The @Europarl_EN report of @cesarluena to #restorenature was adopted!!!! @ManfredWeber’s @EPPGroup fake new’s campaign against nature failed! Thanks to the massive support of citizens, scientists, businesses and all the MEPs who supported the law!

Matthieu Tolian @Veolia on panel re impact of infrastructure on nature: when Businesses can get value for investing in nature they will do it. Need to find the right business model for it. @nature_org@AFD_France@IUCN
@mehta_pani@WHO Definitely! It’s all a big group effort to lift the sector to where it ought to be, on a comparable basis with other basic services to attract funding on par with the benefits it delivers...
Thanks @mehta_pani great to see how far the @GLAAS_TrackFin initiative has progressed since its inception back in 2012 and is becoming a global public good! @malixprat @goufrane_m kudos to @WHO staff for shepherding it forward!

I've just signed @friends_earth's petition to stop a new coal mine from being built in Cumbria.
If we’re serious about tackling the climate crisis then one new coal mine is a coal mine too many.
