It’s clear that the Tories and their right-wing press allies are becoming increasingly desperate as the election approaches – hence today’s bizarre attack on Lambeth council for being a progressive borough that prioritises action on tackling the climate crisis. 1/3

For weeks we've been patiently waiting for vandalised signs to be replaced and planters to have, well, plants in them. Can we have our LTN soon please @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury @clairekholland ?

July has already seen: The hottest three-week period ever recorded. The three hottest days on record. The highest-ever ocean temperatures for this time of year. It is still possible to avoid the very worst of climate change, but only with dramatic, immediate #ClimateAction.

Fentiman Road in Lambeth's Oval LTN has been absolutely transformed. New planting & SUDS, seating, bike parking. Looks fantastic. Great work @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury @clairekholland

I'm very frustrated that global leaders are still not giving the climate emergency the action and investment it requires. Words are not enough. Without #ClimateAction, climate catastrophe is coming for all of us.

Best bit of my journey was Claylands road. Love @SaveOvalStreets. Thanks for the relaxing cruise through your neighbourhood.
Archive photos of criminal damage to @TulseHillLTN illustrating this great piece by @GeorgeMonbiot on the way #LTNs liberate our streets & neighbourhoods Spoiler alert: in much of Lambeth #activetravel is winning. Still a lot more to do here & elsewhere theguardian.com/commentisfre…

“We are sleepwalking to climate catastrophe,” U.N. Secretary General António Guterres warned Monday. “If we continue with more of the same, we can kiss 1.5 goodbye. Even 2 degrees may be out of reach. And that would be catastrophe.” nyti.ms/3iD9wba

Addiction to fossil fuels is mutually assured destruction. We need to fix the broken global energy mix. Instead of hitting the brakes on the decarbonization of the global economy, now is the time to race towards a renewable energy future.

Lovely thread on LTNs - please read to the end
A short photo THREAD dedicated to the councils that removed their LTNs & @lambeth_council for keeping ours, sketching what they mean for people... (P.S. check out the finale 😉)
