLivesMatter roots really are!

*2 weeks to stop the criminalisation of trespass*

Ramblers, wild campers, Travellers & protestors aren't criminals - but soon, they could be.

Sign our petition to stop the govt criminalising trespass- 58,000 have signed; we need 100k for MPs to debate it https://t.co/GznNYXDwmf

James Lovelock, who first formulated the Gaia hypothesis, turned 101 this year. When he was born, 95% of the carbon humanity has ever emitted had not yet been produced. 75% of the damage of climate change has been done since he formulated the hypothesis. 50% since he turned 75.

@TheKieranMc1 @CoventryFAH @ThatHistorian @GrimaDr Thanks, Kieran!

Spain just catapulted itself into the climate leader's front row! It just passed the first national law to stop all expansion of production of oil, gas and coal and legislate a wind down of production and demand. https://t.co/xjcesXZsYM

This is all very exciting.

*Big news*. In the wake of the Heathrow decision, with @DaleVince and @GoodLawProject, I'm mounting a legal challenge to the government's policy on power stations, pipelines and other fossil energy projects. I'm pretty sure we'll succeed. https://t.co/KeoM8Q0id8

Great to have @MrSimblaa of @Greenpeace at @CoventryFAH to speak to final year students of the environmental movement! An engaging and thought provoking morning!

@cogscoventry I found a place in Stourbridge - a dude with a warehouse who stores campers and motorhomes. It's not heated or shiny but keeps it dry and safe. It's £50 a month which I was pretty pleased with.
