TIME FOR COLLECTIVE ACTION: SIGN THE MANIFESTO 🌏 📝 💚 🇪🇺 Citizen-led initiatives that aim to improve people’s lives while respecting nature’s limits are rapidly growing in Europe. Over 2 million Europeans are already engaged in the energy transition alone, not to mention urban gardens, community-supported agriculture, exchange systems like car-sharing, time banks & many other diverse initiatives. Politicians often overlook the crucial role of these collective, citizen-driven actions. Sign the Time for Collective Action Manifesto and show policy makers that you demand urgent action for people and the planet: a strong, ambitious and localised European Green Deal with communities at the heart. https://lnkd.in/e-5KYBMN

Nobody ever talks about communications at climate tech events. Or, better said, nobody ever uses the word communications. Everybody talks about collaboration, partnering and “connecting the dots”. This is how Yewande Akinola MBE FIET HonFREng put it, who led through last week’s Undaunted: Tackling climate change with innovation event, which brought together excellent speakers and exhibitors. It was my favourite event during this year’s London Climate Action Week. • Connecting the dots is what communications does. • Having a written value proposition and company key messages about your technology, business, market and vision is essential. • Knowing where and how to communicate is business-critical. • Your success depends on so much. Don’t let mediocre communications let you down. #LCAW2024 #mondaymorning #climatetech Photo of me at the Royal Institution, kindly taken by Radiant Matter’s Elissa Brunato.

It’s amazing technology emulating what peacock feathers do!

Let's come together to mark #EarthDay 2024! This year's theme, #PlanetVsPlastics, calls for decisive action to safeguard the #environment. Canada will welcome the world in #Ottawa for the fourth session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (#INC4), where we are collaborating with various stakeholders, including our #Indigenous partners, to achieve a global agreement to #BeatPlasticPollution. Addressing #PlasticPollution and improving the way we design, produce, and use #plastics can strengthen economies, drive job growth, combat #ClimateChange, and safeguard #biodiversity.

World Environment Day - anyone care to guess when this was established? Incredibly, it dates back to 1973 when the first event took place in Switzerland. This link provides a very interesting summary of past themes : #worldenvironmentday2024
