It's important we're honest about what a transition to net-zero means if we're to get it right - it means mining a greater variety of raw materials than ever before

The cave lion was a big animal, bigger than modern lions. Bones of the impressive hunter have turned up at numerous sites in Britain - mostly in the south. #extinctirishanimals #irishwildlife #extinction #rewilding #paleoart

Really pleased with this month's cover, featuring art by Johnny Bandura. His portraits commemorate the Indigenous children who died in Canada's residential schools from the 1980s-1990s. With words by @HadaniDitmars

This really isn't the definition of a hypocrite – you would only be a hypocrite if you tried to persuade other people not to eat meat and then did it yourself. But in any case - is every 'environmentalist' who drives, flies, eats an almond or buys a new T-shirt also a hypocrite?

[PETA @peta]

If you care about the climate crisis but still eat meat, which fuels it, you’re a part of the problem. #COP26

BIG NEWS 🚨 #COP26 climate pledges mean Glasgow is getting closer to Paris!

New @IEA analysis shows that fully achieving all net zero pledges to date & the Global Methane Pledge by those who signed it would limit global warming to 1.8 C

A big step forward, but much more needed!
