@BorisJohnson – giving the green-light to the first deep coal mine in 30 years goes against any efforts to tackle the #climate crisis. Stop the Cumbria coal mine. #EndCoal

We're facing a #ClimateEmergency. Trees can help. I've signed this @friends_earth petition demanding a government commitment to double tree cover. Join our call for more #TreesforClimate #MoreTreesPlease https://t.co/Yo4jZtneyi

I’ve just emailed @RuthCadbury #Brentford #Isleworth asking to call for a ban on #supertrawlers fishing in UK Marine Protected Areas. Is your MP speaking up for vulnerable marine life? Urge them to #ProtectTheOceans > https://t.co/qLkBDwIcQr

Thanks @thebodycoach for highlighting reusable nappies (diapers) in yesterday's P.E. session. We use @BambinoMio for our 19 month old. Hadn't realised bog-standard disposables can make up 2-8% of landfill volume until reading 'No. More. Plastic' by Martin Dorey #2minutesolution

So here’s a little infection-control tip a nurse once gave me in hospital. “This might save your life one day” she said. “Always press lift buttons with your knuckle and not your fingertips, you don’t touch food with your knuckles”. #CoronaOutbreak

#ClimateChange is amplified in the polar regions - but if we protect Antarctica, we can restore the health of the entire planet.

Hear more on what we must do from our ambassador Sir David Attenborough. 👇 #ShareOurPlanet #SevenWorldsOnePlanet

Celebrated the 15th anniversary of @parkrun by completing my 150th run as a #parkruntourist @henleyparkrun - a tough but outstanding trail run! Thank you to everyone who has made #parkrun15 possible. Here's to the next 15 years #parkrun30 #15yearsrunning

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

One challenge will define the future for today’s young generation more dramatically than any other: Climate change. The millions of young people worldwide who’ve organized and joined today’s #ClimateStrike demand action to protect our planet, and they deserve it.

An enlightening and handy Tuna consumer guide from @Greenpeace. We'll certainly be avoiding #johnwest #johnworst @johnwest_uk due to your destructive fishing methods. Thank you @GreenpeaceUK @GPUKoceans.

My 3-year experiment is out today! This is a biodegradable plastic bag after 3-years in the marine environment, and it can hold a full bag of shopping. Biodegradable/compostable items do not necessarily break down quickly in natural environments like the ocean 🌊

Roped in the family (#punintended) for a #2minutebeachclean at #marloessands #pembrokeshire. There's a LOT of plastic in the bucket (>100 pieces), including a 10 year old margarine tub lid 😱 #oceanplastic #plasticpollution

[Matthew Cokeham @MCokeham]

@Brabantia great product, but does it really need to come in 3 separate plastic bags? The cardboard box would surely be sufficient alone? #pointlessplastics #lovebrabantia #hateplastic #WarOnPlastic

ONE MILLION plastic bottles are sold very minute. 91% of all plastic isn't recycled. 450 years is a LONG time for that bottle to be around.
Can you refuse some single use plastic today? RT if you have! #ClimateChange #singleuseplastic #WednesdayWisdom #oceansdayeveryday
