'We need our leaders to put on their big boy pants' - @NakabuyeHildaF absolutely nails the challenge to leaders at #UNGA76 and beyond.

We need to act now before it's too late on climate change and give young people a meaningful role at the table

@TeamKnowhowUK @HPUK @CTSI_UK Thanks Elliott, all sorted now, but I’m hoping my experience was a one off, as it wasn’t great

[Emma Brown @Emma_Bakker]

@curryspcworld @HPUK I’ve just bought a new printer with #instantink and the 5m free trial of ink. Love the system but HP customer service is refusing to honour the trial. Just told me the expiry on click & collect receipt makes it void. False advertising or mistake? @CTSI_UK

@samjoshwilliams This whole situation is frightening. I dread to think what’s coming

[1News @1NewsNZ]

1 NEWS's Wendy Petrie is on standby at @jacindaardern's house as the election results trickle in, but she's not alone. The @nzlabour leader's fiancé, Clarke Gayford, popped out with some snacks for a chat. #YourVote2020

[Emma Brown @Emma_Bakker]

Absolutely stoked to hear @jacindaardern is back in - #NZ again leading the way as a shining light in such tough times.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

This is me at the age of 2 in 2005.
Since then about one third of ALL our fossil fuel CO2 emissions have occurred.
Over half of our CO2 emissions have taken place since 1990.

That sort of gives you an idea of how fast we’re racing in the wrong direction.
