Today is International Day for Women in Maritime.

To mark the occasion, we caught up with @PaddyEstridge, Founder of @SeaweedGen, who shares her thoughts on gender imbalance in the industry and the underlying opportunities for women:

1. There are a number of similarities between what has been happening to the crustacean population along the south coast and the NE, notably the connection with sediment, but there are crucial differences.

An amazing #WildFlowerHour to close what felt like a very springlike day! Lovely to see so many gorgeous flowers & their #sepals, that was a great @wildflower_hour challenge set by the fabulous @botany_beck! I wonder what she'll choose for the next challenge? See you next Sunday!

… citizen projects such as @darwintreelife, @CapturingRCoast rely on external experts, but also old friends! #PMNHS2023

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff.

Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?

A superb event today. Really proud to have co-organised it & the presentation by @NickMarriner1 was so engaging & informative.

Was also a pleasure to invite local environmental organisations to showcase their public events, campaigns & volunteering.

Same time next year, Nick?

Absolutely wild! And unprecedented ⚡: When the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted in January 2022, it triggered 5,000 lightning events in the first 5 minutes. Within six hours that number climbed to 400,000! Nothing like it recorded before https://t.co/akaVqbEXHK

🚲🚲 What a success story ➡️

Compared to 2019, almost twice as many people now live near a high-quality cycle route in London 🇬🇧.

Latest @TfL data shows that levels of cycling increased by 40 %‼️

Build it 🚲 and they’ll come👇👇

A scientist has found that 53 sea creatures previously though to be silent can actually communicate, including sea turtles that sing from within their egg to synchronise hatching 🎶 🐢🥚
