Rees-Mogg: motorist's friend; enemy of public health

Greenpeace UK is taking the govt to court to stop @Shell’s Jackdaw gas project.

Jackdaw won't lower energy bills, but it will make the climate crisis worse.

It's time to #StopJackdaw @KwasiKwarteng.

Britain's wildlife is in trouble. Over half our species are declining and many face extinction. We need #WilderNationalParks that can lead the way in tackling the nature and climate crises. Sign @RewildingB’s petition for urgent government action. https://t.co/j7ap3aY6KI

@Michaelgove - scientists, Cumbrian people and even the Prime Minister don’t want the Cumbrian coal mine to be approved - will you listen to them?

[Chris Griffiths @ProfCGriffiths]

Our wetlands are amazing. They tackle climate change, protect wildlife, prevent flooding and help us to de-stress. I’ve pledged my support for the @WWTworldwide #WetlandsCan campaign, calling for 100,000 hectares of wetlands to be created in the UK. https://t.co/oHiw85Xd1r

Ending coal is not enough.

For an agreement at #COP26 that focuses on fairness for people and planet we must end all new fossil fuel projects, including oil and gas @AlokSharma_RDG @BorisJohnson

[Chris Griffiths @ProfCGriffiths]

How can you hold climate talks without including the most affected people? You can't! 

As world leaders sit down at #COP26, activists from @FFFMAPA are sailing up there to send a simple message: #StopFailing. #MAPA

I refuse to stand back as thousands of Londoners breathe in filthy air. Our new Ultra-Low Emission Zone is a major step in cleaning up London’s lethal air and safeguarding the health of all Londoners.

The Dutch have one of the lowest rates of childhood obesity in the EU. What could possibly be the cause? Is it a) chocolate sprinkles for breakfast? Or b) street design that lets kids walk, cycle and play independently (like we all used to do before traffic took over)? Hmmmm
