🐾 Linford Lakes Nature Reserve - probably the richest wildlife site in #MiltonKeynes - is again threatened by developers, so there's a Public Inquiry on 5 Sept 2023. Local naturalists have defended the site for 7 years; please see what's happening at: https://t.co/u0Bym7HQrT

@MKClimateNature @BBOWT @bucksbirdclub @BucksMKERC @wildlifebcn @cprebucks @ActionBucks @mkgreens @BEAG_Tweets @CPREBeds Stop all building on the remaining green fields surrounding #MiltonKeynes, or there will soon be none left.
@WeTweetTOWN's redevelopment of Agora in Wolverton is a much better approach.

Well done to @BBOWT and @WestBerkshire for this innovative project teaching children how keeping themselves healthy can help the natural world.

How helpful is it to scare someone who is already scared about #ClimateChange?

33 years after repeated government sponsored consultations to increase language study in English, and its achieving a major place in the National Curriculum… Ofsted pretend it never happened.

Undoubtedly, 'we need a proper national conversation about the kind of society we want to live in, and the real risks and difficult trade-offs we face in the years ahead' as @steviesmith66 of @CUSP_uk writes for @ConversationUK ✅

This lesson is about #health and fitness and young people’s lifestyles. In it, students will reflect on their own lifestyles, read a text about UK teenagers, do a fitness survey, and design a campaign to encourage young people to be more active.

During the Covid crisis it was Britain’s health system that failed the resilience test - because the reduction in beds has gone too far, leaving hospitals with too little spare capacity.

Qualitative Research is so powerful to carry out. Seems so significant when several/all interviewees, without any prompting, express the same points or raise the same issues.

Activists like @WindrushWasp in Oxfordshire are taking on England’s sewage-spilling water firms – and winning.
Is there a similar community river group in #MiltonKeynes or #Buckinghamshire?
