Drought action waits for taps to run low instead of keeping rivers alive🚿 We need a more proactive approach to keep chalk streams flowing, protect farms & shield species🌊 This must include industry fixing leaks, & campaigns to boost water efficiency🚰 https://t.co/6RFMJLqLS6

And to establish links between existing woodland and tree cover through providing “stepping stones” to allow species such as Willow Tit to increase their range, and to provide extra cover and food for a range of species, such as Redwing, Fieldfare and Ring Ouzel. (3/3)

🚨Our National Parks face historic funding cuts, threatening nature & communities. They were built on visionary action & they need the same today. With the right funding & protections from the government, they can become stronger for future generations. https://t.co/QraEVH470L

Some won’t have enough money to do “the bare minimum’ for UK’s most beautiful landscapes

📢 71% of the public support stronger protections for nature, so why is the government weakening them? Blaming the environment for our broken economy is wrong. Sustainable growth requires a sustainable environment.

This month, you might spot metal tree guards popping up on the moors. As part of our centenary tree planting, we're replacing iconic moorland trees and creating wildlife corridors to support bird species like the Willow Tit and Ring Ouzel. https://t.co/87zJuRz0oc

This evening, my youngest daughter and I walked a mini pilgrimage from the place where Ethel Haythornthwaite was born to the place where she is buried. It is not far, but it felt like a special journey. @cprepdsy

We’re hoping to plant 100 trees in the moorlands around Sheffield as part of our Centenary Tree Planting programme. That’s one tree for every year we’ve worked to preserve and enhance the countryside. But we need your help to bring this project to life. https://t.co/MCpgAZiOVP

We’d like to congratulate and thank the the House of Commons for (finally!) voting to introduce a Deposit Return Scheme, by approving the Deposit Scheme for Drinks Containers Regulations 2024. Along with the wider @CPRE we’ve campaigned for this for an awfully long time🥳

Thoughtful @newfieldsheff students think “Exploits of Ethel” is an important project because she was a “local figure and founder of a group that is still important today” – referring to charity @cprepdsy @CPRE @salthepoet @sj_unwin @GleadlessVTrees @discombobulous @susannahwright

🌞Lower bills, renewable energy, and climate action – that’s what the Sunshine Bill can deliver. But it can’t happen unless MPs vote for rooftop solar on 17th Jan. 📩 Email your MP today and have your say: https://t.co/9sY5QrFr7H

I’ve asked my MP to vote in favour of rooftop solar in parliament on Friday 17 January. Will you do the same?
