Just ridiculous to destroy millions of trees that soak up #carbon, & take decades to be regrown. Wood pellets emit 150% more emissions than coal per kw generated. If carbon capture at the stack is feasible, then burn #coal, not #wood. apple.news/Ah9yLvu0XQ_G4ASsK…

The Chancellor has not committed to any new funding for active travel. Research shows that at least £6bn is needed to meet the Government’s targets of doubling #cycling and increasing #walking by 2025 - our response to #Budget2020sustrans.org.uk/our-blog/new…
No matter the investment in #cycling in #London, if you can't park at work, you're unlikely to cycle there. In @TfL's 5 office buildings 93.5% of occupants cannot cycle to work; as they can't park. Hypocritical? @RoryStewartUK@ShaunBaileyUK @SiobhanBenita @sianberry@SadiqKhan
The government and NHS are well prepared to deal with #coronavirus.
You can help too.
Here's our guidance on best practice hygiene and specific advice for individuals returning from certain areas 🔽
€595 million is invested annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in just public health care costs alone. How smart governments do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath#Dutch
It has been revealed today that, to make space for cyclists, Paris mayor @Anne_Hidalgo will remove 72% of the French capital's on-street car parking spaces. 60,000 spaces to be eliminated. Updated article: forbes.com/sites/carltonreid…
Cavendish Sq underground car park has an application for a commercial & retail development, providing little cycle parking. This is a unique opportunity to provide a significant cycle hub, that's compliant with the Mayor's Transport Strategy. @willnorman@CarolineRussell
Amazing for #Paris. The lack of progress and ambition in #London is infuriating. Taken nearly 4 years to provide a draft plan for London that is bland relative to Paris.
Absolutely. Cycle infra offers huge return on capital, improving health and reducing the burden on the health system. And what’s #London doing?! No @MayorofLondon can make real progress until they control the majority of roads.
