We need more hedgerows in our towns and cities, as well as in rural areas: they are vital for urban wildlife, reducing air and noise pollution, and delivering #AMoreNaturalCapital.

Quick visit to ⁦@Tate⁩ yesterday with ⁦@UrbanTreeFest⁩ colleagues to see homage to Joseph Beuys’ 7000 oaks project: such an inspiration for us all and almost 40 years on more important now than ever before.

Yesterday’s floods are a warning: we need greater investment in #SustainableUrbanDrainage schemes (SUDS) for #AMoreNaturalCapital

Peckham Green Save It @peckham_green·

We took Peckham Green for granted. Why wouldn't we? You don't build on parks. Well... @lb_southwark builds on parks. **Occupy the Green, July 31 2021, 1pm Saturday, to reclaim our rights to our public park. @PeckhamLife

Hard to believe. ⬇️ Join @SaveBell and write to Southwark Council to say why you think this site should not be built on...

Please join local campaigners on 31 July 2021 trying to save this incredibly important park from being built over in its entirety. It's in an area deficient in open space and with major nearby housing development will be even more deficient, per head, in the near future ⬇️🌳🍀

Peckham Green Save It @peckham_green·

Yesterday's planning meeting. OCCUPY PECKHAM GREEN event - 31 July Saturday. @lb_southwark is building on parks and greenspaces in politically weak communities in a #climatecrisis, used by estate residents, on 2nd most polluted road in the Borough. @MarcusRashford @catholicEW

@helendennis80 This is Peckham Green, also called Jocelyn Street Park (or Flaxyards by LBS) SE15 5QW. It has been a park for over 20 years. 1.4 acres next to a school. Please do not destroy it.

Our local school @FoxPrimary has been trialling a small section of #schoolstreet in Edge St and the sight of children squealing and running towards the school gates is phenomenal.

Enfield RoadWatch @Save_Green_Belt·

Enfield Council’s Draft Local Plan is deeply flawed not ‘deeply green’. Enfield Council has made the decision to build on the Green Belt and is presenting its plan as the only solution to meeting it’s housing needs. THIS IS NOT TRUE. The Local Plan Consultation is now live.

Street tree and rainwater garden build-outs that eliminate parking spaces.

Tough on extreme weather events; tough on the causes of extreme weather events.

We really need a better system to bring such ideas to life, for community to have opportunity to bring them to the table + discuss/ shape/ change & have a way to implement or trial….
