@CookeSiobhan @katzyna @Mammals_Suck We've appealed for individual donations for many years. Only 0.000015% of our 5.6 million users make a donation per year, which only covers website costs for c.2 days. We 💚your support but unfortunately GoFundMe would likely only be a short term fix.

@CookeSiobhan @Mammals_Suck @tes Due to the licences we are unable share them via CDs or charge a subscription. We put a lot of effort into trying to encourage individual/user donations over the years but there was very little uptake unfortunately.

@AlexJHolt @WildscreenFest Thank you for supporting it.

@GreenBrizzle We're 💔 but we've had no funding for c 5 years & we can't keep plugging the gap. We have/are exploring who we can share the material with but the licences are v restrictive. We'll of course keep a safe copy of this amazing record of life on earth offline in perpetuity.

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@mikamckinnon @eol @NHM_London @IUCNRedList @MacaulayLibrary @inaturalist are all great resources

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@MARspidermonkey Us too 💔

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@CookeSiobhan @Mammals_Suck Thanks for your support. It's our favourite website too. The education resources will be available on @tes for the time being & we hope to put some on https://t.co/RJQvGnyvM5 in the future so teachers and students can still benefit from them.

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@vcuanthprof @DaniRabaiotti Ours too 💔

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@solomilne Thanks for your kind words & support.

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@vcuanthprof @WildscreenFest The education resources will still available on @tes for the time being & we're hoping to move some onto https://t.co/RJQvGnyvM5 over time.

@CatieGR We're 💔. Thanks for your kind words & support. As a charity, we just can't continue without funding to support it.

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@je_light @Mammals_Suck Hiya, you can get in touch with us at [email protected]. We've been working really hard to find funding & technical solutions for a few years now but we have run out of runway.

[Wildscreen Arkive @DummyArkive]

@ColPercyFawcett Hi Emma, we have indeed & have been doing so for the past 5 or so years. We're heartbroken.

@joeparlock Hopefully consumer choice forces energy companies to source from renewables sooner. Vote with your wallet!🤞
