It has been a privilege to hear the stories and experiences of some of the passionate people fighting for the Wye as part of the #SMMR #DiverseValues #CommunityVoiceMethod research. An amazing community united by our beautiful river - I deeply appreciate you #WaterIsLife @mcsuk

Trying to watch @billieeilish at glasto with my daughter - who likes the music well enough- but can't watch because of the strobing. Maybe @glastonbury should give a thought to inclusion when it comes to light shows @ChrisGPackham exclusion can be as light as light.
Well this looks like some good news @OneLessBTL #OneLess #plasticfreejuly @mcsuk Perhaps the same is due in the UK?

I would argue that there shouldn’t be any “destructive fishing activities” in any Marine Protected Areas (or anywhere else for that matter) but at least this is a start… albeit a long overdue one. 🌊 🐠 🐟 🦞 🦭
From TODAY, there will be no more destructive fishing activities in 4 of the UK’s offshore MPAs! A new byelaw banning bottom trawling and dredging comes into force today, protecting the Dogger Bank, Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge SAC, South Dorset MCZ and The Canyons🎉
