🚨 BREAKING: New research shows rooftop solar can provide 60% of the solar energy we need. 🏠☀️
Solar on roofs is a no-brainer solution that protects valuable green spaces for nature, wildlife and farming. 🌱✅
If we don’t make use of our rooftops, solar panels could swallow up 180,000 hectares of our countryside – an area larger than the size of Greater London!
It's time for a #RooftopRevolution .

Come with us to the launch of our new report! 👀
Tonight we are at the #houseoflords for the launch of our new report on the impact of the rural housing crisis and how the government can fix it.
Everyone should have the right to an affordable, healthy home. 🏠
But our new research shows that severe lack of affordable and social housing in the countryside is threatening the survival of rural communities. ⚠️
We’re calling on the government to deliver new, genuinely affordable and social housing as well as curb the boom of second homes and short term lets.
Head to our website now to read the report in full - link in bio! 🔗

Did you know there are around half a million miles of hedgerows in the UK and 40% are thought to be ancient? 💚
Hedgerows act as borders between fields, roads and other boundaries to us, they provide food and shelter for many species. 🦔
In July, many will be decorated with bramble flowers. If you walk slowly and quietly alongside hedgerows, you might get to see rare birds, beautiful wildflowers, or ancient trees. 🌳
And you will certainly gain an appreciation for how unique and special our hedgerows really are! 😍

Today's announcement on housebuilding is a promising sign that the government is listening. 👏
We urgently need more of the right homes in the right places to protect our countryside. 🏠 ✅
But it's not just about building 'an urban quarter' in Cambridge. There are towns and cities across the country in urgent need of regeneration.
Plus, our recent research shows that there are brownfield sites still lying dormant across the midlands and the north. 👀

Did you know that the Anglo-Saxons called July ‘Meadmonath’, meaning ‘meadow month’?
At this time of year, the meadows in our countryside are alive with wildflowers and insects. 🌼😍
But over the years, we’ve lost a staggering 97% of our meadows. ⚠️
Thankfully though, community efforts are taking place to create new ones and save those that remain at risk. 💚

NEW: We’re one of 139 orgs that have written to Keir Starmer in support of Labour’s world-leading pledge to end new oil and gas projects. 🙅
In the midst of an energy affordability crisis and global climate breakdown, we welcome the position to ban new oil and gas projects. ❌
These crises can only be overcome by shifting away from oil and gas and mass investment in renewables and energy efficiency.
This is what climate leadership should look like. ✅
Labour must now move forward and outline a clear path to support workers transition from fossil fuels to good, green jobs. 💚
