Why we need to respect Earth’s last great wilderness – the ocean

There are plans to harness our seas to help tackle the effects of the climate emergency. But without understanding and respect a life support system for our planet could be trashed

Queen #Bees - HELP THEM OUT! Another important thread concerning #bumblebee queens at this time of year! Please #retweet/#share as every queen bee that survives gets to establish a nest that otherwise would not happen. This has knock on effects going forward. Let me explain. 1/11

Many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - why they’re seeing them on the ground - so here’s a quick thread to explain what they’re up to. Please #retweet as every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year! 1/8

I just told my 9 yr old daughter to stare at it and tell me what happens. She started for a few seconds and said ‘oh it went white’. Just fades out for me. Weird! 🤪

The marrying together of materials needs careful consideration. Here you can see how beautifully @ChelmerValley Abbey Dark Multi and @_LONDONSTONE Kota Blue work together. A great collaboration of paving units! #gardendesignsussex #gardendesigner #landscaping #garden #lovemyjob
