Leeds Climate Emergency

Lobbying for Leeds to become a lower carbon city that also gives nature space to bounce back. We want change...NOW!

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

Take note and act...NOW, not in a few years. No excuses cut it anymore. Start by only mowing most grass patches once a year in September. Leave some ground rough, remove invasive species, & stop felling trees @LeedsCC_Help @LeedsCC_CEAQ @LeedsParks @LeedsCC_News @cllrjudithblake

@GaryLineker Richard Madeley shows himself up as a chauvinistic, ignorant mansplainer. Embarrassing, rude, and outrageous behaviour. He is the epitome of everything that's wrong with this country.

Meanwhile, Wales and @NatResWales are still living in the Stone Age when it comes to beaver…

They shoot their hounds , they whip their hounds , they punch their horses . They kill people’s pets , damage their property , break the law and rip our diminishing wildlife to pieces for fun . But they won’t be doing it legally on @nationaltrust land anymore . Good riddance .

@CllrWalshaw @networkrail Nothing ever changes. Mature trees constantly being felled. If it's not planning determinations for false prophet 'growth' nonsense, it's crap like this. Everything we are doing is a heinous contradiction. Decisions like this show the futility of our situation. There is no hope.

@Joe_Hooter @ChrisGPackham @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 The staff are robots following flawed arguments from old men who won't change, and from Councillors that pander to noisy members of their wards. Local Authorities to blame for much of our biodiversity loss, thru destructive land management & house/road building. I'm 65 & I weep!

Sent to us from resident in Chapel A. Cancer chemicals sprayed by @LeedsCC_News close to School grounds. Caterpillars, insects, & habitat refuge decimated. When will u start delivering against your promises? Stop wasting taxpayer money on ecocide @helenhayden01 @ChrisGPackham

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@andyjowett11 @HanbyAndrew @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 @ChrisGPackham 100% agree

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@AGLovesnature @ChrisGPackham @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 Well said. Unless we all put this point across to Elected Members, in large numbers, nothing will change and the old destructive ways will carry on

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@AGLovesnature @ChrisGPackham @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 It feels like nothing. The Council always has excuses. Local Gov is one of the most complicit actors in driving wildlife decline in this country. No question

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@JessinRuislip @ChrisGPackham @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 There is already access for pedestrians and cyclists. But no access for wildlife anymore!

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@AGLovesnature @ChrisGPackham @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 And it was a beautiful wildflower area....doing no harm! Now it's a waste land that will be covered in litter within days.

@BakedbeanEEP @LeedsCC_News @helenhayden01 @ChrisGPackham Please feel free

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@ChrisGPackham @NWPolice This was 100% the fishing sector. Why else? No other logical explanation. Absolute spineless idiots.

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@ChrisGPackham @HuntSabs Absolutely despicable. These disgusting sub-human scumbags. I'm sickened. I hope the bloody police take this seriously. This is attempted murder in my book. Unbelievably brave guy.

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@RaptorPersScot @ChrisGPackham @MarkAvery @RuthTingay @ReviveCoalition @Team4Nature @natalieben @IoloWilliams2 @AlisonJohnstone @markruskell The custodians of the countryside? Death threats? Absolutely despicable and shows the calibre and mentality of people involved in wildlife crime in rural communities. There will be associates of those responsible that know about this. To those people, have some damn integrity.

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

How is this acceptable? @LeedsCC_Help @ChapelA_Labour @CaraChapelA litter & building waste everywhere on Potternewton Ln. Must have been complaints? Perpetrators seem to b #billdysonskips & #whitkirkbuildingservices. Scandalous non-compliance w/ environmental laws. Enforcement???

[Leeds Climate Emergency @LeedsClimate]

@IPM566 @PaulChatterton9 @LeedsCC_News Most of those councillors came across as dumb & unenlightened. That's what happens when no-one cares about local politics & u get these unqualified, inarticulate morons elected by default..because they were the only people who turned up. Labour don't give a toss about environment
