The London Borough of Newham has the largest homepage of any UK council. It is currently over 22MB. I've tried using their contact form to tell them what they can do, but not heard back. I've made a breakdown of their homepage at https://open-innovations.github.io/council-website-emissions/areas/E09000025.html with tips for them. Does anyone on here happen to know the web team at Newham and could ask them to optimise images?

The London Borough of Newham homepage produces 1.83g of CO2 emissions per visit (as of 2024-01-09).

As of February 2023, these are the UK councils with the highest estimated CO2 emissions (per visit) from their homepages: https://open-innovations.github.io/council-website-emissions/ #emissions #council #GreenWeb

How are council websites impacting the planet? You may not think of websites as sources of carbon emissions but they are.

The petition calling for a public enquiry into Brexit has reached over 100,000 signatures, and will now be considered for debate in Parliament.

This would be the first time the consequences of Brexit will have been discussed by our MPs.

It's long overdue.

Regretfully, the petition to remove #LGBT content from the #UK curriculum has 197,100 signatures.

The counter petition asking for that content to remain, is rapidly gaining ground. It now has 78,919 signatures!

Pls sign the counter petition if able. British citizens & UK residents have the right to sign. Pls boost otherwise!

Petition: Do not remove LGBT content from the Relationships Education curriculum

We believe kids should learn about this at an early age. I am sure there are many parents who want their and other children taught about LGBT issues in primary school.
