VICTORY! Government to open up the Land Registry - bringing to an end a thousand years of secrecy shrouding who owns England. I’ve been campaigning for this for ten years: the new Land Use Framework, published later today, makes it government policy. 1/ www.theguardian.com/environment/...

🍃A big day today as Tir Natur, Wales' biggest (and only large) rewilding project is live. I've been critical of some rewilding projects in the past, and will continue to be where I see a need. I'm going to try and explain why I've been volunteering to help this project, and why it's important (1/N)

“The FUW [Farmers' Union of Wales] remains fundamentally opposed to rewilding, given the clear evidence of the ecological harm and economic risks it poses" Same article: this image of the landscape they're describing, prior to its purchase for rewilding. Think the FUW needs some new arguments.

‘The job of a lifetime’: Line of Duty to return for seventh season

I’ve always considered crypto a purely speculative investment, and despite being financially literate I still don’t understand the fundamentals. Everyone say they make money on it, but what happens when no one makes money on it

Watching Labour MPs take a wrecking ball to nature makes me so angry & so sad. Their action tonight voting down amendments to the #PlanningBill intended to protect wildlife & habitats from destruction is so reckless & so counterproductive. People didn’t vote Labour for this 👇

Our National Parks are at risk. ⚠️ From the rugged Lakes to the sweeping South Downs, these landscapes define us and our future. They sustain wildlife, communities and our wellbeing - and they must be protected. A future that puts them at risk isn't what anyone voted for.

We can’t afford to weaken National Park protections ⚠️ But there are rumours that some in Westminster want to remove the Protected Landscapes duty - the only real power to secure action for nature We can't let 30 years of campaigning go down the drain https://bit.ly/48OseaX

Climate change is already damaging the nature, beauty and heritage we care for. Without deep and sustained cuts to emissions, nature faces an even more perilous future and the places people love will continue to suffer. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🥾 Just shy of 200 people joined us up at Moscar Moor today to mark the start of the shooting season and united around our call for this huge grouse shooting estate in the Peak District to be taken into community ownership.

Please support if you can. This is one of the loveliest places in the UK, wonderful for walking, right on the Wales/Shropshire border. Close to my heart. Thank you. 💚

Can you help the Middle Marches Community Land Trust raise 45,000 pounds to buy five acres of botanically rich meadow at the foot of Corndon Hill? The site has been looked after by the present owners for 23 years, but they now need to sell. So many of these wonderful meadowlands have been lost 😢

Hi everyone, this is a new account and it's for Shropshire Badger Group ... we'll give Bluesky a go and see how easy it is for us to manage alongside our other accounts but it would be great if you could follow us #badger #badgers #wildlife #wildlifephotos #wildlifephotography #mammal #mammals

In what must be a first, the govt has tripled the size of a National Nature Reserve and included a Community Land Trust as an Approved Body which owns ans is actively buying land within the reserve. www.gov.uk/government/n... cc @guyshrubsole.bsky.social

Just buying a couple o cards can help buy the meadows

These Coldplay concerts are getting out of hand.

Reform mayor Andrea Jenkyns tells Times Radio that she doesn’t believe climate change exists, and that it’s just a “racket” for some people to make money. If Reform win the next election, the UK could become a very different place quite quickly.

🥾 Visiting Moscar, a grouse moor bordering Sheffield owned by the Duke of Rutland. 🪶 People were angry at the sorry state of the land, due to it being managed for grouse shooting at the expense of all other life 💷 We’re offering the Duke £1 to take it off his hands as it is in such a poor state.
