Merry Christmas! 🎄
Thank you to everyone for joining us for another year of recycling – thank you for all the time and effort you spent in your dressing gown taking out the recycling, sorting tins from cans, replacing lids. Every action helps us to get Wales to number one.
ALT A square pad of white paper sits in the middle of pine cones, candy canes, pine branches and baubles. The note on the paper reads 'Merry Christmas from Wales Recycles'.
An excellent programme aired last night giving examples of the fantastic efforts in Wales on reuse, recycling and litter. As Cllr Vaughan Owen said: "Wales led the world on the industrial revolution, it can lead the world on the green revolution". itv.com/news/wales/2023-04-2…

Recently, while on a visit to Conwy, Julie James explained some of the benefits changing to a 20mph default limit. 🚗
Like safer, happier, quieter streets.
From 17 September, most 30mph limits across Wales will change to 20mph.

There’s been a lot of misplaced criticism of this decision to stop singing ‘Delilah’
The song depicts the murder of a woman by a jealous partner
For context, approx 2 women a week are murdered by a partner or ex-partner
It’s time to sing something else bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-6448…

The Deposit Return Scheme is going to be rolled out here by 2025.
We will pay a small deposit when buying a drink in a single-use container, which we get back when we return the bottle or can.

In Wales, recycling is what we do! ♻️
🥉We’re 3rd in the world for household recycling but we think we can do even better.
@HOTVFundraising has been separating its waste since 2020. Today, we set out how we want Welsh businesses, public sector & 3rd sector to follow their lead.

So, despite fine words from @FIFAWorldCup before event @Cymru rainbow Bucket hats confiscated at stadium, mine included. I had a conversation about this with stewards - we have video evidence. This #WorldCup2022 just gets better but we will continue stand up for our values 🌈

There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change.
There is no energy security without investing in renewables.
That is why I will attend @COP27P next week: to deliver on Glasgow's legacy of building a secure and sustainable future.
