This is a shame but leaving the bronze stumps and bare plinths with just the qr code to listen to the birdsong would say more about extinction and human-caused biodiversity collapse than just having more pieces made to replace them, in my opinion.

Thieves removed the five artworks from outside Wakefield Council's HQ in November, councillors hear.

We are excited to have made the move from the Highlands down to Sheffield ! It's been over a week now and I'm still awaiting the delivery of my kiln from @Pickfords slight communication error but hopefully they will resolve it soon! 🤞🏻✨

#bbc6music so now it's a "companion episode" ?! Way to reframe the terrible decision to nix the #WildIsles episode that focuses on GB's vastly denuded biodiversity and show it only online. If we are to take extinction seriously it means honestly looking at the trouble we're in.

Good news! BA are leading $24million investment in ZeroAvia -world leaders in carbon-free flight. We traveled to Orkney to talk with them last year & see how they're using Green Hydrogen made from excess renewable energy. New earthrise series coming soon!

Come on #viveraplantsteak if you really want to change the world stop using #singleuseplastics . the product is tasty but your packaging is prohibitive and polluting and undermines your #morelifelessmeat #vivavivera brand.

Before the election, publicity for the ITV broadcast of my film, The Dirty War on the NHS, was subject to an embargo at the very time that the film's theme, the sell-off of the NHS, was at the forefront of British politics. The ITV broadcast is now on Tuesday 17 Dec, at 10.45pm.

Wow, how did Brexit become the key issue? What about our NHS? What about kids starving? What about disabled people dying? What about the planet burning? How does leaving the EU trump these REAL issues? It's been such a fabricated distraction and won't address ANY of these issues!
