Lucky enough to get out locally into the field with @Itslauraas for the day, we had some very nosey supervision! 🦙🦙🦙🦙

Today @Itslauraas passed her Mphil viva supervised by @wisellers in @UoM_EES with flying colours. Congrats Laura, and thanks to external @peterfalkingham for doing the honours. If you have any questions about flippers of marine reptiles, send them her way!

🚨🌍👥📺Meet the UK's #NetZero heroes: A new film about #ClimateAssemblyUK is out now on @BBCiPlayer: https://t.co/XsLrGLFzwC
#ThePeopleVsClimateChange is a terrific tribute to the 108 members of the UK public who took part @FilmsCurious @PictureZero @harrietbird

@BarryJWoods There were many different opinions at the assembly. I had some that could have influenced others, however you don't get the chance to speak to everyone.
I'm sure this person expressed their opinion to their group in the session as happened in all groups at the assembly.

I was lucky enough to be a part of the Citizens Assembly for Climate Change, it was truly amazing! And today the documentary focusing on the process has been released, be sure to check it out!

[Laura Austin Sydes @Itslauraas]

@BarryJWoods I'm not surprised some people disagree with the assembly, however I know the members were not puppets as that report suggests. Many members were passionate about achieving net zero and there were many different opinions on how this could be done, as is reflected in the results.
