Why does #biodiversity matter? 🌱 Every day there are millions of interactions in #nature that are essential for a healthy, functioning planet. Losing even a small species can have massive impacts on ecosystems and on humans. 🦠 Find out more in this handy infographic.
An infographic depicting a few interactions in nature, for example an ant that plants a tree seed, and the tree in turn providing various benefits to other species including humans. Overlay text at the bottom reads: “learn what IPBES is doing to advance biodiversity knowledge and the policies needed to protect it at ipbes.net”

We’ve had a number of enquiries lately from people worried about having a bumblebee ‘hive’ in their garden. ‘Are they dangerous?’ ‘Should I have them removed?’ ‘Will they be there forever?’ Here’s a quick bumblebee lifecycle thread to explain. Please #retweet for the #bees. 1/14
