Make Nat-Hist films at BBC NHU… watch out for #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge, it’s gonna blow your minds!

[Swamp_Ape_Science @SouthApe]

Season 3 of Prehistoric Planet really makes me want something like this but it's the La Brea Tar Pits fauna.
A story that follows the life of like an American Lion, a Dire Wolf, a Smilodon and maybe a Miracinonyx or a Short Face Bear

When I started filming in British rivers over a decade ago I looked for three things. Clear water, lots of plants and plenty of fish. It's all be impossible to find in today which sickens me given its happened in such a short period.

#Coldplay is the very best scoop of vanilla ice cream you will ever get.
The light show is every topping you could possibly wish for. Bravo 👏🏼

It was the narrowness of the debate that was most shocking. A competition in cruelty about refugees & shameful silence on the Climate Crisis, Gaza, & the economic costs of Brexit. Leaving out other parties from debate is bad for democracy. Me on #BBCDebate for ⁦@BBCNews⁩ 👇

[4 Day Week Foundation @4Day_Week]

For anyone who missed this brilliant bit of news over the weekend:

Unison, the UK’s largest Trade Union, has voted to demand a 4-day week from whoever forms the next government.

“Trade unions fought for an eight-hour day in the 19th century and a two-day weekend in the 20th. In the 21st, it is time to take the next step and win a four-day week with fair pay for all.”

It’s time for a 4-day week. ⏰

Climate change has killed at least four million people. I wrote this because I felt like I was the only one who had noticed. If you ever read and share anything I've written, I hope it'll be this short piece, out today in @NatureMedicine
