If you have a business in the middle of a town (aka not an offgrid house in the countryside) how easy/expensive/possible is it to make it run off renewable energy so you don't have to be a pawn to the horrific business energy providers? #RenewableEnergy #SmallBusiness

Yes! Finally a viable caring alternative to buying e-books on Amazon!

I’d just like to acknowledge HOW important meeting in real life is. It feels like a drug I’ve forgotten to take for a while and it’s making me better. Meeting in real life with wonderful, kind, friendly, trying to make a better world people! Thank you #KendalMountainFestival & #UKCharityCamp

National parks have huge potential and with proper funding can achieve so much for nature restoration, climate change, mental health and more… nationalparksengland.org.uk/news/why-we-...

England’s national parks face a 12% real-terms cut to their budget which would lead to mass redundancies of wardens and the closure of visitor centres and other facilities, park leaders have warned. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Another incredible book from Elif Shafak. Such magical story telling with so many facts and truths and lessons. Beautiful and heartbreaking.

Saw this on Rajeeb Day’s LinkedIn and couldn’t agree more. Sometimes going against the grain isn’t crazy or weird or stupid but exactly what the world needs.

I said it wouldn’t all be my dog, but it’s a snow day here on the edge of the Peak District so I couldn’t resist!

Oh hey gang! This place is already feeling so positive compared to ‘other’ places. Promise it won’t all be my dog on here, there will be more informative things about national parks, climate change, glamping, books and supporting local! Maybe a few rants about billionaires thrown in too!?
