Sadly, development is just focused on new road capacity - the New Carrington Allocation is focused around 4 major new roads, not public transport hubs & sustainable freight was not even considered not even for the future! and @PINSgov approved it!!!
We need better transport, for people, places and planet.

Imagine how different the world would be if we never questioned the things weโ€™ve always been taught to accept. ๐Ÿ’ญ By challenging the normalised use of animals, we can help create a world rooted in justice, freedom, and respect for all sentient beings. ๐ŸŒฑโœŠ ๐Ÿ“ธ @WeAnimals | seb.alex (IG)ย  #veganquote #quote #inspirationalquote

Animals may not speak our language, but they are not voiceless. ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿท๐Ÿ” They scream, struggle and resist. They show us their fear and their desire to live. ๐Ÿ’” The message is clear. We just choose not to listen. If we did, weโ€™d stop exploiting them and go vegan. ๐ŸŒฑ ๐Ÿ“ธ bearwitnessaustralia (IG) | @WeAnimalsย  #voiceless #veganquote #veganshare

Cows and pigs are sometimes sent to slaughter when they're pregnant. How can something like that be justified? ๐Ÿ˜ž๐Ÿ’” #vegan #animalrights #pigs

Let's not ignore reality: letโ€™s not ignore the lives of animals that yearn for freedom ๐Ÿ’” Our culture will never be a justification we accept for the use and exploitation of others. Let's consider what it means to be in the position of these animals ๐Ÿ™ What we have portrayed as desirable, beautiful, traditional, or "cultural" actually conceals a great deal of violence ๐Ÿ‘‡ Deprivation of freedom, the use of bodies as reproductive machines, and the exploitation of animals for entertainment, even when it may cost them their lives, such as in rodeos, cockfighting, greyhound or horse racingโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ž Let's celebrate our culture without financing animal exploitation, and, in the process, transition to veganism ๐Ÿ™‹ ๐ŸŽฅ alba.activista (IG) x @teamveganfta #veganfortheanimals #animalrights #veganism

Trafford Residents, please sign & share our petition requesting that Trafford considers the alternative option for the Carrington Relief Road, it will be less expensive, less harmful & more beneficial for residents but Trafford is refusing to consider it! actionnetwork.org/petitions/โ€ฆ
When "growth" is measured only by GDP we all lose out. Wild birds are disappearing because a system built on greed doesn't value ecosystems that sustain life. Birdsong falls silent. BlackRock profits. We should measure progress by what actually makes our lives better.

Trafford's proposed route for the CRR will cause 'County Scale' decline in red listed bird species but they will not consider the alternative despite it being much more cost effective, much less harmful & much more beneficial for local communities. theguardian.com/environment/โ€ฆ

I want you to imagine yourself as this pig, who I named Nellie. Nellie woke up in an unremarkable building in Iowa and was transferred into an unremarkable truck with dozens of her fellow pigs. They were then driven over 24 hours straight from Iowa (in the middle of the USA) to a slaughterhouse in Los Angeles, all with NO food and NO water. That's where I met her when I attended a vigil w/ LA Animal Save. I made eye contact with Nellie for 60 seconds before the truck pulled away, entered the slaughterhouse, and Nellie was slaughtered to become bacon or ham or pork. ๐Ÿ’” It's too late for Nellie, but not for the many pigs and other farm animals who you can prevent from sharing their fate. Through your food choices but also by sharing stories just like hers to humanize these poor, innocent creatures who were simply unlucky enough to be born as the animals we raise and kill just to needlessly consume. ๐Ÿงก
