Love wild life and wild places. #RestoreNatureNow. Ban driven grouse shooting. Support @WildJustice_org 💚

This poor golden eagle was one of many victims of driven grouse shooting which relies on illegal raptor persecution and (still) legal killing of 1000s of mammals, and drainage & burning of upland peatland causing flooding & contributing to global heating. Pls sign to ban it tinyurl.com/3zwzb7t8

On the 7th day of Christmas…

Care, persistence and collective responsibility matter more than numbers.

So our seven Swans are seven rescue stories – and the incredible work of The Waterfowl Sanctuary.
Seven swans a-swimming: rescue, care and consequence in Cambridgeshire
Across East Anglia, seven swan rescues reveal both how fragile winter survival is, and how collective care keeps hope afloat

Solar+batteries is just going to win.

Solar is comparatively cheap. It's the easiest for power companies to deploy (~1 year vs. 5-10 years for conventional power plants). It's inexpensive to maintain. It's environmentally beneficial. And it can add value to farms by providing shade.

It's a winner

Animal welfare - it seems that Labour @uklabour.bsky.social might finally get it? Pity they don't also get nature conservation and biodiversity #growth #Planning&InfrastructureAct

Happy Winter Solstice, where we celebrate the returning of the light, on the shortest day and longest night.
On the solstice, when the land feels closest to its oldest stories, we’re reminded how much of England’s past remains out of reach.

I’ve been out walking when a so called trail hunt turned up. It was very clear they were chasing a real fox. I heard the poor creature’s screams as it was torn apart by hounds. You never forget that. The idea these people can pose as countryside lovers is ridiculous and insulting.

The more I think about it, the more I reckon the 2003 Iraq War began the process that let Trump win. The blatant lies we were told by our governments, the disregard for public opinion and mockery of international law created a rupture that never healed. Trust, consent and cohesion were smashed.🧵 1/3

A deep-seated culture of entitlement exists in Great Britain’s landowning class. This enables them and their serfs to indulge in criminal behaviour that the rest of us wouldn’t dream of. That these crimes are wrought against OUR birds is indicative of the contempt in which the rest of us is held.

Nigel Farage is probably delighted today that Reform have the most members of a political party.

It doesn't have to be this way.

180,000 and rising. Hope ready to overtake hate.

Snares are a crime against wildlife, but in England we allow them. Labour made a manifesto commitment to ban them - they need to deliver that. For Wildlife's sake.
