This is a very useful contribution to the debate around urban trees https://provocations.darkmatterlabs.org/trees-as-infrastructure-1dd94e1cfedf?gi=11ddb6ccba85
We recognise many of the challenges for small business highlighted in this report by the Senedd Committee for Economy, Infrastructure and Skills.
Still plenty for public bodies to do to enable #Wales-based small businesses to effectively access public procurement ๐

A slap on the wrist for #WelshGovernment for not paying due regard to the #ClimateEmergency in its new budget https://www.assembly.wales/en/newhome/pages/newsitem.aspx?itemid=2068&assembly=5
Hi #WelshGovernment, it might be helpful if your press release could say whether the 0.7% recorded drop in Welsh speakers was statistically significant or not (i.e. is it an expected deviation due to sampling etc?)

The chief statistician's blog post of March 2019 is not terribly helpful in this regard either https://digitalanddata.blog.gov.wales/2019/03/27/chief-statisticians-update-a-discussion-about-the-welsh-language-data-from-the-annual-population-survey/

We're highlighting the new International Strategy for #Wales here - on the face of it, there is some interesting content.๐๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ https://gov.wales/sites/default/files/publications/2020-01/international-strategy-for-wales.pdf
Highlighted sectors include semiconductors, the creative sector and cybersecurity. We're really pleased to see such an emphasis on being a globally responsible country. More feedback to come later, pending availability to do a deep dive!
A very positive story about four #Welsh companies creating sustainable goods or services https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-51034046
"Composition analysis of litter waste in #Wales"
Sure, this looks pretty niche, but doubtless helpful to some of you. And it's the first report we've seen which uses the word 'putrescibles' ๐
Go on, get stuck in to 90 pages of heavy analysis โป๏ธ๐ฎ๐๐ต๏ธ๐ต๏ธ๐

You can also follow us on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/afallen/ (also on the birdsite but we won't say where)
This National Assembly research document on #BlueCarbon (the capacity of the marine ecosystem to capture carbon) in #Wales is a very useful reference document ๐ข๐๐ฆ๐๐ ๐๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ
Recommended reading for anyone with an interest in sustainability generally - we often forget about this crucial part of the biosphere
Our sincere thanks to the principal researchers, Claire Stewart and Emily Williams, and to NERC (Natural Environment Research Council) which supported the research
