Not just us saying this. Your own independent advisors are saying the same. This is a bad policy, badly thought through and will be immensely unpopular with voters. Forget green scapegoats. You are much better than this @teamlabouruk.bsky.social www.express.co.uk/news/politic...

Time for a rethink on the Planning and Infrastructure Bill #AngelaRaynor @marycreagh.bsky.social @teamlabouruk.bsky.social. Ripping up environmental protections won't accelerate economic growth. Just leaves a dirtier, greyer, and poorer world. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The Wildlife Trusts are in the process of buying a 3,850 hectare estate, one of the largest nature regeneration projects in the UK 💞 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Time to end peatland burning @marycreagh.bsky.social www.wildlifetrusts.org/news/ban-bur...

Burning has no place in our uplands. Let nature return and bring some ecological richness and balance back to our glorious upland landscape. Listen: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... (listen from 05:18)

Exciting news! I'll be speaking at the Nature Finance Forum 2025 in Paris on April 28, organised by @Climate_Action_ in partnership with @UNEP_FI Join us: events.climateaction.org/nature-finan... #NFFEU #NatureFinance #SustainableInvesting #NaturePositive #ClimateAction

Or let beavers free everywhere and let them build natural flood defences. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A beacon of good news. It's not too late to push back against Trumpian madness - we still have time to address the climate and nature crisis. The forces of the good will rise again. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Surely a statement of the bleedin’ obvious but good to see disgraceful NFU taken down in court. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This is a wake-up call. We need global action to cut out plastic from our lives. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Diversity is strength. Proud be working for an organisation that celebrates diversity. @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social www.wildlifetrusts.org/blog/wild-ab...

www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... And a bit more beaver talk. This time on Radio4 Today. Listen in at 43mins.

Good to talk beaver on @bbcbreakfast.bsky.social. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The @teamlabouruk.bsky.social must stick to net zero pledges. Voters and our beleaguered planet will not forgive. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Most garden centers I visit provide a multitude of ways to kill stuff - seems like the opposite of gardening. A sea of poison and death. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Charing Cross Road, pedestrianised today. Glorious. Because whenever you take cars away, cities get better.

Wow

Poor speech from Rachel Reeves. Yesterday's growth solutions are not the way forward. We need to grow an economy that secures a liveable future for all. Polluting airports for the few ... sigh. Labour had a green growth vision that many voted for. Stick to it. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We await for Rachel (Truss-) Reeves talk at Davos trumpeting growth before net zero. Let's hope she comes back to sense - there is no worthwhile growth without resolving the climate and nature crisis. Ask homeowners in Somerset (or Los Angeles or Valencia or ...): www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It’s hard for 🇺🇸 to understand why it’s so complicated to ok beaver, wolf and martin reintroduction in the UK. Can you briefly explain…

Finally - a glimmer of nature positivity coming from @teamlabouruk.bsky.social. Good news indeed. www.gov.uk/government/n...

The case against the fossil fuel companies for the ecocide of our planet is building. It is increasingly becoming a question of when rather than if fossil fuel board members end up in prison. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

www.theguardian.com/environment/... Not sure they have but time to stop faffing and get on with allowing beavers back.

Rather than going to the courts, we need DEFRA to focus on cleaning up agri-pollution. This is not burdensome red tape, simply compliance with pollution laws. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A regular reminder that #beavers are brilliant for climate change #adaptation. They store water in times of drought, and hold it back in times of flood. And not just small volumes, but millions of litres. We could really use their help. www.wildlifetrusts.org/saving-speci...

Spot on sadly: open.substack.com/pub/bengolds...

The cost of climate change damages to the UK projected to increase from 1.1% of GDP at present to 7.4% by 2100. The cost of the Los Angeles fires estimated at $135bn – about a 3.5% total GDP loss to the Californian economy in one week. Perhaps we've under-estimated. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hello Bluesky folks. I've transferred from X. I'm the Director of Landscape Recovery at the Wildlife Trusts and fascinated by the interaction between politics and nature's recovery. Want to see a cleaner, greener and more peaceful world. So do follow, Rob.
