In addition to this, Rwanda also has one of the highest femal labour force participation rates, low gender pay gap and had the most women in parliament in 2017 #progress#rwanda
Rwanda’s health system has become a model for other nations to follow. The country’s example should inspire all leaders to renew their commitments to primary health care. #Astana2018
Our unchecked use of throwaway plastics has large environmental consequences - yet it is something the majority of us are blissfully unaware of #plasticpollution@Greenpeace@guardianeco
If you care about security, you should care about climate change
If you care about the economy you should care about climate change
If you care about health you should care about climate change
If you care about food you should care about climate change https://t.co/8mUiBMZWTs
Thanks for the interesting thread and article @GregorMacdonald. How do you think the inevitable influx of second hand #EV batteries will impact the stationary storage market?
1/Over the past three months, I’ve undertaken a very deep dive into energy-storage. I’ve read tons of literature, spoken to professionals and policy makers, eventually giving me a view of the current landscape. I’ve got pieces coming soon in @routefifty and @pvmagazine
Today’s cradle-to-grave system's destructive qualities are fundamentally a design problem, not an inevitable outcome of human activity. Good design can transform the making of things — products, buildings + community plans — into a positive, regenerative force #CradletoCradle
Yep, and building a third runway at Heathrow, starting fracking, freezing fuel duty, banning on-shore wind, removing all solar subsidies, cancelling zero carbon homes, and many other actions of UK Government, are entirely incompatible with this.
Extreme poverty is down 75% in 30 years resulting in 50% of the world being middle class or richer. Important human progress but because it's a gradual improvement it won't make mainstream media #poverty@BrookingsInst@sapinker@Gapminder@BillGates

Over 139 million tons of agricultural straw waste is produced in Europe each year. How can we use the European Space Agency's satellite imagery to better exploit this resource to produce bio-chemicals?

Awesome stuff from @CarbonBrief. Helping raise awareness of the likely impacts of #climatechange.
Take some time to check it out and appreciate the vast amount of work and data behind it.

High resolution satellite imagery and #SpectralAnalysis are key components in #PrecisionAgriculture with aims to reduce waste, plan more efficiently and better respond to localized changes. This is a great piece on just one of the many ways to streamline the industry.
False balance can lead to the public being misled over the realities of climate change - which makes it encouraging to see organisations such as the @BBC proactively addressing the problem (even if it is long overdue). @CarbonBrief@guardianeco
