When there is not enough food, when all your money means nothing, you will wish you had listened to the climate activists

So used to expensive, unreliable public transport, we have stopped believing better is possible. It is!

I've signed an amendment to throw out the Public Order Bill at 2nd Reading on Monday. The Bill expands police powers of stop and search and the expansion of powers to restrict protest and civil disobedience. Ask your MP to sign it today.

We are entering a period of rapid environmental collapse. If WG truly believe the science, why is the First Minister not broadcasting daily - flanked by @Amanwy and @JulieJamesMS - to inform the population? He did it for Covid - this is worse.
We support #Heddwch100 🕊️ At a time when world peace is under threat and as nations work together to tackle the climate emergency - the message and work of the @Urdd has never been more significant. Here's our @PrifWeinidog in Oslo 👇 ➡️ urdd.cymru/en/peace-and-good…

Wye no action from @WelshGovernment, when the significant pollution problems on the River Wye are now widely acknowledged? Ask @PrifWeinidog & @JulieJamesMS to commit to a new joint action plan, properly funded and resourced ✊📢 #SavetheWye wtru.st/wye-no-action
For RCT, the car is the future - until the UK's seventh most susceptible borough is flooded again. Cue crocodile tears and handwringing. Climate change is real. Ecological destruction is real. RCT need to get real. Not subject to Road Review @Amanwy?
The Council has now appointed a contractor to deliver the A4119 dualling scheme from Coed Ely to Ynysmaerdy – and can confirm that the main construction phase is on course to start on site in late summer 2022. Full details here: orlo.uk/DaPX0

As we face a crisis on so many fronts - from the cost of living to the environment and war - we need media like @voice_wales. We’ve shown what we can do on a shoestring, now we need your help to do far more. indiegogo.com/projects/voice…

Bypasses are such tempting 'easy' solutions... That totally ignore the complexity of transport problems, and most importantly, the reality of induced demand 😥

This just proves that it is possible to do things differently. Car traffic isn't a given, it is a conscious decision by too many decision makers
Remember this picture every single time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970's via @fietsprofessor. The cities we admire made better choices regarding cars, and are still making them today. Better choices instead of excuses.

This is the climate crisis, fueled by @Shell & Co:
Jacobabad Pakistan, hitting half century today! Still our politicians only think about the next five years to get reelected. This is in justice with our future ✊ #HeatwaveInPakistan

Urgent reminder that peat is 50% carbon. When you remove peat from its protective boggy ecosystem and spread it in your garden, that carbon ends up in the atmosphere. Peat in bogs not bags. Spread the word. Go #peatfree.

Making money available alone won't cut it when some councils still lack of interest. The #climatecrisis is real & we need to do anything we can to move out of our cars. It's always a good idea to get in touch with your councillors & ask for more action! bbc.com/news/uk-wales-politi…

We need a public transport system that runs well and is affordable so leaving the car at home is a positive, easy choice for people to make. #ActiveTravel #LevellingUp

Continuous investment will be essential in getting our active travel network in #Wales up to scratch - great to see the @WelshGovernment & @Amanwy's ongoing commitment to delivering more & better on this agenda.
Our wheely big investment of £50m will encourage cycle use and help Wales meet net zero. Deputy Minister for Climate Change @amanwy talked about how the money will be put to use on his visit to cycling charity @PedalPower_Diff. More here 👉 gov.wales/wheely-big-investm…

🔥🔥🔥 We disrupted @KwasiKwarteng's business lunch, together with @GNDRising, to demand that the UK govt #StopJackdaw and #StopNewFields. We need a windfall tax, huge investment in energy efficiency and renewables, NOT new oil and gas ❌

How indeed. This was brought up at planning committee. It made not a blind bit of difference. RCT will have their road regardless of any evidence and irrespective of environmental damage. We are in a crisis. RCT is in denial.
