The world needs more metals for a sustainable future. But is it better to get these metals from the deep ocean or tropical rainforests?!

@Con_ConUK @WildlifeTrusts @BorisJohnson @justinmadders Lesson from history: China 1959 Campaign to kill birds, result: Swarms of locusts + Great Chinese Famine. An old allotment trick - hang up bird feeders - tits & finches eat aphids while queueing up for the feeder - alternative to neonics. #Neonicotinoids @DefraGovUK

Happy #WorldWetlandsDay! 💧🌏 We’ve lost 90% of these incredible habitats in the UK in the 100yrs. A rich, dynamic, carbon-sink home to thousands of species 🌱 Did you know? A beaver-managed wetland can store up to 30% more carbon than a non-beaver managed wetland?! 💡🦫🐾

Lifeguards were also physically unable to reach the sea and do their job. Forced to leave the beach as they were being abused. Is this real life? Is this how we operate? We are disgusting. We do not deserve this world.
12 tonnes of rubbish left on Bournemouth beach yesterday. People had even defecated in burger boxes & left on beach. We are creating a pandemic & pollution hell on Earth #Covid19UK #plasticpollution
