Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R0X31R - . ESSO EG Causeway filling station - Spar,Greggs,Starbucks, Nectar Wilderspool ,Warrington, Cheshire, England, UK, WA4 6QE. Photographed on 8 May 2023, this spring image records the subject in its real-world setting and provides a contemporary visual reference for the place, activity, object or organisation shown. The recorded location is Wilderspool ,Warrington, Cheshire, England, UK, WA4 6QE, adding precise geographical context for editorial, documentary, travel and local-history searches. Key searchable subjects associated with the scene include Cheshire, WA4, fuel, petrol, diesel, technology, carbon, footprint, unleaded, points, here, Warrington, providing natural SEO coverage without losing the specific documentary identity of the photograph. Transport context makes the photograph useful for stories about rail travel, passenger journeys, stations and interchanges, public transport investment, regional connectivity and the everyday experience of moving through the UK rail network. Railway architecture, passenger facilities, route identity, signage and operational infrastructure are important documentary themes, particularly as stations and services are modernised or altered over time. The transport setting gives the image wider relevance to mobility, infrastructure, roads and public transport, travel behaviour, local connectivity, logistics and the relationship between vehicles and the built environment. It can illustrate planning, transport policy, accessibility, congestion, public investment and the changing technologies and services used to move people or goods. The frame provides a detailed documentary record of the subject as it appeared at the time of photography, preserving the surrounding context as well as the principal feature. Its value is both descriptive and editorial, allowing the scene to illustrate news, features, local history, travel, social change and retrospective comparison.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PYTFXD - . Evening Jet2Holidays Boeing 737-300, just landed at Budapest airport, Hungary at dusk - Jet2 flight leisure travel. Photographed on 1 May 2023. The recorded location is Budapest Ferihegy International Airport, Budapest, 1185 Hungary. Jet2 plc is a British multinational airline company based in Leeds, England. Its head office is located in the Low Fare Finder House on the grounds of Leeds Bradford Airport, England. Subsidiary Jet2.com has its head office in the same building. The historical context is that airline photographs document both engineering and the economics of mass travel
Aircraft type, livery, airport infrastructure and holiday branding show how aviation has evolved through successive generations of jets, low-cost carriers and package-tour businesses. The historical context is that travel photography documents the visitor economy as well as scenery, showing how historic places, coastlines and resort facilities are packaged, experienced and adapted for tourists over time. The wider historical story is that landscape photographs record more than scenery: buildings, vegetation, weather, transport and land use combine to show how a place appeared at a particular moment
Repeated views can later become valuable evidence of development, environmental change and shifting patterns of use. The subject remains topical in 2026 because aviation remains under pressure to reconcile strong demand for travel with climate targets, fuel costs, airspace capacity and fleet modernisation
Images of older aircraft types can therefore illustrate both the growth of low-cost leisure travel and the industry's transition towards newer, more fuel-efficient fleets. The subject remains topical in 2026 because contemporary tourism is shaped by strong demand for city breaks and leisure travel alongside concerns about sustainability, crowding and the environmental cost of transport
Earlier destination images provide useful comparison with today's visitor economy.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PYTFXE - . Jet2 Boeing 737-300, just landed at Budapest airport, Hungary at dusk - Jet2Holidays flight - Ferihegy International Airport, Budapest, 1185 Hungary. Photographed on 1 May 2023. The recorded location is Budapest Ferihegy International Airport, Budapest, 1185 Hungary. Jet2 plc is a British multinational airline company based in Leeds, England. Its head office is located in the Low Fare Finder House on the grounds of Leeds Bradford Airport, England. Subsidiary Jet2.com has its head office in the same building. In the longer view, modern airports are complex transport hubs built around passenger handling, air traffic control, security, ground operations and international connectivity
Aircraft images can also become historical records as particular models are retired and airline fleets modernise. The wider historical story is that landscape photographs record more than scenery: buildings, vegetation, weather, transport and land use combine to show how a place appeared at a particular moment
Repeated views can later become valuable evidence of development, environmental change and shifting patterns of use. As background, popular destinations are shaped by repeated waves of visitors, transport investment and changing ideas of leisure
Beaches, resorts, historic streets and attractions can therefore be read as both travel imagery and social history. Current 2026 relevance comes from the fact that air travel is again a major part of the UK leisure economy, while the sector continues to face scrutiny over carbon emissions and sustainable aviation
Earlier jets and airline branding provide useful context for stories about fleet renewal, tourism and aviation's environmental impact. In the present 2026 context, landscape imagery is increasingly used alongside discussion of climate, resilience, tourism and development
Older panoramas can show how skylines, waterfronts and vegetation have changed over a comparatively short period.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJM7HA - Since 2011, B&M Waste Services have achieved carbon neutrality to the British Standards Industry (BSI)'s Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 2060. In the last 8 years, we have offset just under 20,000 tonnes CO2e by supporting projects in the UK and across the globe. These include supporting UK tree planting in schools and other locations, as well as Landfill Gas Recovery Programmes in Turkey and Indonesia. Also, we have supported a biogas project in Vietnam, renewable energy projects in India, China and Brazil as well as an Avoiding Deforestation Project in Brazil. Within the developing countries, we have supported education and welfare as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This year “ our 8th year of carbon neutrality “ we will offset our carbon emissions through a UK Tree Planting and Protecting the Amazon Programme. For each tCO2e offset, one tree is planted in the UK and an additional tCO2e is offset through the Brazilian Amazon Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) project to guarantee the emission reductions.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BBXPBB - Astley Green Colliery was a coal mine in Astley, Greater Manchester, then in the historic county of Lancashire, England. It was the last colliery to be sunk in Astley. Sinking commenced in 1908 by the Pilkington Colliery Company, a subsidiary of the Clifton and Kersley Coal Company, at the southern edge of the Manchester Coalfield, working the Middle Coal Measures where they dipped under the Permian age rocks under Chat Moss. The colliery was north of the Bridgewater Canal. In 1929 it became part of Manchester Collieries, and in 1947 was nationalised and integrated into the National Coal Board. It closed in 1970, and is now Astley Green Colliery Museum.
No 1 pit was sunk to 890 yards primarily to win coal from the Trencherbone mine and No 2 pit was 833 yards deep. The shaft was 23 feet in diameter. The Crombouke and Rams mines were intersected by the sinkings. Firedamp was a problem in the new workings and ventilation was a problem. The headgear of No.1 pit survives, it is made from wrought iron lattice girders with riveted plates at the joints and one small and two large wheels mounted at the top. It is nearly 30 metres (98 ft) high and was built by Head Wrightson of Stockton-on-Tees and completed by 1912. In 1912 a twin tandem compound 3300 horsepower winding engine built by Yates and Thom of Blackburn, the largest ever used on the Lancashire Coalfield, was installed at No 1 pit. The company built a smaller cross compound winding engine for No 2 pit, installed in 1919.
In 1923 the colliery employed 1524 men underground and 436 surface workers
which increased to 1631 underground and 492 surface workers by 1933. At Nationalisation in 1947 the colliery employed 1375 below and 561 above ground. The surface workers included women, known as pit brow lasses, who sorted coal on the screens. Women were employed at Astley Green until the mid-1950s.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DHGYW4 - A prominent tower block on the Walsall skyline is being stylishly transformed through design and technology to the tune of more than £3million.
Innovative Midlands housing provider whg will make a bold design statement of dated Austin House while cutting residents' fuel bills and carbon footprint. Carbon savings for the project over 25 years are estimated at 2,340 tonnes while customers can expect to save around a third on energy bills.
The leading landlord is working in partnership with British Gas on the landmark project, which is part funded by the national Community Energy Savings Programme (CESP). A series of internal and external work will take place as part of the radical retrofit.
Chameleon boards that change colour depending on the time of day, view point and exposure to sunlight will be fitted down two aspects of the high rise block, which looms large on a hill in the Butts. As well as introducing colour and interest to the building, the boards will provide 406 square metres of insulation.
248 photo voltaic panels will be fixed to a south facing external wall to harness solar power and generate electricity for the communal lighting and lifts. Heat will be extracted from the ground and pumped into Austin House to power a new heating and hot water system. This will replace the inefficient electric storage heaters to give residents more control over the temperature of their flat and the water they use.

Maybe a mantra for our current troubled times?
Perhaps we should worry about our carbon footprint, walk a bit more rather than drive as much? Possibly eat less supermarket food, consume in season and cut down on our food air miles ? Think more about our neighbours, come to think of it, do you even know your neighbours? Some of our prejudges should maybe be put aside, the world's more interesting when it's diverse.
I must have passed this on Orford road coming into Padgate, Warrington Cheshire a few dozen times. To stop at the traffic lights makes you consider these four words a little more deeply. Next time you wait there to follow the A50 or to go to Birchwood following the A574, consider these words.
