Is there another place people are going? 😭🤞

The change of T&Cs and monthly charges make me think it is time to leave #twitter. Will really miss the connections & learning the platform has provided 😔 #sciencetwitter #conservation #ecology #behaviour #scottishtwitter #cetaceans #research #biodiversity

So the day has come! Where are people heading to instead? #RIPTwitter

Incredibly sad #Pilotwhale mass stranding on the Isle of Lewis. Experts from @Strandings @BDMLR and others are on site to gain insight on why this happened. By collating distribution data, the #JCDP can help us understand the wider impacts of events like this on populations.

Professor Kevin Anderson is addressing all of us in very clear words: »We are heading towards 3 to 4°C of warming across this century, an absolute climate catastrophe for all species incl our own. And all we are doing so far is giving rhetoric and optimism and greenwash.« 🧵1/8

Surf waves coincide w/ biologically diverse marine&coastal ecosystems. Through the Surf Conservation Partnership, @ConservationOrg & @SavetheWaves work to mobilize the global surf community as advocates for protecting these important ecosystems. #NatureisSpeaking #WorldSurfingDay

Welcome to #climatechaos @BBCHighlands @MairiMcAllan @BBCNews @STVNews

Flashfloods and landslides on Monday, wildfires on Wednesday in #Lochaber. The impacts of #climatechange are real and are happening now folks. We need our #government to step-up. I don't want to accept this as our new normal. @GretaThunberg @scotgov https://t.co/MBC2Qly9NO

Well, at least we know where it was exactly on Ben Nevis that lightning struck yesterday, as shown in the @BBCWthrWatchers photo. A video from mountain guide Rich Pyne from Nevis summit at lunchtime. Extraordinary. 📹 https://t.co/tk1z6CHww4

Multiple #landslides on the #Kinlochleven high road

#flashfood in #glencoe. No rain for 4 weeks and a sudden torrential downpour, the water has come barreling off the hills. Never seen anything like it here. @BBCNews #ClimateEmergency #scotland #ClimateAction #highlands #climatechangeishappeningnow

🚱Según @CopernicusEMS, durante el 2º periodo de 10 días de mayo, la #PenínsulaIbérica y la región del Báltico fueron las zonas más afectadas por la #sequía. 🟠25,9% del territorio de la UE-27 en situación de Aviso (+4,6%) 🔴8% en situación de Alerta (+2,4%) vía: @CopernicusEMS

Attitudes have to change. We can’t let folk off with calling An Lochan Uaine ‘the green loch’. That’s not it’s name, and ur contributing to cultural erasure, whether u think u are or not. There’s no excuse, particularly for those who proclaim to be experts.

This is huge news! #seabirds #birdflu #science

The recent low tides at Camas a' Chòis have revealed some incredible life. The definite highlight was a stranded lesser spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula). He was unscathed and returned to the water- what a beautiful wee #shark! #marinelife #rockpooling #highlands

If you can spare any tiny amount it would be magnificent to help them reach (and surpass!) this target. Donate here> https://t.co/ab4m8V6N1O

Since then I have worked for them as a Research Assistant and Volunteer Coordinator on and off over the years, always learning incredible things about Scottish cetaceans and meeting amazing people along the way. 2/

The @CRRU are looking for donations to run a minke whale research project in the Moray Firth, as part of the #GreenMatchFund. #CRRU have been a pivotal & important part of my life since I was 15 as I convinced school H&S to accept a week with the charity as work experience. 1/

I worry that the conversation is getting so divided that the possibility of any #HPMAs in #Scottish waters in the future is doubtful. @scotgov and @marinescotland need to reassess and understand the damage being done to relations between & within #coastalcommunities

At this time, their implementation may be premature, but this doesn't mean they don't have a place in #Scotland, or that they wouldn't work to improve the health of our #ecosystems. https://t.co/KZwLOVARqI
