Good news for London’s open water swimmers - a new floating lido is coming to Canary Wharf’s Eden Dock. Great to see more opportunities to enjoy London’s blue spaces. And it looks spectacular ⬇

Choose Love: the shop selling life-saving gifts for refugees ♥️ Great to spend time at their Regent Street store, which is open until Christmas Eve - and you can also shop online if you can’t make it in person. Highly recommended for last-minute gifts! 🎁

☀️ Solar power has scaled up faster than any other source of electricity in history ↗️ It took just 8 years to go from 100 TWh to 1000 TWh. It will only take 3 years to go from 1000 TWh to 2000 TWh!
