"I understand why you're doing it but for heaven's sake...

...and then you see the scenes in Spain."

It's a relief to see @mrjamesob connecting the dots. So few journalists are. Direct action from ordinary people is needed more than ever to force those in power to act.

Let's take a moment to appreciate the small steps that make a big impact. Our strategically placed garbage bins are champions in the fight against this rampant problem. Every piece of litter properly disposed of brings us one step closer to a cleaner, greener world. 🌳 🗑️

These fields and hills beyond recall are now our very own. Today, we celebrate 57 years of Independence and 2 years of being a republic. 🇧🇧

Last month, we asked a Trailway user how we could improve the trail. One of the great suggestions she made was to install exercise equipment, so our chairman checked out some options. 💪🏿

What other improvements would you recommend we add? We care about your suggestions! 🌞

According to the ITDP, about 7% of urban trips globally are taken by bicycle and e-bike. If we increase this number to 23%, we could reap many benefits. 🚲⁠⁠
