@SarahWoodberryD This links to 2018 information. The current info is at hackney.gov.uk/christmas-trees which includes that Christmas trees will only be collected from addresses subscribed to garden waste collection. I hope this doesn’t lead to more car journeys - please share collection

@rachelburden @bbc5live Please don’t buy another hot water bottle to incinerate in 2 years - please try reusable heat pads that are heated in microwave and won’t cause burns

While we're talking about incinerating plastic waste on @bbc5live breakfast this morning....

@StokeyUpdates @clissoldpeople Sadly these recycling Eurobins no longer there when I went through the park yesterday evening - @hackneycouncil please provide more recycling eurobins so all recyclables can be collected for recycling rather than incinerated

It’s good to see recycling bins in Clissold Park. I had assumed the council gave up on them after an update in a @clissoldpeople public meeting a while ago, mentioning too much regular rubbish was being dumped into them, making recycling impossible.

@clissoldpeople Hi, virtual meeting says its ending in couple of minutes but physical meeting is having a break without letting virtual attendees know how they can attend second part of meeting - please advise

Reminder for our AGM on Saturday at 10.30am at Clissold House with guest speaker local author Hugh Todd who will talk about and read from his book: ‘It Happened in Clissold Park’ troubador.co.uk/.../it-happene…. Agenda and dial in details can be found here: mailchi.mp/548fc24c79de/w…

@clissoldpeople Please in future use inclusion best practice of putting physical venue and virtual link together at start of meeting details

@SarahMKissack Link above Sarah

@clissoldpeople Ah right at the bottom rather than with venue, thanks

@StokeyUpdates @clissoldpeople At last recognising improved sorting technology as well as demand - vast majority of what went into the general waste bins was recyclable

@MPSStokeNewton @bikeregister Thanks - hopefully see you then

@MPSStokeNewton When will next session be? Knowing accurate time well in advance will help plan around otger commitments, thanks

@MPSStokeNewton @bikeregister Hi, I saw original message this morning before work and made special trip to get bike security marked, only to find they’d finished early - disappointing. Please provide accurate information in advance

Forming up for our march, remembering when trade union rights were removed, reinstated and now once again threatened.

@clissoldpeople @carowoodley Happy new year! Please could dates of CPUG meetings for 2024 be shared, thanks

CPUG meeting dates for rest of 2023: - Saturday 24 June, 11am in the Drawing Room, Clissold House - Saturday 15 July, our AGM, 11am, Church View Room at Clissold House where we will be joined by @carowoodley - Saturday 14 October, 11am, Church View Room at Clissold House

@metecoban92 @stokeyenergy @HackneyEmpire @mayorofhackney Great. Hope some of the output will be used to power dishwasher to stop single use plastic cups at the bar

Exciting moment to see @StokeyEnergy powering up the iconic @HackneyEmpire with 102 solar panels. This is part of many projects Hackney Light and Power’s Community Energy Fund is helping support to reduce energy bills and tackle the climate crisis @mayorofhackney ⚡️🌍

@MarkSharon_DP @jonburkeUK Putting wash on, hanging out to dry and putting away all lovely, but ironing is inconsiderate waste of the world’s resources

@jonburkeUK You haven't been married long? The most romantic thing to do is iron it. Most women look at a pile of just done washing and groan.

Going to put a load of washing on while my wife is at work, which as any long-married man will have been informed is one of the most romantic things you can do.

@NLHPP @connectNLWA Depends on feedstock and carbon intensity of energy displaced e.g. burning plastic more harmful than burying it, burning biodegradable material more harmful than anaerobically digesting it

@SarahMKissack @connectNLWA Even without CCS, the ERF is a better option for the environment than landfill. We intend to install CCS by the 2030s which will make the facility carbon negative. northlondonheatandpower.london/news/nlwa-take…

NLHPP is #PartOfTheSolution. It's a major part of @connectNLWA's actions to tackle the Climate Emergency. And it's providing jobs for local people to #BuildYourFuture. Find out more: bit.ly/3CMaWZY

@NLHPP Why not pre-sorting, composting and anaerobic digestion too?

@SarahMKissack That’s why we’ve built a state-of-the-art Resource Recovery Facility and a Reuse and Recycling centre, due to start operating next year. At £100M, it’s the biggest investment in London’s recycling facilities in decades. northlondonheatandpower.london/faqs/about-the…

Is there an alternative to the ERF? A perfect solution would be for us all to stop producing waste altogether. But for that to happen, we need central government reforms. An ERF is the next best solution 👏 Find out more: bit.ly/3KjPDBU

@vickihird Thanks - is that their parent with them?! Hurrah for biodiversity!

@SarahMKissack What you have are young Southern Green Shield beetle - possibly 3rd instar - beautiful and i agree with the RHS that they are "part of the biodiversity a healthy garden can support and control measures are not required" Ive seen lots lately

Hackney Allotment Society AGM notice reminded me what a great talk you gave last year thanks @vickihird and wonder if you could offer any advice on these new-to-me visitors to my runner beans
