I ❤ ancient woodland
Awesome stuff, just contributed. More videos please!
Interesting talk - thanks for sharing. Following on from the ESG point - I definitely urge everyone to check their pension investments and see what they're invested in. With auto-enrolement in the UK a lot of people unknowingly invest into fossil fuels (most default funds current invest in a lot of nasties).
Thank you Nikki. We are doing our bit to bite the elephant at family level. Soon a professional move is on the way. Congratulations on the video.
Thanks Gunes. I'm really pleased to hear that. Hope all is well with you and the family. x
Very informative and engaging so thank you for putting this up on RUclips as I missed both live sessions. Looking forward to seeing/hearing more
Wonderful. A one woman manifesto for a really green recovery!
