A report published in 2019 and re-emphasised in 2023 recommends that by 2030 we will not be permitted to eat meat or dairy products, we will be limited to three items of new clothing per year and one aeroplane flight every three years. It will start in countries that “consume the most.”
Published in 2019, ‘The Future of Urban Consumption in a 1.5°C World’ report sets out targets for cities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as consistent with the 2015 Paris Agreement ambitions. What this report aims to do is quantify and then suggest ways for city “leaders” to reduce consumption-based emissions.

This morning, I had the wonderful sunlit park area totally to myself, that is, there was absolutely nobody else around! 🙂
So, I had left my place a bit after 8 AM.
How early is that! 😀 I walked slowly. Always, after about twenty minutes, the walking gets easier and a bit faster. –
I contemplated, how a year ago we were still in the midst of lockdown. Yet, I am sure, last year there would have been quite a few people around with their dogs walking in this lovely, little park. So, what has changed?
When I got to the end of the walkway, I hugged two of my favourite, really magnificent trees. I noticed a bit of pink writing on the trunk of one of the trees. It said: Jesus saves!
