I’m gonna spend the day doing all my favourite things: mangling invasive species (HB) in a river with machete on a stick, all with friends and family getting stuck in. We’ll keep doing the good work, but you keep sponsoring trees and other biodiversity work to keep us afloat! 🫡

For my birthday tomorrow the best gift you could get me is sponsoring some trees. We started @protect.earth almost five years ago. I’m so proud of our work but we’re having a rough one. Sponsoring a few thousand trees would help us keep doing our thing.

Whether the Struggle Bus is done struggling or not, I’m feeling pretty bloody lucky that one of my favourite belongings in the world has survived with absolutely zero damage. This bike is a time capsule that ties me to another life in NYC. A life of happiness and adventure. PHEW.

Remember when AI companies claimed they could use AI to fix the climate crisis?. That was entirely fictional in countless ways, but now it’s clear just how made up it was. Big Tech has run out of ideas but they need to make their graphs go up.

As much as I love woodland creation, my real passion for years has been ancient woodland restoration. My charity is hoping to acquire another 11 acres of PAWS directly next to our existing site, so I ask you: help us sponsor a few square meters.

Couple of years ago me and a few folks started a charity to plant a bunch of trees and I never could have imagined what it would turn into. Things like this warm my struggling heart.

The @WildJustice_org campagin to ban driven grouse shooting has just launched, and I strongly urge you all to sign it. This have huge impacts for biodiversity, animal welfare, and climate (burning moors turns them from carbon sink to carbon source).

I love that plan but with me meant to be manging laurel in a chilterns ancient woodland any day now I am left with suggesting you donate £250 and I'll hop on a train for a session.
