@TerraCycleUK Thank you!

@TerraCycleUK for the toothpaste recycling scheme, do the toothpaste tubes need to be cut open and cleaned out, or just squeeze as much out as possible and put the lids back on?

[Flight Free UK @FlightFreeUK]

At a time of climate emergency we need to drastically reduce our fossil fuel use, and in that context, it beggars belief that planes fly empty.

Sign the petition to ask the Government to put an end to 'ghost' flights 👇

.@Laura__Farris We are a bit surprised by this given you said you wanted to protect our waterways? Please help us understand why you voted this way 🤔

[Claire Willsher @WillsherClaire]

So it turns out my MP @Laura__Farris voted against amendments to strengthen the #EnvironmentBill. Why would you not want to make water firms cut sewage discharge into our waterways? #newbury #westberks @XR_Newbury @WestBerksCAN @newburygreens @NewburyToday @RichardHRBenyon

Carbon pricing is a relatively simple way to address the climate emergency. Please sign this petition to get the subject debated in the @UKParliament. Last day is tomorrow!

@McDonaldsUK Is it vegan? There’s some really good vegan burgers on the market now. Really frustrated that McDonalds don’t sell any. Seitan is my favourite 😋

Thanks for the shout out @XR_Newbury ! 🌲🌲🌲🥳

[Extinction Rebellion Newbury ⏳🌎 @XR_Newbury]

Well done and thank you to @WestBerksCAN for organising the distribution and planting of 420 saplings around the district. These trees will capture about 8 tonnes of carbon per year over their lifetime, equivalent to about 1.5 people's annual carbon footprint in WB. 👏👏👏

[Newbury Town Council @NewburyTC]

This is well worth signing! Let’s keep asking the Government to step up and do more on the #ClimateEmergency #CEEBill

[Claire Willsher @WillsherClaire]

I've signed the petition calling on @BorisJohnson to tackle the climate emergency with the Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill to drastically reduce our emissions. Will you add your name? @CEEBill_NOW #CEEBill https://t.co/0UcF1N2vRi
