Hard hitting words from Chris Packham to politicians and leaders at the National Emergency Briefing on climate and nature:
"You MUST listen to the science. We didn't just elect you. We've given you our trust. You are about to hear from leading scientists. I beseach you to hear their truth"

Travel has a huge climate impact but driving isn't the only way to explore the outdoors.
I recently had a running holiday in Assynt, the remote north west of Scotland, traveling from Cardiff by train and bus.
Required good planning and researching local services (very grateful for 'Dial-a-bus'!)
