We went to Paris to launch a fake brand campaign for the bank Société Générale.
Société Générale said they’d stop funding coal.
But instead underwrote a $409 million a bond to the world’s largest private coal company (through one of their subsidiaries).

Looked up Barry Bucknell, who popularised hiding of Victorian decoration with hardboard, and I discovered that he designed the Mirror sailing dinghy. Here he is with a Mirror on a Mini. Thought you might enjoy this @lordscroley.bsky.social. #MiniMoments

Have you ever seen a bike lane sweeper - pulled behind a bike?
Volunteers in Kirkland have a new tool that attaches to the back of an e-bike. It's good for protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and narrow trails.

We've been told that there's a lot of opposition to the trial measures in Kings Road, Tudor Road and Crescent Road. Probably the most anger has been at the Crescent Road change. Kings Rd and Tudor Rd are not permanent changes - still only trials. Survey: www.kingstonletstalk.co.uk/highways-and...

It’s honestly disheartening to see a third runway at Heathrow pushed forward when we desperately need less aviation. Communities, climate scientists, and campaigners keep raising the alarm, and decisions like this show just how much work there’s still to do. #Climate www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Heathrow's plan for longer third runway chosen by government
Under the selected plan, the runway would be up to 3.5km long and require a new road tunnel under the airport.

It was raining, so I was very excited travelling to Newbury Park Underground station.
Outside the entrance is a Grade II listed bus shelter, designed by Oliver Hill in 1937 but built after the war
I knew a puddle shot would look good here, so I took a shot as the 66 bus arrived
