I’m writing an article for a magazine about books by badass female scientists (that have come out in the last year or so) - has anyone read anything really good this year they can recommend?

Another company posting their "Job well done". This sort of thing literally plummets me into a pit of eco-anxiety & hopelessness. An entire garden without a single plant or living surface is not a job well done at all 😞 #Ecocide #BiodiversityCrisis

When I started to work in shark conservation I decided to use positive images. It does not mean I am not aware of the plight of sharks. I use other venues to fight awful practices. I hope that beauty will inspire the desire to protect them

@EnviroClark I think the denial is the scariest part!

[carla chameleon @carlabroom]

I first shared this two years ago, with the latest anti-trespass bills and planned restrictions on nomadic communities, it’s even more scary

A morning litter pick from Lakeside country park, a whole bag full in about half an hour. It’s shocking how much litter is left here @EastleighBC

[carla chameleon @carlabroom]

Spent the morning picking up hundreds of individual wrappers from @ToxicWasteSour - don’t you think it’s about time to stop using this much packaging?
