This powerful video of the poem “I’m Fine” by Becky Hemsley highlights the importance of taking time to really check how family, friends & others are doing - to go back after that first “I’m Fine” & check again. The load is lighter if we share. 😊 #kindnessmatters #keeptalking

Please do not release balloons into the sky. Not only is it bad for the environment but it can be fatal for grazing livestock!

Dear @richardbranson. Congratulations on your @virgingalactic space trip; it looked like one helluva good jaunt. I am not jealous at all! I am however pretty disappointed in the apparent hypocrisy of your stance on climate change. 1⃣

'Weak or missing animal welfare legislation and the long-distance transport, with cattle and sheep forced to travel for unacceptably long periods without food, water or rest, is something British consumers need to know about'. #AustraliaTradeDeal https://t.co/cz7RDeGiRt

My soapbox message today . Pls RT if you agree .

New @rowett_abdn #research Jennie Macdiarmid & colleagues have published a paper showing consumers are willing to pay a premium for ready meals labelled with a low carbon footprint, but not when it means less meat. https://t.co/vfUEHFPH1l

Listen to this. Happening now (as every night, in every community in Spain). Madrid is filled with the sound of applause for the incredible, brave work being done by Spain’s medical workers. It really sends shivers through you. The sound of an entire nation united in gratitude ..

*Please RT* Many thanks to @NSA_Scotland, @SAMW_meat , @ScottishBeefAss, @SAYFC, @ScoCraftButcher for co-signing a letter we issued to Scottish media today to let consumers know how our industry is working extremely hard to ensure supply of our fantastic brands. 👍🥩

So #MeatAThreatToOurPlanet missed giving any real balance to its UK audience by showcasing how meat production in UK is different from all the places it has shown in the last hour! One of the most cynical pieces I have seen from @bbc masquerading as real journalism

If you are watching the bbc docu this evening, think about the comparisons to the Uk and Scottish production systems. 20 mins in and with a 25 year career in agric I don’t recognise the methods shown as aligned to the UK. Not all systems are equal. Know your food

Don’t believe the hype. Buy local, Scotch beef, the best you can get, beef done right. I’m building soil fertility, storing carbon, maintaining habitats & looking after the land. Producing world class, nutrient dense, tasty beef🥩🌱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿#MeatAThreatToOurPlanet #solutionnottheproblem

British beef cattle are grazed on traditional pasture land, not on burnt out rainforest. Our welfare standards are some of the world’s highest. Buy sustainable - buy British 🇬🇧 #MeatAThreatToOurPlanet
