☀️ California gets their first solar-covered canal!

Placing panels over waterways generates clean energy while keeping the panels cooler, saves space compared to traditional solar farms, and reduces water loss from evaporation. There’s only a handful in the world so far - hopefully changing soon!

❌ Plans for a Neo-Nazi festival in Great Yarmouth, UK were CANCELLED after public pressure.

Over 34,000 people wrote to the Home Office to raise concerns after campaigning from anti-fascist organisation Hope Not Hate, resulting in the venue pulling out and the festival being cancelled.
