Wow, look at this: the carbon intensity of UK electricity is currently only 32g/kWh and 86.5% of our electricity right now is coming from renewables.

Come on world, this IS possible!
And it will only get better (meaning: cleaner, healthier, less intrusive) 🎉

Italy have built a magnificent wall on their iconic land border with Turkey. I went to see it myself and it’s the finest wall I have ever seen. We simply must build a similar wall on the cliffs of Dover

btw you can check the website WikiShootMe for nearby landmarks that need freely-licensed photos, visit them, and then snap pics for Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons! it's so fun and the list of photoless destinations is endless. I chose this movie theater as an example bc it's where I first watched Cars
