You can actually make cities beautiful again. This is the city of Poznań in Poland:

This chart might look political, but it’s really about data science. The UK can rank great or poorly depending on the KPIs you choose. Our choice of data decides how we view reality.

WE'RE NEARLY THERE! Our target is within reach as we raise money to help replant our #QuietGarden. So grateful to all who have donated so far. If you can help, please donate at Justgiving → justgiving.com/campaign/quiet… quietgardens

Amid all the negative shouting online it's easy to think that people concerned about nature are few and far between. Then you read this ⤵️ #ilovecroydon #bringbackbeavers news.croydon.gov.uk/96-of-resident…

Ever wondered what @NaturalEngland does? I was pleased to record this podcast with the Civil Service Climate & Environment Network, answering questions about our work, why we do it & the context. open.spotify.com/episode/4JcuEy…

Hello @StPaulsLondon! Great drone footage during our on-going restoration work. Thanks to @HeritageFundUK, the City Churches Grants Committee and our congregation for their support.

A two-megawatt turbine pays back its build energy and emissions in 6-12 months, then runs clean for the next 25+ years. The fossil fuel industry doesn’t own the sun and the air. That’s why they’ve spent billions electing puppets to attack and delay the renewable revolution.

🔥 Farage roasted again by 🇺🇸 Rep Jamie Raskin “This is the guy that delivered Brexit to the UK. How he shows his face in public after that debacle is beyond …Isn’t that considered a disaster in the history of England? I cannot imagine a society that produced some of the greatest writers, poets and musicians… falling for a free speech imposter and charlatan like that.” Absolutely 💯

Ed Miliband gets relentless bile from the right for his ‘ideological’ commitment to clean, cheap renewable energy - just as Nye Bevan once did for creating the NHS. Yet on March 25 97.7 % of our electricity was from renewables. A revolution is unfolding. observer.co.uk/news/columnist…

This woman once described me as ‘reckless and irresponsible’ . . . errr . . .

@SuellaBraverman Idiot.

Global warming?!? Just over a week to go until Easter and we need to get our big coats back out! I wouldn’t mind a bit more global warming to be honest, right now.

Sometimes there is too much wind for our outdated grid to handle, especially in Scotland and the East of England. Rather than paying wind farms to switch off we’re trialling a new system where people who live near these constrained areas get cheaper - or even free - electricity.

A drive into Croydon

There's a pavement near me which the tree roots have seriously raised up. One has to step over it. Many councils would consider chopping the tree down. Instead, why not fill the area with bountiful planting and create a pavement bypass. More function and more beauty.

Brexit has likely done more economic damage than feared. Recent evidence suggests the economic cost of Brexit may be approaching twice the 4% impact assumed by the OBR. The Chancellor has signalled a shift in approach to EU trade, but the effect will depend on how far the govt goes on alignement.

Gas only sets Spain's electricity price 15% of the time. When gas costs spike it barely registers on the electricity bill. In countries like Italy and the UK gas sets the price 90% of the time. The difference is enormous. I spoke to @politico about this. politico.eu/article/spain-…

📢CAMPAIGN LAUNCH – Help us restore the Quiet Garden at St Bride's🌿 After essential building works, parts of our #quietgarden sanctuary need replanting. Every gift helps this green City oasis flourish again for all who visit. justgiving.com/campaign/quiet…

@Rachel_mosley17 I remember the day. Much love.

The thing about grief and love is that it never really goes away does it? I guess we learn to deal with it but sometimes it still hits you like a train. 28 years ago today we lost my wonderful dad and I really miss him ….
