@ChrisMayLA6 @johnrentoul Intriguing. #GND #Norwich and Norwich #FriendsOfTheEarth have been actively leading the Norwich Campaign for Warm Homes and have focused their efforts in NR3 which coincidentally includes Chloe Smithās #NorwichNorth constituencyā¦seems it must have struck a chord.

"Friends of the Earth confirms legal challenge against UK coal mine approval" <<-- headline from Business Green.
"By giving the go-ahead to this polluting and totally unnecessary coal mine the government has not only made the wrong decision for our economy and the climate, we believe it has also acted unlawfully," said Niall Toru, lawyer at Friends of the Earth.
Too right. Thank you, #FriendsOfTheEarth

Great to see our #CumbrianCoalMine protest making the national press today:
āIf the government wants to support a modern UK steel industry it should help it be competitive by going green, not champion a climate-wrecking coal mine the industry neither wants nor needs.ā ~ @TonyBosworth from #FriendsOfTheEarth

Just back from the #CumbrianCoalMine protest in #Whitehaven. Spoke to many folk and discovered thereās more common ground than we might think.
Iām sure some cracks have been healed today between those for and against the coalmine ā not least as locals seem to want *jobs* more than the coalmine itself.
All-in-all, empowering and thought-provoking.
Iāve made sound recordings too, which Iāll share soonā¦stay tuned!

"Birmingham has by far the most communities that urgently need help to cope with hotter weather, according to analysis from Manchester University and campaigners Friends of the Earth (FoE)."
"The city's followed by the London boroughs of Newham, Tower Hamlets and Hackney - with Nottingham also making the list."
