Space may be the final frontier, but the modern race to launch rockets and satellites at an unsurpassed rate has generated a large and rapidly growing environmental footprint, the full effects of which are poorly understood. Analysts say proactive national and international regulations are needed.

Day 30 of #30DaysWild. We did it! The boys built wildlife houses in Minecraft to celebrate and they got their certificates. Year 3 done!

Day 29 of #30DaysWild. A bike ride (walk for me). We thought about how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful place.

Day 28 of #30DaysWild. We visited the garden centre today to re-stock the hanging basket. (We bought a couple of chilli plants too).

Day 27 of #30DaysWild. We played Plop Trumps and learned about various animals and their poo!

Day 26 of #30DaysWild. Another walk and we spotted a ladybird pupa!

Day 25 of #30DaysWild. We bought this Lego as a present for the boys for completing the 30 days, but they’ve been so good while I had Covid and still wanted to keep it up even though I said we could stop. So we let them make them tonight.

Day 24 of #30DaysWild. Another local walk. Flowers of many different colours.

Still just over a week to apply for this role.

Day 23 of #30DaysWild. We watched a nature documentary about marine life and then built a Lego fish (from a set).

Day 22 of #30DaysWild. Our first walk since week one, when twin 2 hurt his ankle. Just a little, wet, wildlife hunt as I’m still recovering from Covid. We saw many many snails!

Day 21 of #30DaysWild. Due to the heat, one of the boys designed two automated cooling devices for birds/wildlife. The other designed a fox house. As it is #worldgiraffeday we also read some facts about these fascinating creatures.

Day 20 of #30DaysWild. Spent some time in the garden.

Day 19 of #30DaysWild. A scavenger hunt. Still not up to going out, I drew various shapes for them to find in the garden.

Day 18 of #30DaysWild. We grounded ourselves by standing barefoot on the grass. (A day late as I was in bed with Covid yesterday).

Day 17 of #30DaysWild. The boys (and many other schools) visited Bridgewater Hall today to play with the Halle orchestra. Inspired by this they wrote songs about nature.

Day 16 of #30DaysWild. Today was a reading day and some interesting facts were learnt, including about pandas, turkeys, quail, and the Amazon rainforest.

Day 15 of #30DaysWild. Cheat day. We had a family day out at a retro arcade club for Father’s Day. So our ‘wildlife’ was centipede and millipede 😉 (We also saw a real pheasant on the way home).

This week on Wonkhe: James Coe reviews the latest REF2029 guidance on contributions to knowledge and understanding

Day 14 of #30DaysWild. We spent time contemplating the sky and clouds (and suggesting what things they looked like).

This is everywhere. Every academic institution I know is held together by some exhausted woman in her early 40's who waits until the old white male professors have finished their vague rants and says, "alright, so concretely can I propose the following next steps..." She makes half their salary.

Day 13 of #30DaysWild. Tonight we played wildlife charades/20 questions. There was some ‘interesting’ acting and a diverse range of species on show!

New workshop report out now! FEFA PhD student Sènankpon Tcheton explores how indigenous and local knowledge can shape desirable futures for people and mangrove ecosystems in the Mono Transboundary Biosphere Reserve. futureecosystemsafrica.org/news-and-upd...

Day 12 of #30DaysWild. One of the boys made a poster, while the other one played a game of Canopy with me, where the aim is to grow the most bountiful and ecologically balanced rainforest.

Day 11 of #30DaysWild. We made sound maps. Stood quietly in the garden and drew a map of the sounds we could hear around us.

Come and join me at Liverpool Hope University for #postgrad study from September. I will be leading our MRes in Green Criminology but we have other options including a taught MA. Info in replies. #greencriminology #extremism #transnationalcrime #MA #masters #environment #criminology #terrorism

Day 10 of #30DaysWild. Nana took over today when the boys visited after school. Flower seeds planted to keep the butterflies happy.

Day 9 of #30DaysWild. Having to get creative with not being able to go out for walks, so tonight we did a jigsaw all about rainforests.

Day 8 of #30DaysWild. We did wildlife quizzes today and spotted a duck when we went to the shops!

Day 7 of #30DaysWild. A chipped bone at football has put paid to any walks! So today we played bug bingo and we are now watching a nature documentary.

Day 6 of #30DaysWild. Back outside! Went for a walk past the reservoir and to our local woods. Spent some time among the trees just being quiet and enjoying feeling part of nature.

Day 5 of #30DaysWild. Heavy rain meant no outdoors time, so we have twin two writing an acrostic poem and twin one drawing the picture this time.

Day 4 of #30DaysWild. One drew a parrot and the other wrote an acrostic poem. (There wasn’t time to get outside as it was kick-boxing tonight).

Day 3 of #30DaysWild. No pictures today as the boys went to RHS Bridgewater with school and spent all day outside in the gardens spotting bees, building dens and generally enjoying themselves.

Have you checked out our new podcast yet? If you’re into law & the environment, interdisciplinary research, water and/or tips on thriving as an academic, you might enjoy a listen. (Also, we’re just 11 downloads away from our first 500 & it would be lovely to hit that milestone.)

Day 2 of #30DaysWild. Bug hunting in the garden.

Day 1 of #30DaysWild We started with a 4 mile walk and just enjoyed being out in nature.
