Cutting England’s #NatureFriendlyFarming budget is an absolute disaster for nature & wildlife & totally self-defeating & short-sighted for the economy. Our prosperity depends on the natural world. I hope Govt can be persuaded to reverse this terrible idea https://t.co/1nAUwaIgzK

Good to see new Foreign Secretary @DavidLammy heading to ASEAN foreign ministers' meeting. If the new government wants to enhance its relationships in the Global South, ASEAN is a great start as one of the developing world's most important and successful regional organisations.

The next time someone claims that concern over biological invasions is misguided because "Nature isn't static and species ranges have always changed", think about how the same misleading argument is used to downplay human-driven climate change ("the climate has always changed").

Quote: "The global dispersal of a relatively small number of non-native species resulted in a remarkable change in biogeographic realms". Another intriguing study supporting Charles Elton's (1958) assertion that invasions are breaking down Wallace's realms
