πŸŒπŸ’š No matter who's 'in charge' at No.10 - nature is the real power. Standing by as it declines is NOT an option. Without it, there is no us. We must stand up. πŸ’ͺ 1 week to go. Join thousands of people and over 300 organisations to march for: 1. A Pay rise for nature 2. Make polluters pay 3. More space for nature 4. A right to a healthy environment 5. Fair and effective climate action Meet in Park Lane at noon. πŸ•› We march to Parliament at 1pm. Will you be there?

Things can only get better , right ? In a climate and biodiversity crisis we can’t take that risk . Pledge to march with us on June 22 – nature can’t wait . RestoreNatureNow.com

Will you be part of the #Macclesfield contingent at #restorenaturenow on Sat 22nd? @XR_Macclesfield coordinating and creating wonderful 3D sculptures and nature themed paper crowns. Why not join us?
πŸ“’In just 2 weeks time, tens of thousands of people will march to Parliament to demand that whoever leads the next government, they do more to #RestoreNatureNow The dire need is clear - pollution, species extinction and habitat decimation threatens not just wildlife, but our own future. Funding and protection must be given to nature, polluters must pay for damage caused and emissions must be cut. Effective climate action must be taken. The solutions exist. No more broken promises. Urgent action must be taken. πŸ›ŸπŸŒŽ Will you be there? Can you spread the word? **Saturday 22nd June - Park Lane, London** restorenaturenow.com/

Got ten minutes to spare? What better use of your time than making sure @CheshireEast know you want a greener, safer, healthier #Macclesfield? And that in a #climate emergency with staggering #biodiversity loss action needs to start now? #netzerocheshire surveys.cheshireeast.gov.uk/…

Today we’ve sent this new guidance to charities & orgs in the environment sector. Fighting Fearlessly shows that, whilst there are some rules around campaigning during the election, orgs can still speak out in the run up to the election. Full report: wildjustice.org.uk/general/f… 1/4

Deadline is Friday. It's a #climateemergency, don't let politicians kick the can down the road. We need to take action now and focus on benefits for all in a just transition to a greener, safer #Macclesfield
We’ve developed a carbon neutrality action plan for 2024-29 and want your views on what we've identified that we need to do to become carbon neutral as a borough by 2045. Get involved here: Carbon Neutrality Action Plan Consultation (cheshireeast.gov.uk) It closes on Friday.

At the start of #NoMowMay, I implore that anyone undertaking this concept refrains from pulling out the mower in June, adopts a #NoMowSummer & avoids cutting everything off in its prime, including the wildlife. Here’s my latest video to explain whyπŸ‘‡πŸπŸ¦‹ youtu.be/iZRpX774ViI?si=kk1R…
