At least let your staff take the produce so it's not wasted

@TheRangeUK
Please pay the bearest minimum attention to the garden centre at your Ipswich store as many of the plants are dead or dying. This level of fruit and vegetable waste is scandalous.

President Biden should resign as an act of protest tomorrow so Kamala Harris could be sworn in as the first female president until January.

That would make Trump 48 and ruin that stupid hat of his.

Can we get this trending.

[God @TheTweetOfGod]

In an ideal scenario the President of the United States and the worst person in the world would be two different people.

@BrentToderian Designed for all ages and abilities including older people and people with disabilities. More benches rather than less and encouraged mixing of communities as this brings social policing to ASB.

Paris 🇫🇷 to charge SUV drivers higher parking fees to tackle ‘auto-besity’ 🚙

More of this please👇👇

Removing on street parking in Toronto in favor of dining parklets led to a nearly 50x increase in revenue as compared to parking fees.

The math is common sense - we should build cities for people, not cars!

The irony of moving to a cycling city is we’ve never walked more in our lives.

Endless meandering strolls made desirable because Delft’s streets aren’t drowning in cars.

The greatest trick the auto industry ever pulled was convincing the world walking and cycling can’t coexist.

🌡 Time for a reminder that adding shade & vegetation 🌳 to urban environments helps to reduce the urban heat island effect massively.

A super important tool to keep cities cool during the summer.👇

⁦@LidlGB⁩ your newly planted trees at Crane Boulevard Ipswich look like they're struggling. Do you have a weekly watering plan in place? If not you've condemned them to death. Please help them to thrive and survive 👍🏼🌳💚

Twitter you know how I always rescue caterpillars from the park nettles before the council can kill them? WELL. I have been busy. Behold 265 peacock butterfly chrysalises 🤪

🇫🇷 Paris is removing half its street parking to free up space for people.

🚗 Cars in Paris take up 50% of public space.

I’ve only just been made aware of this wonderful tweet

I highly recommend, everyone looks at it because it affects us all

We are just not paying for the damage we’re doing, but we can fix it should we want to
