No amount of dredging and land management is going to stop the deluge that we face due to 'locked in' #climatechange

The Council declare a climate emergency but the evidence suggests it's just rhetoric (see @ClimateEmergMcr)

E.g. the continued infatuation w/ skyscrapers is such an outdated way of thinking about what makes a 'successful city' + v. unsustainable

Final online event to discuss #Chorlton to Manchester walking & cycling route is tomorrow evening (Wednesday 20th) at 6.30pm. Email chorltoncyclescheme@manchester.gov.uk for joining details. All welcome. #HaveYourSay. For a safe, green, healthy, inclusive Chorlton & Manchester https://twitter.com/evefrancisholt/status/1334194933469765633

The #ChorltonCycleway is much more than a cycleway. It means safer streets, cleaner air, greener public realm & better pavements. Great to see latest plans go live today for central #Chorlton, area 3. Have your say via the @ManCityCouncil consultation >> https://secure.manchester.gov.uk/info/200024/consultations_and_surveys/8077/manchester_to_chorlton_cycleway_area_3_consultation?fbclid=IwAR1l4QIW8UCq5PWbzuLVmqgNL06q2qNz-rI2ziX-yqdMOfD8DbD5GEpQfeQ
