Fulfilment of a long-time dream - to appear on the #WalesCast pod!!! This was to talk about the recent flooding in #monmouth and wider flood impact reduction.

A pleasure to talk to the BBC Wales #WalesCast pod today 🎤 The topic was flooding - the recent distressing scenes from Monmouth demonstrate the need and urgency of reducing the impact of flooding in future.

Luckily 💡 @nicw published a report, led by Dr Eurgain […]

I've arrived for my first day as Head of Climate Action at Cardiff Metropolitan University.

Here's some of my thoughts about it 👉️ https://clubb.cymru/2025/11/03/new-start-cardiff-met/

I hope the newly-renamed 'Walk Wheel Cycle Trust' can come up with a better Welsh name than 'Walk Wheel Cycle Trust yng Nghymru'.

I guess that was absent from the discussions when the rebrand of #sustrans took place 🤷

I *think* I'm the first person to be following #ambient on #bandwagon. But maybe the first one on my home server?

Anyway, very interesting functionality 💡

They've only gone and made me a Fellow of the ICE...

An opportunity to promote the profession, but also to point out where they have made the occasional glaring omission 🤔

Shame to see #plaidcymru campaigning on keeping costs low for using cars. Their environmental approach is highly inconsistent.

We should be incentivising public transport and active travel, including by reducing subsidies to car users

It's easy to demonise young people, but on my train to #Aberdâr this evening two separate groups of girls asked my 7yo if they were ok (I was the other end of the carriage with my bike)

Someone in my household thinks they can cut slices of bread straight.

I beg to differ
