“30 million birds have vanished from our skies in the last 50 years—97% of wildflower meadows have been eradicated since the 1930s—and a quarter of all mammals are at risk of extinction. You’d think this would send alarm bells ringing in the corridors of power, but it isn’t. The public are tired of paper thin promises—we need new environmental laws—and it’s why I’m asking @RishiSunak to deliver the #naturepositive future he’s promised by backing the Climate & Ecology Bill.”—@BirdgirlUK

Lancaster, CA transformed its downtown in just 8 months by redesigning it's main street from a mini-highway to a tree-lined boulevard.

For the cost of just $11.5M, the project has generated $273M in economic output since 2010, creating 800 jobs, and nearly doubling tax revenue!

I really think this is terribly disruptive & inconsiderate to block a road like this. Don’t the people responsible for causing this know that people have to get to work, get to daycare to pick up kids? Someone needs to be held responsible! We must not tolerate this.

In Paris, owners of big, heavy cars will have to pay extra to park.

Deputy Mayor: “There are no dirt paths , no mountain roads … SUVs are absolutely useless in Paris. Worse, they are dangerous, cumbersome and use too many resources to manufacture."

Dear councils, 97% of UK meadows are gone. So if you have wildflowers like ox-eye daisies on roadverges and in public spaces, don't spray them with weedkiller or over-mow them. Let's give pollinating insects like bees and butterflies a chance 🐝

Water companies are hard at work after the bank holiday weekend turning our coastlines into open sewers... We're so sick of this sh*t! 🤬💩

I love that despite it being 2023, the police seems unable to grasp that if you allow a small group of people to protest, it'll gather much less attention than if you arrested them for trying to protest.

[Amnesty UK @AmnestyUK]

Protest is a human right.
Our right to protest is protected by the Human Rights Act.
Our right to protest is protected by international law.

Don’t let anyone tell you different
