Uxbridge Road, Southall. My guess is this driver is also a cyclist. Either way, good safety perception. ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐

@NoFarmsNoFoods During the last year ony 7% of solar generation, majority during summer. When we need it most we get insufficient power generated. It's not worth the investment and land loss. Better to insulate!!

@BBC Scotland #Landward who thinks it’s trendy to dub music over people speaking. For people with hearing difficulties it’s annoying to say the least. Please desist!!

@NaturallyBirmi1 Everywhere I look around Minworth/Walmley it’s a monoculture of grass. Why can’t you just mow the edges instead of all of it. Mown grass is left in rotting lumps enriching soil thus wild flowers can’t thrive. Loads of shredded plastics too!!

@sandbaggie We really welcome everyone's story. All are interesting and valid and help us to advise those who care for, use, and manage parks and green spaces. Not everyone wants the same thing, but we are committed to nature recovery in Birmingham and are working towards this as best we can

Thank you @PrueLeith for speaking out against salmon farming. If only the Scottish government would listen to sense rather than Scandi billionaires who are behind these monstrosities

@BhamCityCouncil just this. You claim to be a nature loving city. Very little sign of this. Also mowing just before May - be back June 1st!!

Would it be too much to ask that SOME areas of grass are kept long throughout the summer @hertscc? I and many others appreciate that not all areas can be left, & sight lines at junctions are understandable etc, but areas that aren’t used for recreational sports, don’t cause any obstructions & don’t pose any safety risks for vehicles, would be a good place to start. Why not set yourselves apart this spring/summer and set a precedent in terms of a council that is managing its green spaces for wildlife. It will benefit local wildlife, cost you less in maintenance and look better when there’s more wildflowers flowering. Are you in? Happy to offer advice as to how you can achieve this. I’d rather work with councils than sit back and point the finger. Feel free to DM me 👍

Amen. Stop this shite. I visit wild places to get away from the visual influence of people, not to be reminded of it with stupid little piles of rocks.

Oh JFC. Just stop with the stone stacking please! It causes damage in a number of ways: google.co.uk/search?q=stone… I know I'm probably preaching to the choir here but it bears repeating. Whatever happened to leave no trace? #MondayRant #PeakDistrict

Ban Plastic Turf
Ban Plastic Turf@BanPlasticTurf·
9-yr-olds playing on plastic turf were found to have #PFAS on their skin. No federal agency has endorsed plastic turf as safe. Industry is trusted to self-regulate. Communities routinely fall for misleading industry claims & assume, INCORRECTLY, that if unsafe, it’d be illegal.
Pamela@Wetcheme

Did you know that school district staff and boards refuse to test the artificial turf they are buying because they think it’s not their job or the landscape architect says it’s PFAS free without proof? @AGRobBonta @RobertBilott @SHPFC @FieldExperts nbcsandiego.com/news/local/che…

@BanPlasticTurf Reading an article on PFAS in waterproof clothing being phased out. What's the point, they know they are toxic. God help my grand kids!!

Ban Plastic Turf
Ban Plastic Turf@BanPlasticTurf·
Plastic turf is exorbitantly expensive. For more than just the person, business, or public agency that owns it. For more than just those who recreate on it. For ALL of us! Vote down school bonds & electeds that support plastic fields! Urge your electeds to #BanPlasticGrass!

Laura Vandenberg@ElleEnvy

New analysis by @leotrasande shows how expensive our addiction to plastics really is when we consider the costs to health. Costs to the environment are ON TOP OF these costs. This just can't continue. (And these calculations are incredibly conservative.) @TheEndoSociety
