- Greens in York have pointed out that when the A19 was resurfaced, 20 or 30 yards of cycle lane disappeared! Comicly, they left the "cycle lane" sign behind.
- Greens in Brighton highlight how the Sustainable Cities Index study, conducted by Forum For The Future, said the city needed to work on air and water quality.
- The Herefordshire Green Party recently sponsored the ninth Leominster Apple Fair.
- Finally, the Green Party in Switzerland gained in elections this week:
The Green Party fell just shy of 10% of the vote and surged to a new high of 20 seats in the 200-seat lower house, the National Council. The nascent centre-right Liberal Greens took three more. Helped by worries about climate change in a nation full of mountains and glaciers, and with a reputation for efficiency in several cities and regions, the Greens also gained their first seat in the Senate. Although the ecologists remain behind the four biggest parties—and therefore outside the government—they have a new role to play as kingmakers in parliament, where no party commands a majority.
