People who complain about sensible speed limits are like the people who complained about drink driving laws.

This is about saving lives.

Using 'accident' to describe a crash implies no one was at fault, and that the crash was unexpected and unavoidable. Road deaths are preventable and often caused by the actions of drivers, and the failure of our transport and legal systems. It's time to end the language of denial

[Melissa & Chris Bruntlett @modacitylife]

With 58% of all trips nationally made by bike, teenagers are among the biggest beneficiaries of Dutch infrastructure.

From a young age, they enjoy the freedom of a driver’s license; without the added stress, cost and danger.

To kick off #CleanAirDay, here's a message from Larissa Lockwood, Director of Clean Air, @globalactplan: 🧵

“Over the last week, we have watched images of the darkened orange skies over North America and of wildfires in Scotland, and seen a high air pollution alert in London.

Made it to #TheBigOne #XR today to celebrate #EarthDay What a beautiful celebration of our planet's biodiversity. But climate change is real; we need our Government to #ActNow

"I am hopeful, because of you. You have been relentless in holding decisionmakers to account...No, I think that I was given the wrong speech. I am going to speak to the group of young people afterwards, I apologise."

The figures are staggering. 1.3 million die a year in car crashes. The leading cause of death globally among young people 5-29 years old. Good riddance. https://t.co/xCqsnFZr1t

The departure of Boris Johnson opens a new page in relations with 🇬🇧 .

May it be more constructive, more respectful of commitments made, in particular regarding peace & stability in NI, and more friendly with partners in 🇪🇺.

Because there’s so much more to be done together.

🧵Feeding Britain from @SusFoodTrust adds to growing weight of evidence for transformative change to the food system 👏

It reflects findings of @FFC_Commission TYFA modelling with @IDDRI_English in #FarmingforChange

What does this look like in the detail?👇#FirFarm22

[Tim Benton @timgbenton]

New paper from us highlighting the assumptions made in aiming for different versions of sustainable agriculture and food systems. Is land sparing and intensification the 'best' way ahead, or demand shifts and agroecology?

Footprint reports a retailer nudging consumers to make healthier choices. The already low supermarket prices do not reflect the true cost of food to nature, climate or society - so how do we move shoppers to be make healthy AND sustainable choices? https://t.co/ur4oZT1Mtm

[suzanne fogg @suzyfogg]

An excellent day at the office with the @SusFoodTrust reaffirming how we accelerate our transition to more sustainable food and farming

[Sustainable Food Trust @SusFoodTrust]

Join the event today at @wrffc21, @AdeleSFT discusses measuring sustainability and what tools we have to do this in relation to on-farm food production. Attend the event online here: https://t.co/LUaYvBx1xR

[Brandon Wu @brandoncwu]

Already seeing articles blaming India for #COP26 "phase down" instead of "out" coal language. REALLY important to see full context here. The problem is not India; the problem is the US & rich countries refusing to couch fossil fuel phaseout in the context of global equity. 🧵

[WWF UK @wwf_uk]

🚨 Glasgow Climate Pact revealed 🚨

The final agreement at #COP26 is disappointing, but it does keep a window open for 1.5°C.

We still have a long way to go.
The hard work to deliver on climate promises must now ramp up.

Danish Minister opens #BOGA launch #COP26: “There is no future for oil and gas in a 1.5 degree world. Just as the Stone Age didn’t end b/c of a lack of stone, the fossil era won’t end b/c there is no oil in the ground but b/c gvts decide to do the right thing.” #KeepItInTheGround

[suzanne fogg @suzyfogg]

This is the leadership and level of ambition we need. Well done Denmark, Costa Rica, France, Ireland, Wales, Sweden. Time for change and to phase out oil and gas.#BOGA

[The Beyond Oil & Gas Alliance @beyondoilgas]

#BOGA is committed to:
👉 raising 🌏 climate ambitions
👉 aligning oil and gas production with the Paris Agreement
👉 creating an international community of practice around supporting and managing a just and equitable phase-out of oil and gas production

"You cannot adapt to starvation, you cannot adapt to extinction, you cannot adapt to lost cultural heritage and you cannot adapt to lost #biodiversity," @vanessa_vash said in a call for #LossAndDamage to be prioritized at #COP26.

As #cop26 winds down, people are finally forcing the conversation towards loss and damage, and it's about time. This is a powerful video
