For a great example of managing land for nature & people, whilst being sympathetic to local history, listen to the Canon Chancellor of @StAlbansCath being interviewed on @radioverulam about the replanting of Sumpter Yard. (Plus peregrines on the tower!) radioverulam.com/podcast/wil…

Great timing as new cases hit 316000 admissions increasing and cases over 60 surging and we haven’t mentioned Long Covid yet . No sign of a slowdown - thanks for sharing

Why is the NHS past breaking point?
I wish I could bring you good news. I wish I could tell you as the peak of Omicron passes🤞we are regaining the capacity to treat the millions waiting for urgent and routine care. But, honestly, it has never been as bad as this.
Why?

Nearly spat my tea across the lunch table, reading Luton airport's new slogan ....
(Consultation on airport expansion is open again [presumably they didn't like the answer last time] till 4th April. @SustainableStA @StAlbansFoE @RV_environment time to spread the word again.)

Boris Johnson said he was committed to curbing the climate crisis at #COP26, but the UK government is pledging over $1 billion for a new climate-wrecking gas project in Mozambique. I signed @friends_earth’s petition to demand he pulls support. Will you? act.friendsoftheearth.uk/pet…

Think I've just found my absolute favourite new cartoon on the #biodiversity crisis and how exactly it relates to, well, us.

@AmandaEY is the most effective, encouraging interviewer anyone could wish for. No wonder Amanda's @radioverulum @RV_environment programme is prized for being informative. – at East, England

👇 Have a look at the 16 highest-impact climate actions, clearly set-out by Count Us In. Then commit to one on the website. It then automatically nags you gently until you get it done which (I found) really helps. IPCC just gave humanity a 'code red' and we can all be doing more.
Did you know, making a public commitment to something is one of the best ways to make sure you stick to it!
Haven’t signed up to #CountUsIn because you aren’t sure you can commit? Pick a step to try for just two months and see how you get on.

👇 We'll all have been hearing about the 'code red for humanity' from the recent IPCC report. Frankly terrifying. In the face of that awfulness, if you want to know what you can do that can make a difference, then click through and pick one of the 16 Count Us In actions.

On 23rd June 40 police raided the headquarters of an architectural charity and smashed up a design and arrested the owner. Had you heard about it? No, me neither!

'Desire paths' through #NoMowMay lawns are a real thing this year. They are a great way to demonstrate your support for wilder lawns while signaling that you're not just being lazy to neighbours!
Loads of key lawn advice HERE: plantlife.org.uk/everyflower…
#NoMowMay has made us so happy even in our small garden. Have also got 2 hedgehogs and lots of birds coming regularly. Brilliant idea.
