It's in our food, cosmetics + cleaning products. But can #PalmOil ever be good for the #rainforest? In Borneo, an unlikely friendship between a farmer and a conservationist is helping wildlife to thrive once again. My latest for @bbcworldservice 📻 https://t.co/vy1TeJUGvQ…

If you want to hear me holding a purple, alien like creature as it wriggles in my hand, I'd recommend listening to this week's 'People Fixing the World' @bbcworldservice 🎧 Also recommended if you're interested in the #climate, #seaweed OR good #pasta! https://t.co/hljasSQJgY

For my latest report for the @bbcworldservice, I found out how drug users in Scotland are being trained to help when their friends overdose. I'm proud of this one, as reducing shame+stigma around #addiction is close to my heart. https://t.co/1yXM4vsATP

"...This is not the way to treat wildlife. I need to engage with the palm industry." This is how two opposing sides are working together to make #PalmOil #sustainable & plantations a better place for #wildlife 🦧 Link: https://t.co/1336VT93oW @PalmChoice @orangutans @RSPOtweets

(1/3) Over the last few months I noticed a lot of property scams taking place in Channel Island Facebook groups. The police told me that in 2021 they had reports of over twenty scams with financial losses totalling over £22,500. I almost fell victim to one of these scams myself
