Climate warning

Recent budget cuts to active travel in England are raising red flags 🚨

A recent report shows a 65% cut in funds for walking and cycling by the Department for Transport (DfT), which concerns people and environmental advocates that these cuts could break progress toward achieving climate goals. These cuts are rushed, without thinking about their effect on emissions goals.
HM Treasury has to reevaluate its approach and prioritize investments that actively contribute to advancing our climate objectives. So Urgent action is needed to ensure that budget allocations support initiatives to promote sustainable transportation and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. 🌍🌱

        At times one wonders who makes these backward decisions. The recent budget cuts to active travel in England jeopardize efforts to combat climate change and promote sustainable transportation.

          The government needs to RE-THINK this decision and prioritize #CleanTransportation. Let's make our voices heard.

            @george_kariuki It is necessary now that citizens make themselves heard and make governments realize they're not invincible. They have to shape up or be voted out

                @princess_nel_268 Such decisions are made by bureaucrats who have no care for the environmental responsibility or who do not care what harm they cause in the long run.
