RT @ScottDuncanWX: Unprecedented warmth and melt in Greenland this September. Some places average more than +8°C above seasonal average for the month.
Meanwhile, Planet Earth records its 4th warmest September on record.

See how we’re helping make London cleaner and greener for everyone.
RT @willnorman: Our new fleet of electric Santander Cycles - launched today - are serviced by our new fleet of electric cargo bikes.
Greener, cleaner, safer, healthier and more efficient.
@TfL @CargoRevolution
RT @MayorofLondon: It was fantastic to join Londoners to try out our first ever Santander Cycles e-bikes today. 🔋🚲
This launch is another momentous moment for cycling in London after a record-breaking year for @TfL's Santander Cycles, which saw over 12.5 MILLION hires.
RT @MayorofLondon: London has been ranked the 18th most polluted city in the world based on air quality, light pollution & traffic congestion.
That’s nothing to be proud of, and we need to act 1/2
RT @kajakallas: My warm wishes on #German Unity Day.
In 1988 at Brandenburg Gate my dad told me: "Breathe in deeply, that’s the air of freedom that comes from the other side." I didn't know what freedom was.
German reunification was part of a wind of change that brought freedom back to Europe.
@DanLThorpe @LondonMarathon @Leofletcher6 @gbchospice @MichaelUPB Congratulations!! 👏 👏
@patrickmoule None of those things do it for me 😂 - but the BST thing we can definitely agree on! ☀️
@patrickmoule After which the sunset won’t be post 5pm for 14 long, interminable weeks 😩
RT @MayorofLondon: Black history will always be London’s history. This #BlackHistoryMonth, I want to pay tribute to the significant contribution London’s Black communities have made to our city.
We must write the next chapter, one free from racism and discrimination, where everyone can succeed.
RT @willnorman: I'm delighted we're able to restart free cycle training in London, now we've secured a funding deal.
@TfL increased its funding to £5.4m over next 2 years.

A real privilege to meet Mayor of Kyiv @Vitaliy_Klychko and to reiterate Mayor of London @SadiqKhan’s commitment to the people of Ukraine. London stands with Ukraine and we’ll do whatever it takes to support them #StandWithUkraine
He warns of the existential threat the war poses. It is not just a fight for Kyiv, Ukraine and its people - vital as that is - or even for Eastern Europe but for Europe itself. An enslaved Ukraine means others will be next. #StandWithUkraine
Those who grew up in the USSR, he says, understand the difference between a free and totalitarian society. Those who grew up after the collapse of the Soviet Union refuse to be subjugated as his generation initially was.
He describes the power of propaganda in a totalitarian state; how he himself cried as a small boy at the death of Brezhnev, fearing becoming a slave of the US.
A real honour to represent London and to hear Mayor of Kyiv @Vitaliy_Klychko at today’s Pact of Free Cities summit. His was a powerful testimony of the fight for freedom, and of hope for a future without war.
@DaveKeating 🤦🏼♂️
RT @_katedevlin: NEW: Sadiq Khan announces free travel for thousands of lowest paid transport workers.
