The EU is on track to do its part to protect the climate by 2050 but we can’t stop pushing for it! 🇪🇺 Next week, the European Council is discussing climate targets that they will bring at COP30. We urge them to make them ambitious. To protect the climate is to protect Europe.

STOP Splat the Bat! Here is some (serious) international guidance I helped with, on preventing collisions of bats on roads and railways. Step 1 . Avoid woodlands and other places with loads of bats. 🦇🦤 #HS2 #batshed @craigbennett3.bsky.social www.eurobats.org/sites/defaul...

A large solar park is planned in one of Europe's biodiversity hotspots: the Eastern Rhodopes in #Bulgaria. Though electricity is a necessity, this is not the best place to build a solar park. Sign the petition to force the initiators to move to another place: www.openpetition.eu/bg/petition/...
