89% thought their national government “should do more to fight global warming”.

“Activate climate’s ‘silent majority’ to supercharge action.” There is huge appetite for action, but decades-long campaigns of misinformation is a key reason the climate majority has been suppressed.

#EARTHDAY was the launch of a global movement. It started with 12,000 demonstrations uniting people across the USA🌍

In this spirit, we’ve chosen today to launch Force for Nature / Nerth Natur - a summer of activity & collective action 🔗 https://t.co/OhxlFoLy0f

So excited about this project funded by @cipsnews to work with 21 public bodies & 21 suppliers on deforestation free food procurement in Wales
Taking steps to remove tropical deforestation off the menu

[Barbara Davies Quy @QuyDavies]

Thank you @CaerphillyCBC for hosting a workshop for public bodies to learn about the importance of tropical forests & assessing deforestation risk in procurement

@MonmouthshireCC shared their Deforestation Free Champion journey & how they've included young people 🌱🙌

@WGClimateChange @huw4ogmore @NatResWales Good news - how much of this flood prevention measures? I.e. nature based solutions @WGClimateChange @huw4ogmore? Upland Ffridd planting, better water rentention in soils and the SFS being particularly important

[Shea Buckland-Jones @Shea_DJones]

Yet another report showing Wales is not moving at the pace & scale needed to address the nature emergency.We know how crucial nature based solutions are for addressing key societal problems like flooding. Crucial few months ahead to make sure the likes of SFS deliver @huw4ogmore

@PaulAbbandonato He ended up spending loads of time with fans as well in the Ricoh suite. FairPlay 👏

[Shea Buckland-Jones @Shea_DJones]

Great news & a big step in the right direction. Seagrass is genuinely a wonder plant, crucial for carbon storage, flood protection, nature, food security & more. Implementation of plans like this will be crucial in getting us towards 2030 GBF targets 👏 @huw4ogmore

[Welsh Government Climate Change @WGClimateChange]

Did you know? One hectare of seagrass can support as many as 4,700 more fish and 28 million more invertebrates than unvegetated habitats 🤩
Just one reason why we've announced extra funding to help restore seagrass meadows with Seagrass Network Cymru https://t.co/pWDo5KfCTD

[Shea Buckland-Jones @Shea_DJones]

Great article. I hope lessons can be translated to the SFS i.e resource can’t be sucked up in the universal layer of SFS, we need ambitious optional/collab layers for nature, climate & farmers (particularly upland hill farmers) @huw4ogmore https://t.co/weRa3lQBD0

[Barbara Davies Quy @QuyDavies]

Join a fantastic team & help amplify the voices of indigenous and local communities who are protecting tropical forests around the world & those taking action in Wales💚

[Wildlife Trusts Wales @WTWales]

Farmers hold the key to tackling climate change and biodiversity loss. But without adequate funding or ambitious policies, progress will stall. 🌍🌱
