Protect Samantha Harvey at all costs

Not sure I've ever heard an award acceptance speech that has made me want to go and buy a book as quickly as this one 👏👏👏

The urgent need to make nature protection a priority. Good article by Martha Gill in #TheObserver We are in danger of forgetting what the climate crisis means: extinction | Martha Gill

The Draghi Report on the future of European competitiveness clearly states: decarbonisation & competitiveness are 2 sides of the same coin. If we want to keep jobs, innovation & companies in the EU, we need massive investments in the ecological transition. Time is running out.

Fixing the problems we face after Brexit doesn't start with rejoin. It starts here. Finally, parliament is reflecting what we all know - Brexit has been a disaster. It was brought up in EIGHT separate questions in the House of Commons today. 👇

I’m proud to be one of 1,176 letter co-signatories calling on MPs to back the #CANBill in this week’s private members’ bill ballot. The time for science-led legislation to tackle the climate-nature crisis is now. @Ed_Miliband @SteveReedMP

Single best description of AI I’ve ever read, from the great Ted Chiang.

The catchment area of Europe's rivers, represented in colour. The Danube, in blue, is by far the largest. It connects 10 European countries, and has a drainage are of 315,000 square miles. The UK, is a bit more complicated (surprise surprise). 📷Credit: https://t.co/IACvcDAacg

Liverpool, Walthamstow, Oxford, Bristol - beautiful scenes from up and down the country of communities coming together in the face of hatred this evening. THIS is who we are, THIS is what we should be striving for.

I’m really sick of this Nimbyism attack from Labour What is wrong with being proud of your local place and wanting to protect your local environment? In Stroud, we call it Lambyism: looking after my backyard If everybody did that we wouldn’t be in the mess we’re in

I couldn't be more thrilled to see that this incredible Scottish landcape just got World Heritage Status. The Flow Country. Maybe we're starting to up our act for nature even 40 yrs after it was 1st proposed? I wrote about its impacts in my book Our Place https://t.co/OE3jfE43b1

RT if you think the Greens quadrupling their seats should have as much media attention as Reform!

What a historic Green result in the UK. 😍 Congratulations to Carla, Ellie, Adrian, and Siân on your victory as MPs. Best of luck with your parliamentary work – you'll be amazing. 💚 #GE2024 #VoteGreen

As always, the media are clustering around #VichyNige like flies on sh1t. But the Green result is far more remarkable, as it happened without the massive publicity Reform was given.

As most of the media bangs on about Farage and Reform, the Green Party have won as many seats – all 4 of the seats they targeted. Two were big river seats – people on the River Waveney and River Wye want clean rivers!

LOUD IT

Experts urge action on pesticides as UK insect populations plummet

I am bewildered.The UK is flat on its back. Productivity. Investment. Desperate public services. Decimated by Brexit.Yet tonight all Sky’s “star” Beth Rigby can think to ask is questions about tax as if that is all that matters. Incredible degraded public and journalistic culture
