'Breathing fresh air' in our cities is my drive and focus with the partners we have and the work we do at Fernhay

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

What makes us human? An ability to create memories that we can replay; an imagination to invent beauty; a hope for a future in the path we take.

Interesting article on coffee drinking in China ousting the elegant and gentle process associated with Tea.
In my own life. I have a slow process for making coffee and it makes me relax.
Ergo the US version of coffee culture is opposite to mine

Unfortunately that appears to be the issue. Often people vote for things that affect them personaly and in the near term.
So how do we resolve the problem of making this personal beyond the simple statement "what about your children".

‘You’ll die of old age. I’ll die of climate change”. Hugely inspiring & deeply shaming in equal parts - great to join a massive school climate strike in Oslo today #fridaysforfuture #schoolstrike4climate #climatestrike #Klimastreik

@dunks517 Perhaps they support driving on the right and are actually closet Europeans
🤣

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Our partners @UPS_UK on stage discussing sustainable fuels and cycle logistics. @TheEconomist sustainability event.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

It's an interesting and common view, but I always find that if there is no market for a companies products, then the company seases trading... as an environmentalist myself we need to get the worlds consumers of oil to no longer want it? Yes?

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Great to be semi finalists. @Shell_UKLtd competition forces you into asking the questions on how to scale up. @fernhay director Frances talking to our fellow competitors and sharing views on growing a business.

[Shell UK @Shell_UKLtd]

Funding is a key hurdle for many start-ups, so we brought together investors and entrepreneurs to answer the crucial questions around financing a business 💸🙋 #SMEs #finance #ShellSpringboard

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Its got to the time of year when the workshops stove fires up... lovely time of year, but then so is winter and spring and summer 😊

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

It's killing me... Who would have thought an electric car could look so good. Probably best stop making it 😎

[E.W. Niedermeyer @Tweetermeyer]

These things are amazing, and I constantly forget that VW actually made and sold a few.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Education and especialy that of women can make the biggest diference to creating a mass movement to work towards a society that tacles the biggest of issues. Well done and tha k you @Quebec_UK for making and driving these events.

[Québec à Londres @QuebecUK]

Many thanks to this year's sponsors: @FaskenLaw and @DesjardinsGroup. It would not have been possible without your generous support.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Very thought provoking. You need to solve inequity in society if you want to solve climate change. Quite an interesting thought... thank you @Quebec_UK

[Québec à Londres @QuebecUK]

@JohnColemanQc is welcoming participants to this year's #Quebec Annual Lecture. On attend avec impatience, la présentation de @JeanLemire dans quelques minutes.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

More funny in Liverpool where everyone talks to you than on a cummuter train in London!

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Regukatio can only go so far to stop accidents. We developed a code of practice in our @innovateuk logistics project which we will use when we start further London trials in a few weeks with partners.

[Ivor Chomacki @Ivor_Ch]

Note "Funding will be conditional on individual businesses following a code of cycle safety good practice" @transportgovuk @freightincity @PedalandPost @Oxwash

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

I like this. Thought it would shoe a congested street. We need to show positive futures. I remember the pioneering work of @arupforesight but at the time it had to show negative messages. This is far more appealing and something we want to walk or cycle towards.

[Joanna Yarrow @joannayarrow]

Shocking congestion in Copenhagen today! This is what the future looks like (I hope and pray) #climateaction #lowcarbonliving

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

So glad as an engineer i can look at what @fernhay are doing on last mile deliveries and not react like Dilbert today. Happy working on a worthwhile city chalenge.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

To realy make last mile rock you dont start in the city with a bicycle, you have to start at a country level and not handle parcels from country hub to customer door and beyond. Love the @fernhay @UPS_UK partnership on this and @DubCityCouncil support for our dream.

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

I am sure we all debated this at the begining of @OLEVgovuk under the title stranded assets .. and who maintain and pay for them 😊

[LondonLivingStreets @LDN_LS]

Let’s not install EV infrastructure that might not be used, says @susanclaris. Build into road and build a community resource: her ReCharge Parklet has EV charge point but much, much more for all the community, eg bench, greenery, bike pump... #EVimpact

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Thank you @smartdublin creating a city test bed for our innovation with @UPS_UK is absolutelly how public private partberships can solve big societal chalenges 😁

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Realy pleased to be working with #smartdublin on creative and innovative projects in @DubCityCouncil @belfastcc with our partners @UPS_UK such a progressive and positive attitude to innovation

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Ok Michael, you need to think lateraly! Get on to strictly as a famous government EV pioneer and change the #StrictlyComeDancing agenda!

[Michael Hurwitz @michael_hurwitz]

After only a few short hours the potentially civilisation-shattering #IPCC report fades away from the ��@BBCNews⁩ front page. Need to find a way of making the world’s most important story as compelling as Strictly gossip...

[Ray Whaler @RayWhaler]

Business partner just motivated me to get going! So looking forward to the start of a new @fernhay journey in Dublin tomorow.
