@opp_green @aooleary @BBCRareEarth @helenczerski @tomheapmedia I listened to your Papua New Guinea episode. I found it deeply unsettling that Mike Dilger was promoting ecotourism in one breath & in the other acknowledging how intact the rainforest is. They don't work together. Why can't we leave that forest alone- for wildlife to flourish?

We ran S. America 6504 miles to highlight our links with the Amazon! Every choice/acquisition=impacts +/- Eating soyafree 100% grass meat used to restore ecosystems better than eating palmoil biscuits. Transparency. Not cow but how! Eat brazil nuts save rainforest

@BBCRareEarth We ran South America to highlight our links with the Amazon- your programme today! Every choice / thing we buy has an impact. Eating meat that is being used to restore ecosystems is better than chomping on palm oil biscuits. Transparency. Not the cow but the how!

@BBCAnyQuestions @BBCRadio4 I'm screaming at you. Panelists shocked @JustStop_Oil protesters brought the M25 to a halt & that 4 year jail sentences are legitimate. WHAT?!! #Climatechange is causing global death & biodiversity crisis. #righttoprotest @ChrisGPackham @GreenpeaceUK

[Katharine Lowrie @AuchgoyleFarm]

@Unilever why are you rolling back on your green commitments? We’re in a climate &ecological emergency and human rights abuses are rife in your supply chains.

When you’re accused of greenwash, don’t U-turn on your promises, follow through on them. #PlanetOverProfit #stoppalmoil

[The Scottish Rewilding Alliance @ScotRewilding]

Scotland faces climate breakdown and nature loss. But there is hope: we can #rewild, for nature, climate and people. Add your voice to ours and sign the Rewilding Nation Charter. 🖊️Let's make history and declare Scotland the world's first #RewildingNation! https://t.co/Dt3tAPyuT8

[Rewilding Britain @RewildingB]

@ScotRewilding We’re calling on everyone who shares our #rewilding hopes and vision to join with @ScotRewilding 🤝

Scotland is ranked 212 out of 240 countries and territories for the state of its nature. But 150 rewilding sites cover 2% of Scotland – imagine what scaling that up could do!

[Katharine Lowrie @AuchgoyleFarm]

@CharlieRadUK @Sherlock_Pages Hmmm… I can’t think of one… perhaps a possible niche?! Will consult with friends!

Finally a ray of hope for our beleaguered sea birds & fish populations. https://t.co/UGSqLuyset #overfishing #seabirds #biodiversitycrisis @BirdLife_News

[Katharine Lowrie @AuchgoyleFarm]

@GTAlstonWader Oh Wow!!! You lucky blighter!!! Amazing!! Hope you have an amazing time and see everything feathered, haired and scaled!

[Katharine Lowrie @AuchgoyleFarm]

Wonderful. I yearn to visit one day.. either run or cycle there...

Białowieża Primeval Forest has been described as Europe’s Serengeti or Great Barrier Reef. Yet in most circles outside Poland, the forest remains little known.

I’d like to help change that, so here are six reasons why the forest is so precious ⬇️🧵

[Jo Cartmell #RewildTheEarth 🍃💚🍃 @WaterVole]

This is not a 'tirade', but is deadly serious! Water Voles are now close to extinction and one of daily causes is dog disturbance. They are creating a landscape of fear for them. Water Voles should be ubiquitous with several Plops! heard, as they dive into the water ahead of you!

Desperate industry for wildlife and our planet.....

[Ailsa McLellan @AilsaMcL]

Could someone please help provide @GillianMSP (Minister for Energy and the Environment) with evidence that salmon farming has an environmental impact? She 'Doesn't recognize that picture.' There is so much evidence out there I don't know where to start.

Ministers urged not to play culture wars over species reintroductions in England | Biodiversity | The Guardian. Brilliant article. https://t.co/Of46AbqYKk

A great thread on dealing with windblown trees following the recent storms (spoiler: think less 'devastation', more 'opportunity')!

This striking image of a Golden Eagle landing on a deer carcass was captured by a trail camera on Wildland Ltd's Glenfeshie Estate as part of the #CairngormsConnect Predator Project.

@buckleypr2 Oh my, our old 'stomping ground'! Or running ground, Paul. What a magical part of the world.....

My #shitlawn of the day, spotted in Fulham. Note the fake stripes and even the steps are 'grassed', a lovely finishing touch @Shitlawns

[Katharine Lowrie @AuchgoyleFarm]

Such wonderful news! Oh for the howl of wolves again on our islands...
