Please use this urgent action to write to your MP about a key amendment - they should vote for - to the Planning & Infrastructure Bill to ensure vital nature and ecosystem protections are in it.
Do share this. Thanks

Food banks provide help when people need it most. But real change means ending the need for them altogether.

Repost if you agree 💚

Have you thought about depaving your garden?🌿

Replacing impermeable materials with permeable ones like gravel or soil helps reduce flood risks and combats heatwaves🪴

Find out more on the Hackney Council website and pledge to depave ➡️ https://t.co/xqyQ3xMVpZ @SarahWoodberryD

[WRAP @WRAP_NGO]

£13.6 million in grants has been offered to 12 food charities across England to redistribute an estimated 19,000 tonnes of food directly from farms to help families and fight food poverty in communities, reports Farmers Guide.

@DefraGovUK today announced that thousands of tonnes of nutritious food that would otherwise go to waste will help families facing food insecurity, thanks to new grants offered to a number of charities, including @CityHarvest_LDN, @Foodincommun and @FareShareUK.

With around 30% of all greenhouse gas emissions come from the food and drink industry, and roughly 30% of food produced not being consumed, by reducing #FoodWaste and using our precious resources more intelligently we can achieve higher standards of living, tackle climate change, protect nature, and reduce inequality.

Through #CircularLiving can we feed more people with less land.

[Action on Salt and Sugar @ActionSaltSugar]

Misleading packaging & excessive levels of sugar risks our infants’ health. Parents deserve to make informed decisions for their child’s health with the correct, current advice.

We hope to see more action in the near future to improve these products ✅👇
