Very proud to have released my first press release on my masters thesis with the @LooeMCG and @CwallWildlife.

If you want to read about Looe Bay's super #seagrass bed and the project have a read! #marineconservation #plymuni

Help wildlife in hot weather!
It's set to get seriously hot so keep your watering stations, ponds and bird baths topped up with water, and let some of your garden grow wild to provide shade for the animals. ☀️💦

I told my daughter about Sir David Attenborough’s knighthood upgrade. She said ‘instead of knighting him they should listen to him’.

She’s good.

Tree planting with the @DerbysWildlife today - location was beautiful really helps clear the mind! 🌱🌳

Did you know that it is #WorldSeagrassDay? #Seagrass is an incredible habitat, not just for #cuttlefish, but for loads of species! It is also very important for the #environment and #ClimateChange, as it sequesters carbon!

Any teachers or educators looking to include marine conservation in their lessons this could be the resource pack for you! #oysters #seagrass #GCRF

It wasn't just Keith crying tonight #greatpotterythrowdown

Time is running out for our peatlands. Tragically these beautiful places are exploited as peat is extracted and stuck in compost bags.
But it doesn't need to be this way! Today you can demand the Government end this heartbreaking destruction! 😡📣

How to tell people they should leave:

- “What time’s your train?”
- “How long does it take you to get home?”
- “Gosh, is that the time?”
- “It’s so dark”
- “Anyway, it’s been lovely to see you”
- “What are you doing for the rest of the day?”
- “Don’t let me keep you”
- “Right!”

[Rebekah Noakes @beckyynoakes]

Great to be involved with the @EULIFERemedies today. The groups from the @PlymUni and @PlymouthCollege filled ~1200 seed bags today!

I know you can’t make an omelette without smashing a few eggs but what is the carbon footprint of 40,000 people in Glasgow for 2 weeks when probably 2000 at most are actually directly involved in negotiations? People are well meaning but it’s also nuts 🤷‍♂️

Could seagrass be our secret weapon in the fight against climate change? 🍃

There’s no such thing as an “awkward silence”

Silence is lovely.

“Awkward talking” is the worst.

Long live silences!

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

🌊 Seagrass captures carbon 35 times faster than rainforests
🌱 UK peatlands store 3.2 billion tonnes of carbon
🌳 UK woodlands soak up around 21 million tonnes of carbon a year.

There are natural solutions to the climate crisis 👇

I'm thrilled to hear that Plymouth will becoming a national marine park, I couldn't think of a more fitting location

[Britain's Ocean City @britainsocean]

Here's the short film that helped win the grant that will fund Britain's Ocean City's absolutely unique National Marine Park. And what a perfect fit! https://t.co/H16Yy1tywY

[Cuttlefish Conservation Initiative - CCI @cuttle_cons]

How about a #CurrentEventsFactFriday? The UK gov is considering adding #cephlapods to the #animalsentiencebill. CCI would be very thrilled to see this happen, as it may lead to increased protections for #cuttlefish!
