Dear @RishiSunak,
Please do one good thing in your premiership and scrap tomorrow's bill to allow more North Sea oil & gas licences.
Or call an election now; we've all had enough, nobody voted for you.
Pls RT if you agree.

It’s a nice coincidence to be in Ecuador on the 15th anniversary of their constitutional adoption of Rights of Nature. Not only has it inspired many other RoN interventions around the world, it has also helped protect many important natural sites in Ecuador from destruction

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

For a while I’ve had anxiety about the vast destruction of the Amazon & not knowing what I can do to stop it. Whilst in Ecuadorean Amazon, I’m visiting grassroots & community projects trying to stop rainforest destruction. This 🧵 is about the excellent work of @rainforestsaver

What is the #RightsOfNature approach? Why do we need it in the #UK? How do we bring it to life? Check out our latest blog https://t.co/e0OoSNdxef, written by the brilliant Håkon Evjemo. #law #rivers #trees @garnglobal @RightsOfNature please share!

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

This is brilliant. We need lots more green spaces boosting biodiversity and benefitting pollinating insects like this inspiring wildflower meadow at @Kings_College, Cambridge. Let’s bring nature back 🐝

Nearly 100 years ago scientists developed a basic but cruel test called the 'LD50' . Times have changed but the tests haven't . Please RT and sign the @AnimalAid petition here https://t.co/UqVOEdttR0 Thank you .

[Dave Goulson @DaveGoulson]

Huge crowds in London yesterday for peaceful The Big One #Earthday environmental protest, but sadly little coverage in mainstream media (Guardian excepted). Compare to huge coverage of disruptive events by @JustStop_Oil. What message does this send? #UniteToSurvive

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

Here we go @BBCNews this is what you are missing . . .

The Kunming to Montreal Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework is a positive step towards halting and reversing biodiversity loss. However, adoption alone is not enough. Dr. Joanna Smallwood shares her thoughts on COP15 at https://t.co/pCVnsGjoj7
