1) When you have the CEOs, leaders and scientists of RSPB, Wildlife Trust, National Trust, Soil Association and hundreds of other organisations March on parliament for the first time to say the manifestos of Labour and Conservatives are not good enough - that is news @BBCNews

Disgraceful lack of coverage. Nature less important than Taylor Swift taking a selfie….now that’s national news🙄
Pretty much every nature organisation, 350 of them, tens of thousands of scientists, conservationists and growers march through London to tell the UK the manifestos are woefully inadequate to protect nature and us. Unprecedented. @BBCNews … nothing 👀

🚨 URGENT: Doñana National Park on the brink of extinction!🌿💔 Illegal water irrigation practices are pushing this haven for hundreds of thousands of birds to the edge of extinction. The delicate balance of Doñana's ecosystem is being shattered by over 1,000 illegal wells that have sprung up in the vicinity. Powerful pumps are draining precious water from the park's already depleted aquifers. This reckless behaviour is wreaking havoc on the diverse plant and animal species that call this sanctuary home.😭🌱🦜 Read more and share this urgent plea with your friends, family, and social networks 👇🏽 birdlife.org/news/2023/05/15… 📷@SEO_BirdLife

Exactly what I was talking about in the @DailyMailUK 2 weeks ago. A potato crop, 80% water, growing in a water logged field in the middle of the driest area of the UK while local chalk streams run dry. Madness, all of it madness South Sudan has more rain than Norfolk.

Poacher who took £60k worth of salmon gets a £1,600 fine. In the UK the Atlantic salmon is but a breath away from the endangered species list. This man's activities has led to the estimated lost of 686,534 salmon eggs and 2,285,164 sea trout eggs. theguardian.com/environment/…

These irreplaceable old growth forests continue to be logged across British Columbia. Over 1,100 people have been arrested trying to keep them standing. There is no time to waste. Protect the Irreplaceable. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #nature @bcndp #bcpoli #bcgov

Sadly, avian flu is now confirmed in gannets from the #BassRock We continue to track how the disease is spreading within the colony. The scale of impact may not be known for some time, but reports in other affected species suggest a high level of mortality Very worrying times – at North Berwick, Scotland

We're saddened to report cases of avian flu have been confirmed on St Kilda. We've lost a significant proportion of the Great Skua population (104 birds so far this season). We’ll continue to monitor and follow protocols, ensuring staff & visitors are safe #ForTheLoveOfScotland

Is there a difference in cooking method between those from ethnic backgrounds who've learnt culturally from their families versus the way rice is cooked elsewhere? I WASH rice first and depending on variety use absorption method or drain and steam. My parents were from Sylhet

I am glad that - at long last - the use of peat is getting some attention but please ignore the absurd claims that peat is somehow 'better' than any alternative. Would you bulldoze cathedrals because they made 'better' rubble than other buildings?
