Freelancing in IT stuff for very small organisations eg database and website development. Campaigning for better and fairer climate and environmental policies.

I would be more than happy to get emails from this form: https://t.co/c1B4mTtXI9
Why should pedestrians wait more than 30 seconds at Pelican Crossings? @LStreetsBristol @livingstreets

I've signed the @CheshireWT & @DanesMoss petition calling for Cheshire East Council to reject the South Macclesfield Development Area and withdraw Danes Moss North from the Local Plan. We need 5,000 signatures.

I'm just a vision impaired doctoral researcher, standing in front of academic publishers, asking them to make more texts available in audiobook form

[Dig-In Bruntsfield @DiginVeg]

Nice work @Edinburgh_CC for recognising that plant-based proteins have a much lower carbon footprint than meat and dairy and acknowledging that food systems are a main driver of the climate emergency and that a shift towards plant-based diets are required 👏🧵

[Transport Action Network @TransportActio2]

Cuts to buses and trains could get worse with the forthcoming budget. Take our action to tell the Government to stop building new roads we can't afford and to invest in public transport and active travel instead #SaveOurBuses #SaveOurTrains https://t.co/fHgJzvAZOd

[Cycling UK @WeAreCyclingUK]

Most drivers still don't know the #HighwayCode updates one year on. A recent poll shows that 25% of British adults asked weren't even aware of the changes.

We are urging the government to commit to a long-term well-funded public awareness campaign.

[Plant Based Treaty @Plant_Treaty]

Global shifts to plant-based diets could lead to the sequestration of 332–547 GtCO2 by 2050.

This is 8-13 times the current yearly global CO2 emissions.

We’re grateful to Emily at the @patagoniaeurope Manchester store for the opportunity to chat this afternoon about Ethel, our history and our current campaigning work - and hopefully arrange an in-store talk later this year 🤞.

[Eve Holt @evefrancisholt]

I’ve noticed the same along the route. More kids cycling to school, more parents riding with small kids on board, more cargo bikes, more women, more people getting about under their own steam everyday, in everyday clothes.

[Protect the Wild @ProtectTheWild_]

Scotland has shown the rest of the UK how it's done. They've passed a proper ban on fox hunting and the sham that is 'trail hunting'.

RT if you agree that England and Wales need to follow suit!

[Cycling UK @WeAreCyclingUK]

Did you know that around 6% of the UK's population are disabled people who want to cycle? Sadly you don't see many disabled cyclists around. In this article Kate Ball outlines some of the barriers, including the high cost and bad infrastructure: https://t.co/FmP2bPNrWA

[Jon Owen @anotherJon]

A worrying demonstration of the extent to which falsely framing policies implemented by democratically elected politicians as "They're coming for your freedoms!" is such a transmissible lie.

[Brake, the road safety charity @Brakecharity]

Did you know that more than half of fatal crashes in Britain occur on rural roads? Per mile travelled, rural roads are the most dangerous roads for all kinds of road user. Learn about common types of collisions on rural roads: https://t.co/gJCT188z6y

If you want far better bus services in & around Cambridgeshire, as well as City streets safer for walking & cycling for all those between 8 & 80, you can best show support by joining this walking bus next Saturday. Fewer cars make a pleasant place. Don't be driven to distraction!

Let's not forget the villages in shire counties where residents want 20mph limits just as much as their relations in cities where 20mph is the norm. See our briefing at https://t.co/4o3cATTMdE
