I've just emailed my MP to tell them what nature means to me and that I want it to stay protected. Will you take action too?

Not the first time I've posted this, but I always find it quite fascinating how well it continues to hold. For over *two thousand years*, atmospheric CO2 perturbations have scaled with the world GDP. Aren't the implications for climate change mitigation pretty simple...?

There’s a ‘staggering disconnect’ between racing to see natural wonders before they vanish and ignoring the damage we cause by racing to see them.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

The Planning Bill is back in Parliament today.‼️
From the start, it’s been controversial: risking damage to precious wildlife and habitats.
Peers reduced some of those risks.
Now MPs get to vote: keep those protections, or strip them out.
