Government should buy and get @IrishRainforest in to rewild it for us

[The Bee Guy @the_beeguy]

Spoiler alert:
To sleep on a flower may appear romantic and magical but the reality can seem more tragic than magic for the bumblebees involved.

Flower sleeping #bumblebees are primarily males.
They don’t have a dad.
Once mature, males leave the nest and never return.

Great chance to repair stuff. And if you have nothing to repair, pop along for a coffee, and maybe help repair something for someone else.

[Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland @WildlifeRI]

We are currently seeking a new and hopefully permanent site for our hospital. We have admitted around 2,500 animals since February with a release rate of nearly 50%, which shows the need for a facility like ours in this country.

[Organic Trust @organictrust]

Change is key if we are to avert the climate crisis we have created. Today, we can swap our purchases to organic or local/Irish organic. We can buy from our local organic retailer. We can educate ourselves on the benefits of organic. Every change helps. What will you do?

Hi Twitter friends I had a big order and they've cancelled.
They ordered 200kg high quality vegan & gluten free chocolate covered hazelnuts.
Is anyone is interested in buying high quality vegan and gluten free chocolate covered hazelnuts?
Thanks from this small business owner.
