I want hospital beds.
Libraries reopening.
Trains that run on time.
Kids who aren't too hungry to learn.
Rivers that don't run with slurry.

How do we fix the NHS in Scotalnd? By tackling the social causes behind health inequalities
@MichaelMarmot here cites our own Closing the Gap report to set out how Scotland can create a better society

“I must say, in my professional life as a climate scientist, this is a low point. The window for 1.5C is shutting as I speak, so it’s really tough.” Important interview with @dpcarrington yesterday. We need to act now.

Is this the very definition of a paper park?
To see this kind of #biodiversityloss continue while government claims its marine management is 'world leading' is devastating.

Researchers who study Type 2 diabetes have reached a stark conclusion: There is no device or drug powerful enough to counter the effects of poverty, pollution, stress, a broken food system, cities that aren't walkable, and inequitable access to healthcare. nyti.ms/3SRkKZS
