Pomozite nam da i mi iskačemo iz frižidera! Ukoliko ste vi napravili izbor, nisu svi. Dok su mediji mahom zatvoreni ka nama, ljudi nisu, a ljudi su naša najveća snaga! Pozivamo sve koji su uz nas, da nas sada podrže i javno. Podrška je važna! (i stvarno nam mnogo znači)

We've been following the journey as the Queen's Baton Relay moves around the Commonwealth. Last week it was on the tiny island of St Helena, where student Amy is working on an important project to explore why trees are dying on the island #QBR2022 #GameChangingBirmingham

Who owns our carbon? - 124 landowners own 60% of England's deep peat (c1m acres) whoownsengland.org/2021/11/1… - 1000 landowners own a third of England's woods (also c1m acres): whoownsengland.org/2020/11/0… Public & Govt must pressure landowners to protect & restore these carbon sinks
