I think it’s great that ENDS Report are including politicians on this year’s Power List.

We need to applaud those politicians that are being environmental leaders.

Now, more than ever, we need to make our environment - our life support system - a voting issue. 💪🏻🌍

UK is now one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. It is a national crisis - and neither the Tories nor Labour have a plan to address it. So tomorrow I'll be leading a debate in Parliament on UK biodiversity loss - please encourage your MP to take part.

Wow, it is absolutely crazy to have made this list! Seeing my name and face alongside inspirational political leaders including Zac Goldsmith and Caroline Lucas. It's nice to represent younger Midlands female champions. Thank you, ENDS Report.

Despite years of dedicated, unpaid work and deep expertise on the sewage crisis, it's disheartening to be excluded from the festival's panels. This reflects classism and favoritism within the movement sidelining those from working-class, northern backgrounds. #EndSewagePollution

I joined Cafe Hope for tea on Radio 4 today to talk about being a lawyer for nature, community river care & the idea that the protection & restoration of nature in the UK needs a groundswell of ordinary people to become guardians of nature:

This line hit me like a punch to the stomach: 'The more precious nature seems and the louder people get'.

The more nature was at risk on my doorstep, the louder we got. And it impelled an entirely new political landscape - one I am proud to be part of.

Half the oxygen we breathe comes from tiny phytoplankton in the ocean.

Every day is #EarthDay

The radical roots of the first #EarthDay in 1970 are often forgotten.

Inspired by the anti-vietnam war student sit-ins 20 million Americans took part!

It led to the:
- Clean Air Act
- Clean Water Act
- Endangered species Act
- & the EPA

People power works ✊️🌍
#EarthDay 2024
