Every fraction of a degree matters. Every day matters.

Limiting global temperature rise is still possible, but only through concrete, urgent #ClimateAction.

[Andrew Cotter @MrAndrewCotter]

A Good New Year to all when it comes and may you approach 2023 with the tolerance of Olive. Or simply be more like Mabel, with her unwavering yet enormously misplaced belief in her abilities.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Never believe that you're too small to make a difference.
This farmer planted one tree every day for 37 years and transformed a chopped down barren land in Majuli Island, India to a wildlife paradise.

We have the solutions, implement them.

[Migraine World Summit @MigraineSummit]

Migraine attacks affect virtually the entire body, not just our heads. Please don't dismiss migraine as simply a bad headache that can be treated quickly and easily.

"We are losing biodiversity at a rate unparrelled in human history." Global wildlife populations have sunk over 60% since 1970.

We are destroying ourselves and taking nature with us.

Time to protect people and the planet.

[Greenpeace UK @GreenpeaceUK]

Opening a new coal mine during a climate crisis is a crime against the planet.

Pass it on.

Hope lots of #nurses join us to learn more about #genomics & #lungcancer! @avey_bhatia @SigsworthJanice @robinsona1511 @CAlexanderNHS @vsweeney431 @i_kirwan

A 'WORLD' PREMIER
An exciting first for the team (& audience) was the chance to show the 1st of a series of films they've developed for patients covering the main reasons that a referral to a fetal medicine clinic will have been made. @kellycohenLeeds @JenCampbellKhan @NHSgms

Today's shout out 📢goes to @NEYGenomics comms team who have been phenomenal in supporting the national #nursing and #midwifery #genomics transformation programme & in particular the lung pathway team headed up by @nwgmsa @i_kirwan & @gillmosswillink

France is not fucking around

New legislation demands all *existing* carparks with 80 or more spaces must install a solar roof (in 3-5 years)

This could generate up to 11 gigawatts, which is the equivalent of 10 nuclear reactors

£7.1 billion profits in just 3 months for fossil fuel giants like BP. Austerity 2.0, devastating public spending cuts and miserly, well-below-inflation pay rises for the country. Yet Rishi Sunak is wilfully letting this happen. We need a proper, loophole-free, windfall tax NOW

[COP26 @COP26]

🌎 197 leaders
🗓️ 13 days
📜 1 agreement

Nearly one year ago, countries came together at #COP26 to forge the #GlasgowClimatePact.

We can't afford to delay action to keep 1.5°C alive.

At #COP27, the promises made in Glasgow must be promises kept.
