Look what the UK government slipped under the table while we were distracted.
There's a very good reason why neonicotinoid pesticides should never be used in agriculture. They are devastating to a wide range of life.

The final sentence of new IPCC report:

"The scientific evidence is unequivocal: climate change is a threat to human well-being and the health of the planet.
Any further delay in concerted global action will miss a brief and rapidly closing window to secure a liveable future."

@Jochurchill_MP Agreed. Hope you went to Clear to Sea! Also, please could you ask parliament to un-suspend visa applications for asylum seekers from Ukraine?

@joey_vegan This looks so good. Would love to read about how you made it tandoori. We had seitan chicken burgers tonight

@FlowerdewBob One of the most common uses of GMO seems to be the ability to then spray glyphosate everywhere which is to me worse than the genetic modification itself

@SawyerLuLu @_Roquette It's like all penguins are birds but not all birds are penguins

@JamiEllaG @Emlougar Definitely! We can give consent, a cow can't (and most likely wouldn't even if they were capable of doing so)

@knittaphd I feel this as a first born of 4 so strongly! Maybe a move to the woods is in my future...

@BrokeBritVeg No but now I'm co-sleeping with a baby in the bed I'm not supposed to have the covers up above my waist so if a jumper doesn't cut it then I'll boost the heating on my phone at 2am (all praise the hive)

@fretfulfeminist Oh awesome! I'll DM you the link to the group (honestly I feel like a recruiter at this point 😅) I bought a new tent too so it's made of recycled plastic so I justified it to myself...

@EthicalVegnLife @PaulaSimone Aw I love that she looks just as grumpy in both ❤️

Well this is going on the food list for next week! #veganhour

@FaithVegans He's not on twitter I'm afraid! He goes along with what I'm doing in the house but wouldn't call himself vegan... He's understands the arguments logically but hasn't connected with them emotionally yet I'd say.

@veganrecipebowl @sainsburys Do you think the supermarket own brand plant milks are all pretty much the same as each other / made in the same factory? I'm on Asda oat barista this week and it's pretty good too!

@VeganChatRoom Well now I want to know who your personal vegan chef is
