The Thames now has a “wet wipe island." It's so big that it is diverting the river! Wet wipes contain plastic and don't degrade, which is why they also block sewers and drains. Please stop flushing wet wipes!

I’m at #WorldOceansDay to deliver a clear message to world leaders about the impact of +1.5°C on our oceans. The effects are unthinkable and we cannot ignore this crisis for any longer.

The science is that at 1.5°C warming, 70% of coral reefs disappear. At 2°C warming, 99% of coral reefs disappear.
It's now up to all of us to do everything we can to avoid these awful scenarios.

Thank you Tom. With everything else happening in the world right now, I believe that potentially losing 99% of all coral reefs in our lifetime is a story that deserves all the attention we can give it. 🙏

A true underdog story: This sea turtle successfully evaded the jaws of a tiger shark.
Photographer Declan DeHaas captured the stunning overhead footage off the coast of Western Australia and confirmed the turtle ultimately made it to shore safely. Nature is awesome.

If we act together, the renewable energy transformation can be the peace project of the 21st century.
Every country, city and citizen, every financial institution, company and civil society organization has a role to play.
The only sustainable future is a renewable one.

Biodiversity used to be about abundance. Now it is about loss. We need to take a step back and realise just what we are doing to the animal kingdom. #BiodiversityDay

If everyone lived like the UK, the global #EarthOvershootDay would be today, and we would need 2.6 earths to sustainably cover our resource needs.
When is your country's Overshoot Day? 🌎🌍🌏
