30km from us. And the EU have just given these psychopaths their support to carry this out legally.

Osprey found shot in Angus Glens on opening day of grouse-shooting season. You couldn't make it up. It didn't survive its injuries. Police appeal & commentary from me 👇👇 raptorpersecutionuk.org/2024…

Great to see the new Pedalcab initiative, provided by @ecocarriersbse in @ourburysteds featured on @BBCLookEast news this morning. A great way to have quick view of the town. Delighted that @BuryStEdBeyond is supporting this great idea

Forestry Service orders private equity firm to stop pumping water from California's San Bernardino mountains. Blue Triton acquired water rights when they bought a bottled water firm. Since then, pumping increased, but 94-98% isn't bottled but used for "undisclosed purposes"🧵1/5

Nice bit of discharge from sewerage plant into an otherwise pristine gravel stream. Nice one @YorkshireWater can’t argue it’s storm water hasn’t rained for weeks. @AnglingTrust @marinagibson25 @Feargal_Sharkey

Thames Water issue urgent 'do not drink' warning to hundreds of Surrey homes. Enough is enough, a water company that cannot guarantee its customers safety has failed. Thames Water needs to be placed into special administration as soon as possible. standard.co.uk/news/politics…

A single filter for road runoff aided the return of trout to the Wandle after 90 years, yet no agency is monitoring road runoff, not the EA, not National Highways, not councils, so it's not included in any River Basin Management Plans. @stormwater_jo stormwatershepherds.org.uk/2…
Replying to @leanahosea
In response to these findings, @SE_Rivers_Trust installed a hydrodynamic vortex chamber near the guilty road runoff outfall, to filter the pollution. Results came quickly - within a year, 67 juvenile trout were found in the Wandle after a 90 year absence. 3/3

Genuinely ecstatic that Wellingborough tree campaigners have won today in High Court! This vindicates climbing a tree to stop felling: it was not only the morally right thing to do, it was preventing *illegal* destruction of nature by developer & council saveourtrees.co.uk/2024/05/2…
So, I find myself 30ft in the air up a tree in Wellingborough- surrounded by police, security & tree surgeons- trying to prevent an illegal tree felling. How did I end up here? Here’s an outrageous story of nature destruction & collusion between authorities & private developer 🧵
