London councils can talk as much about making the city greener as they like - but we need real action, like wage restoration for cycling instructors after a 14 year pay freeze.

Bring a bike and join us at 11am tomorrow at Lambeth Council for the cycling instructors’ Strike Ride!

Sutton Peregrines. The first chick this year hatched at 09.24 this morning. Its head can be seen to the left of the shell falcon Gwen is eating in the first image. Tiercel Perry has already done a stint of just over an hour brooding.

Lovely to get out and undertake a vernal survey of #QueenMarysWoodland. Amazing to see where we are now, after 10 years of hard work from the woodland being transferred to @SuttonCouncil as part of the Orchard Hill redevelopment.

Nearly every BBC interview I did today about #NetZero asked “but is 2050 ambitious enough?” That would never have happened without @ExtinctionR and @Strike4Youth speaking their truth, and opening out the space for continual ratcheting of ambition. We’re all indebted to them

[Jacky Davis @DrJackyDavis]

Do you really need a panel?

- Pay them a proper wage

- Provide adequate infrastructure

- Identify safe staffing levels and stick to them

- Stop blaming them for system failure

There - that was easy...

We can not acknowledge the climate emergency and have our governments and councils plough ahead with outdated road building schemes!

A friend just sent me her 10 page hospital bill after a straightforward pregnancy and delivery of a well baby.

Hospital - $44,375.76

Obstetrician - $8,323

Anesthesiologist - $2800

Total = $55,500

Medical bills are the commonest cause of bankruptcy in the US.
