The Highbury low-traffic neighbourhood (LTN) is here to stay! 🎊

It means that all seven of the LTN trials we introduced between 2020 and 2022 have now been made permanent - and we've got exciting plans to continue to deliver greener, healthier streets for all. (1/3) #COP28

We're very proud of this one - may well be a national first for Islington! An innovative approach to meeting energy needs of much loved festive events 🙂🌎

Lifetime exposure to pollution from domestic wood burning reduces each person’s life expectancy in London by 3 weeks https://t.co/4JttPoOwMb

Open fires and wood-burning stoves have risen in popularity over recent years. Smoke from burning causes air pollution which harms the health of
millions.
We can work together to improve the quality of the air we breathe. https://t.co/x2ZdgiRM9w #woodburning

Did you know? London’s trees provide at least £133M of benefits each year in terms of air pollution removal, carbon sequestration & reducing the amount of water going into drains. See what we are doing to enhance & expand our urban forest #NationalTreeWeek https://t.co/zTltGD3Fhh

In 2019, 740 people were denied their vote in the local council elections because they did not have the right ID on them. Sign @electoralreform's petition to stop the government’s dangerous plans to deny people the vote #SayNoToVoterID https://t.co/eZ9FWWYO9Z
