URGENT HELP NEEDED: Wales is now the only part of Britain to have not placed restrictions on grouse moors burning carbon-rich peatlands.
RT if you agree @Lesley4Wrexham should implement a ban to protect nature and the climate.
Mine too Martin - although we see it less often than you. Back in May, can't wait!
My favourite view 😍 even though I see it a lot it never fails to make an impression on me. The light on the hills and the Loch is never the same 2days in a row. Check out that tide line #Mull

A bit grim in the River Bollin at #Macclesfield this morning. Whatever toxic waste has been dumped in there has killed all the fish. #StormHour
in what possible world is this ok?? No no, no and no again!!
Surely not? If so, both @NaturalEngland and @TonyJuniper have stooped lower than ever & huge changes are needed.
Gutted! Given the quality of some of the other things that haven't been cut, it's a hard decision to comprehend
#Autumnwatch has been cancelled by the BBC

What a senseless waste. Why kill such a gentle creature? For 'sport'?!? For pleasure?!? Because it is something that you have wanted to do since you were a child?!? 😡😡
Please RT if you want a global ban on ALL trophy hunting NOW!

"Thames Water made £2m of profit a day during summer hosepipe ban."
Everything you needed to know about the state of England's water industry and government's utter failure to deal with it in a single sentence.

"Southern Water discharged 'five MONTHS' worth of raw sewage at bathing beaches in the first eight days of November."
Fined £93,464,000 since 2010 for breaking environment law. Fines are clearly no deterrent.
We must make directors personally liable.

ARRRGGH!!!
What should only happen during 'extreme rainfall' is now a daily occurrence. Water companies pumped over 3,700 hours of sewage in just EIGHT days across our beaches. 🤬

Sick of this - moved to the coast so we could swim and use the see but we've just ended up paying Southern Water to take our waste away and dump it
"Southern Water ‘dumps sewage 493 times in eight days at bathing beaches".
So the next time your MP tells you they did not vote to legalise the dumping of sewage show them this and ask
"Did you not understand what it was you were doing?

FFS!! @canterburycc
Want to see some plain madness ? Here’s some apparently courtesy of @canterburycc . This could be a wildflower patch , it would be dry but still more productive and cheaper than this desert . Insane !

As long as companies like @McDonalds are removing urban trees and replacing them with plastic grass we’re screwed. We’ve got to stop doing this. @WoodlandTrust

Just heard the CE of @Ofwat on @BBCr4today not saying anything . Asked why sewage leaks had been allowed to continue - he didn’t answer . Asked when they would stop - he didn’t answer . No accountability . A mute regulator that hasn’t regulated . @Feargal_Sharkey @GreenJennyJones
Wrong, I’ll-informed and stupid!
Having another to-and-fro on Facebook (shock). The neat and tidy brigade are trying their hardest to get no mow areas mown, saying mowing makes no difference to wildlife declines and "I can't move for wasps and spiders". Sorry but you're just wrong! #ShiftingBaselineSyndrome
Keep going Richard...I've also written to my MP and signed more than once!
