It was an honour to host my annual Biodiversity Day in the Senedd. I invited organisations into the Senedd to promote the vital role of biodiversity in keeping our planet healthy. It was great to be with like-minded people who are so committed to improving biodiversity in Wales

Spring may not be quite as sprung as the weekend led us to believe. Don’t worry, though, here’s some very springy sphagnum to see us through to the warmer weather #GreatNorthBog #SphagnumMonday

Reminder ⬇️ There is no legislation to prevent peat being sold for horticulture in the UK. Peat extraction is damaging and the longer we delay, the less prepared businesses can be. See how we got to this point in our Legislation Timeline: https://t.co/cwxSlIYrWC

Peatlands are often wet, gloomy, and inaccessible - but they're beautiful 💚 And they're the world's biggest carbon store, locking up more carbon than all the world's forests. Going #peatfree means we leave the carbon in the ground, and see more of this ✨ 📸 Richard Lindsay

With @theCCCUK #CarbonBudget planning to cut land use emissions via peatland restoration, it's clearer than ever that we must legislate to end peat sales across the UK. We can't ignore horticultural #peat if we're to deliver. See the count: https://t.co/TbEUGPKoXS

7th Carbon Budget plans for over half of land use emissions to be cut by peatland restoration, with healthy peat rising from 26% to 55% this decade⬇️ But this must happen alongside pan-UK legislation to #EndPeatSales. With 1002 tonnes CO2/day from extraction, we can't ignore it.
The UK’s Seventh Carbon Budget level should be set at 535 MtCO2e, an 87% reduction against 1990 levels. This country has a prosperous and secure future ahead. The fossil fuel age is over – it’s time to electrify the United Kingdom. https://t.co/hNgr0emXqD
