I am launching a new social enterprise seeking to celebrate the wonders of waste by creating high-quality gardening products from things that would usually be discarded. You can read the story behind the idea here www.circularonline.co.uk/case-studies...

I created Sizzle to make it easier for people to take choices that are good for them and the environment. To help gardeners shift from peat to more sustainable alternatives we are seeking to change legislation, improve communications and provide a Wonderfuel new product. mailchi.mp/78caf9d20800...

A circular economy for organic waste is a key opportunity for the UK to promote growth and food security. Delighted that a former Labour Minister has seen the value in the policy requests pulled together by our Enrich the Earth initiative. www.politics.co.uk/comment/2025...

British farmers are reliant on expensive unsustainable fertilisers whilst we undervalue waste materials that could be viable alternatives. A new coalition is calling on Govt to help food growers access high quality affordable compost. enrichtheearth.co.uk/changing-pol...

At Anthropy25, over 2,000 leaders will come together to discuss the vision for a brighter Britain in 30 years time and how we might get there. I am excited to be going. Join me from 26-28 March at The Eden Project in Cornwall. anthropy.uk/national-gat... @anthropyuk.bsky.social

We have to design houses to face future threats from wildfires to flood. Hear how these designers used recycled fireproof cladding, sprinklers and a green roof which helped it survive the Palisade fire www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

I created my new organisation to deliver long-term systemic change. Our first initiative has been independently evaluated. Was it a success or failure, what has we learned, what are the implications for others and what do we plan next? Here are our reflections www.sizzle.org.uk/our-experime...

Greenland once again telling Trump it is not for sale is a great excuse to repost this brilliant use of the ballot bin the concept of which I helped to create www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What is your word of the year? 'Brain Rot' has been chosen by the Oxford Dictionaries as their word of the year, but what is the one that you have heard most in a work context? Here is mine. www.sizzle.org.uk/our-thoughts...

Is the 'super grid' an idea whose time has come? One company believes that renewable energy from Morocco is the answer to supplying the UK with reliable and sustainable energy. Pipe dream or brilliant? www.sizzle.org.uk/our-thoughts...

Failure of Global Plastics Treaty talks are deeply unsurprising, but it does present a fascinating question as to where they go next. Would a 'treaty of the willing' be helpful or is an agreement pretty useless if you have big free riders? www.businessgreen.com/news/4384233...

This excellent documentary reveals how the Jet Zero plans are completely flimsy built on over optimistic plans and dubious offsets Surely it is time for a frequent flyer levy to suppress demand www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Going to an event tomorrow where the dress code is from ‘Monday to Thursday men should wear a jacket and tie whilst women should dress conventionally with no trainer shoes’ Begs the question what can people wear the rest of the week and what is ‘conventional’.

Given recent political events, the shocking floods in Spain and the publication of several depressing reports, our bulletin asks where we can find rays of hope, what radical leadership might look like and how best to respond as an individual. mailchi.mp/2fb5eeb113d8...

Like many others I have said farewell to 10k twitter followers to start again. I will share thoughts on all things environmental & social from the perspective of founding three fairly successful social enterprises. I hope this adds richness to what already feels like a warm & receptive community.

A ground-breaking report reveals that humanity could share a prosperous & equitable future but the chances are rapidly diminishing due to pressure from a wealthy minority of ultra-consumers. Is anyone brave enough to introduce the radical polices required? www.sizzle.org.uk/our-thoughts...

It can be challenging to remain optimistic, but rays of hope can be found in the amazing array of community initiatives led by passionate and dedicated people. This hugely under-resourced sector is crying out for more resources. www.sizzle.org.uk/our-thoughts...
