Since the Commission's inception back in 2021, we've used this account to share & inspire progress from across the region on the climate & nature crises.

However, because of recent changes on the platform, we will no longer be posting on this account.

Come & find us on these!👇

What role can regions play in galvanising decisive #ClimateAction in the UK?

@YHClimateCom research shows how Yorkshire & Humber can achieve #NetZero & adapt to a changing climate. It calls for government to enable this through a mission-driven approach.

We know there's lots of groups doing great work across Yorkshire and the Humber running #repaircafes, libraries of things and share/reuse initiatives.

If you're involved, please do our quick survey (link below). We would love to hear about what would be helpful for you. 🖊️

I try to be a pragmatist, especially about tackling the nature and climate emergencies we face - which is why I’m excited to read the @YHClimateCom Climate Action Plan this morning. A few pages in & already lots of practical ways forward. #ClimateCrisis #NatureEmergency
