We need to face our planetary crisis head on. To simply sustain is not enough. Will you #JoinTheRegeneration? bit.ly/2ZXtebA
The truth about #COP26Glasgow from the wonderful @NicolaSturgeon …not a whole lot of change happening. Are there facilitated sessions where someone makes sure shit happens, contracts are signed and people are held accountable for their rhetoric?
As Glasgow plays host to the COP 26 summit, Scottish First Minister @NicolaSturgeon told me earlier today that she is “really concerned” that crucial global climate goals will not be reached.
"I think there is a genuine gap between the rhetoric and delivery,”
