Can't be long before politicians start talking behind their hands like footballers...
Honestly, seeing this makes me happy. All over the world there is so much anger, violence & toxic behaviour between politicians. I prefer a world where we can disagree, but still treat each other with respect. 🤝

Another really important addition. When linked to Newport Road will allow tens of thousands more people access to the city centre in a safe, fast, healthy and clean way.
📣 Construction work has begun on the first phase of Cardiff’s Roath Park cycleway. As well as delivering a new cycleway around Roath Park Recreational Ground, the work will see improvements to footways, highway junctions, and bus travel 🧵

Really important message for new and younger cyclists - hugging the left side is usually the least safe space.

Really enjoyed meeting students from @cardiffmet to work with them on climate change solutions for Cardiff and beyond. Cardiff has links across the globe - and we need people with ideas and energy to make change happen here and abroad.

Really important fundraiser this Sunday at @Grange_Pavilion organised by @GPYouthForum @ShorukNekeb and team. These events feel very real and close to home for many people in Cardiff.

Really pleased to see this come to Riverside.
We’ve helped makers, creators and creative start-ups working out of studios which are earmarked for development as part of the regeneration of Dumballs Road in #Cardiff secure a new temporary home. Find out more here: orlo.uk/G1wwF

So proud that kids in Riverside are getting a new school of this quality
It’s the end of an era as pupils at @FitzalanHigh spend their last day of term in the old school building. The new £64m school in Leckwith opens in September & final preparations are being made for the move. You can see that the swimming pool is ready to make a splash! #TeamFitz

Fascinating 'Sankey' energy diagram for Cardiff. The left shows energy sources. The right is final energy demand. (GWh per year - sources: BEIS/EPC)

It shows the massive challenge to get to #netzero We demand so much of our overall energy through fuel vehicles and gas boilers - both of which use fossil fuels. On the positive side - electricity supply is being provided more and more by renewable sources.

Sam is absolutely right. Wales has the ability and values to work together collectively much more closely than most other nations. (With some impressive leadership shown by our government, it has to be said) Thanks for all your energy and insight.
A week of back-to-back events, everywhere we went there were inspiring people taking action for climate & nature. Many of them felt alone, but I wish they could all see what I just experienced - so many good people, all over Wales, that care deeply about our future ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🌳
