Feedback on TRANSFORM October issue.

Kerrie Craig

Environmental Consultant at Royal HaskoningDHV Delighted to have received my IEMA Future Sustainability Leader Award in the post today! In a week of very positive news from the Prime Minister, intending every UK home to be powered with offshore wind energy by 2030, this added a spring to my step and further motivation to keep up the hard work with our clients to get these offshore windfarms consented and constructed! #offshorewind #enhancingsocietytogether #iemaawards2020

Impressive to read #IEMA's approach to responding to the #ClimateEmergency. I am pleased to see the focus on what the science requires for a 1.5°C cap on warming as well as wider work to influence change @iemanet @nblythiema @Anna_LisaMills

The October issue of @IEMA_Transform is out. Lots of interesting articles I'll be getting stuck into, along with three of my top book picks by @mark_lynas @KateRaworth and the late Gerald Durrell. @MarekBidwell

Got my copy yesterday, packed with great articles on energy this month! Another excellent issue. @Bluedotaug

Great to open up the October issue of IEMA Transform and read the excellent article by Dr Uchechukwu Okere on the crucial role of universities and education for sustainable development @MHBrown2020

@iemanet Environment Bill webinar. @RSBenwell of @WCL_News calling for the government's biodiversity #GreenTargets to include 'landscape-wide' and 'marine-wide' wildlife improvement, not only targets for (relatively tiny) protected areas. #UnlockNature @MarekBidwell

Great speaking as part of a panel today at @iemanet Broadway Initiative @AldersgateGrp event on #greentargets. This is an important subject as the #EnvironmentBill will establish an important framework for environmental improvements. @signenorb
