Net zero policy. Tired dad. I like green cities, libraries, big rocks. Always reading, sometimes just looking at the pictures.🌱

I don’t think there’s any ‘joke’ more tired and hack than the ‘vegans will tell you they’re vegan’ trope. Can we just retire it please? It makes you look like you’ve been asleep for the last 20 years.

The astonishing optimism of Alfie's dad taking a book AND a newspaper on a trip to the park with a four-year-old child.

That is very bad luck. To make a transphobic comment on the one day in recorded history the British media and political class have decided they actually don't like transphobia.

Did you know that green screens on roadsides reduce N02 & PM10's by between 36%-41% from passing vehicles according to research by @KingsCollegeLon
🌿We've installed 70m of ivy screens along the busy A1 Archway Rd @IslingtonBC to reduce pollution & increase the local biodiversity

@ReadingCouncil any chance of keeping the Christchurch Meadows paddling pool open for another week, given the weather?

@Borners1 @Victoria_Payne Scotland and Wales both have spatial plans and have otherwise comparable planning systems to England, built on the 1947 act. Not sure why England feels uniquely unable to do so.

@lucycpickford This is one of your better moments

[Benjamin Brown @publicbenemy]

@john_self Completely agree. Whit, Dead Air, etc. were just unremarkable. The Business is one of the worst novels I've ever read.

@JTasioulas Can't believe I'm the first to say: Baudrillard.

Not so high effort, but extremely low reward.

Check out this brand new masterpiece in Norway 🇳🇴 🚲

It's Europe's longest bicycle tunnel, which reduces cycling time to Bergen from 40 to 10 minutes.

Excellent cycling facilities are the way to get more people on bikes and leave their cars behind.
