@TooGoodToGo_UK @waitrose I remember @waitrose being on the @TooGoodToGo_UK app in Kings Cross for a little while - what made you stop? Would be great to see you back on there!

My daughter went to throw away her bottle of water and she was walking past Waitrose ( no she doesn’t shop there) she opens the bin and look what she found, bins full of food past their sell by date yesterday. When people are hungry this is a disgrace, shame on you Waitrose

Another 6820kg out of the ocean marks Jenny’s 23rd extraction so far and the last one before heading back to port for a crew change and offload. System 002's total catch is 55,020kg so far; 1/1500th of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

Time to ban industrial super trawlers. Possibly the biggest single killers of marine life.

To solve the plastic pollution problem, we must understand its dimensions. Knowing the amount and type of plastic accumulated in the garbage patches helps determine the cleanup system design, costs, and plastic ‘hot spots’ in the patch (as the plastic is not evenly distributed).

Plastic Extraction at 33° 21.4' N 142° 15.2' W on 27/01.

A Carbon Neutral steak restaurant... sounds like the biggest load of #greenwash I've ever heard 🐄💩

[Hawksmoor @HawksmoorTweets]

In November we announced our commitment to go carbon neutral in 2022. We did that ahead of schedule at the end of last year. Hawksmoor is now a carbon neutral restaurant group (and, we think, the first group of steak restaurants to become carbon neutral). 1/5

🇨🇱 Images from the Atacama desert, which has become a dumpster for the global fast fashion industry. Over 100,000 tons of clothing, many of them new items with price tags that weren't sold or used, have been dumped in the Atacama desert in Chile.

@jeremycorbyn Offshore workers need retraining, support and good green jobs - can we please invest in that and not new oil and gas? Please tell @BorisJohnson to show leadership on this as Prime Minister. #StopCambo

[Starve the Beast @EndBlackBags]

Hey @ellenrgibson, help us spotlight London's 7 incinerators pumping millions of tonnes of CO2 and toxic fumes over us. In north London we have a key vote on 16 Dec where the NLWA will award a £1.12 BILLION contract to build an even bigger incinerator. Help us spread the word pls

[Girl vs Plastic @girlvsplastic]

@endblackbags Crazy world indeed 🤯🤯 think how better that money could be spent on adult and child social care, on green jobs and infrastructure, on helping every one eat and healthy and sustainable diet… so many other options.

[Girl vs Plastic @girlvsplastic]

Since signing the Paris Agreement, the UK paid £3.2 billion of public money to North Sea oil and gas companies 💷 #PaidToPollute

Our money is better spent on decent, green jobs and a #JustTransition 🌍

Support the case. Demand a better future:

I just asked my MP @jeremycorbyn to support @TooGoodToGo_UK’s mission to end food waste by pressuring the government to pass a law that will help halve food waste by 2030. You can do the same here: https://t.co/MagtFW5fNs
