We’ve just spent an excellent two days with @lakedistrictnpa talking business, finance & the pressures faced during & post pandemic. We also found time to connect into their outcome delivery on the ground. Huge thanks to @LakesChief & @LakesRangers for hosting us & the insights🙏

Sadly, although I wrote this a couple of years ago, it’s still as relevant as ever.

Let’s do this 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿!Horrendous things..

[Defra UK @DefraGovUK]

Every year, an estimated 3.4 billion single-use plates and cutlery are used in England. 🍴

Only 10% are recycled.

We’re committed to reducing plastic pollution. From October, we’re banning the supply of many #SingleUsePlastic items: https://t.co/R5y2wUfkYB

[Shit Lawns @Shitlawns]

With all this media coverage, ignorance is no longer a defence! If you choose to treat your garden like a cheese sandwich and cover it in plastic, you are doing so knowing full well the damage you're causing for all of us.

At 1500 on Sun 23 April, most mobile phones in the country will receive this test of #EmergencyAlerts, the culmination of a multi year, cross-gov project and the beginning of a new national warning capability in the UK that will save lives.

Yet another neighbour asking for Artificial Grass installer recommendations. I'm still using my trusty graphic to change hearts and minds away from @Shitlawns and towards repairing soils and relaying a real one.

[3G ⚽️ PITCHES: HEALTH RISKS, ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE @Against_3G]

This is absolutely awful, so shocking.
It seems that too many people are oblivious to the fact that this rubbish is destroying our Earth.
If you're concerned too, then please contact me... We all need to work together as a proper organised group to fight this. How do we do start?

[Chris HB @HaynesBrown]

I took my leadership team to Sheffield this week, a day of business and then a day of connecting back into outcome delivery with an overview of the city’s flooding history, flood assets, grey to green measures & natural flood mgmt. Huge thanks to David Oake & @AdamBaylissEA 👌

[Shit Lawns @Shitlawns]

The cost to restore a front and back garden makes it blatantly obvious that laying artificial grass will devalue your home. Buyers can and should demand its removal before sale.

@RSPBEngland #BigGardenBirdWatch2023 in full swing in the HB household, usual refreshments at the ready! Female Blackcap, Jenny Wren and Long Tailed Tits the highlight so far 👌

@adelangers Naturally, I did wonder why cameras followed me back from #dartmoorchristmastreefarm this year. Who doesn’t want a Quattro delivered tree for chrimbo …… 🎄

[Chris HB @HaynesBrown]

@adelangers Sending a big bear hug and big thanks to your helmet for doing what it’s supposed to do. If your not pushing, your not trying 😉😘
