Last year, there was a lot of talk about what would happen to the waste generated as a result of the introduction of masks. This week, it was announced that all schools and colleges in Cornwall will be given litter pickers made from old hospital masks! https://t.co/pUjOTsOlv1

The UK PM has said he was "increasingly frustrated" at support offered to countries hit hard by global warming. Mr Johnson said "history will judge" countries who "lacked the courage to step up" once the Glasgow conference, called COP26, has finished. https://t.co/JkE6MG5x3Y

Is it possible that there is a metropolitan bias when it comes to the UKs progress towards #netzero? A group of 36 county councils have said #decarbonisation in these regions is slowing because of funding support. What do you think? https://t.co/SSaG0IZ37t
