The cooling effect of a single, young street tree is the same as 5 room-sized air conditioners operating 20 hours/day. If every London borough had delivered the 50% increase in street trees that I did as a Hackney Cllr, we may have prevented the U.K’s first 40C+ heatwave.

Extending my off-bike wardrobe. Can any female athletes recommend smart, stylish trousers (or jeans) that will work on a stoutly built person with pronounced glutes, & legs like Chris Hoy in his heyday? (Hoyday?) I aspire to look sleek & tailored, but not sure that’s possible! 😆
