Learning doesn’t just happen behind a desk. Countries like Finland have shown that outdoor and play-based learning is better for young children. Scottish Greens will: 🟢Raise the school starting age to 7 🟢Introduce a play-based kindergarten stage for 3 to 6 year olds

Fix this first. The problem isn't lack of homes - it's inequality of home ownership.

Tree ferns, some of the oldest plants, embody endurance and primeval times. Their unfurling fronds, known as the koru in Māori culture, symbolise new life and renewal. Long linked with magic and protection, they stand as living bridges between the ancient past and the present.

Take down bird feeders this summer to cut spread of avian disease, says RSPB
Charity advises replacing seed and nut feeders, where birds gather, with small amounts of mealworms, fat balls or suet Garden birds should not be fed seeds and nuts over the summer months, the RSPB has said, in an attempt to reduce the spread of avian diseases. Bird lovers are being urged to take down their bird feeders between May and October to help birds such as the greenfinch, whose numbers have plummeted after the spread of trichomonosis, a parasitic disease transmitted more easily when birds cluster around feeders in the warmer months.

Please mow less this Spring to help the bees! 🐝 Lawn weeds (esp dandelions) are one of the few food sources bees can rely on in early spring to stay alive. A struggle to find enough nectar now, could have devastating effects on flowers, fruit & veg that rely heavily on pollination.

Drilling for more oil & gas in the North Sea won't lower bills, it won't make us more energy independent and it won't insulate us from price shocks. A Labour backslide on this would be a huge betrayal. Double down on renewables. Insulate every home. Lower bills, permanently.

The bias means we have to do it ourselves and the evidence is people vote for the party their neighbours vote for. So even if like me you can't get formally involved in the party's work, make a point of telling people you support the Green Party. Make voting Green normal as well as hope. 💚
