👑 Did the #KingsSpeech fail on food?
Despite huge concern about food security and rising prices, food policy barely featured - @schetanw of @GreenAllianceUK gives his take in our latest podcast.

#GoodFoodBill
My first blog for @GreenAllianceUK! The shift to healthier & more sustainable diets would reduce vulnerability to external shocks, incl. geopolitics & climate change. Govt should seize the opportunity via a Good Food Bill.

Fantastic to work with the amazing @Food_Foundation and @UKSustain on delivering the Parliamentary launch of a Good Food Bill. A packed house, great speakers & a clear message- healthier food is a national security issue.

It's a shame that this is the highest ambition currently on the table, but a huge bravo to the PSIDS, who bear some of the worst impacts of endless plastic production, for showing such leadership & proposing a global reduction target. Now let's see who else gets on board👀

next week the world is supposed to finalise a treaty to tackle plastic pollution
so @EmmaEHoward and looked into the oil and chemical industry's alliance to 'end plastic waste' and found a PR & lobbying strategy — and 132 million tonnes of virgin plastic

With a few weeks to #PlasticsTreaty #INC5, Moderator Sam Chetan-Welsh of @Greenpeace shows that with Member States having expressed interests for businesses that will be impacted by the treaty to be involved, the initiative provides an economic case of plastic reduction control.
