this is what happens when you don’t recycle your pizza boxes

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

• NHS Hospital Canteen: ‘Single Tuna sarnie’ costing £3.00 for nurses, paid for out of their own wage

• Houses of Parliament: ‘Rum banana tarte tatin with rum and raisin ice cream’ for the princely sum of £2.37 for MPs, paid for by you the taxpayer

Nurses’ fight is our fight.

What fabulous news!

[Elin Thompson @ElinThompson5]

Happy to announce I will be joining @plastictides on their Global Youth Mentor (GYM) program. I will be a mentor for youths across the globe to make a tangible difference in their own community. I can't wait to help future #youthleaders tackle the plastic and climate crisis’!

Cigarette butts are the most common type of litter found in the ocean. Because the filters are made of plastic, they break down into thousands of tiny pieces, but don’t degrade. https://t.co/AweR6PsrzQ

I just took part in the #BigPlasticCount, UK’s biggest investigation into household plastic waste. Here’s what really happens to my plastic waste:

♻️9% recycled
🌍12% sent abroad
🔥51% burnt
⛰️28% sent to landfill

This is shocking, right?! @Jochurchill_MP @pow_rebecca @Becaaa

We're proud to be supporters of a new project researching mob grazing. The best use of pasture is essential for the profitability of the sector and for environmental sustainability.

I’ve just emailed Kwasi Kwarteng to tell him to stop the Cambo oil field. As humanity enters code red, we have to stop more climate destruction and make the right decisions for the planet. Email Kwasi now: https://t.co/HogqpLxDmY

[Dr Emily Cooledge @EmilyCooledge]

Spring application complete ✅ 😅 Sward-specific #lamb urine, dung and 50 kg N ha-1 fertiliser applied to the grass-clover and #multispecies exclusion plots. Greenhouse gas and soil measurements to follow. Great team effort to start this #WomenInSTEM #phdchat #livestock #research

[Dr Emily Cooledge @EmilyCooledge]

Bottles of liquid gold... our spring lamb excreta collection is complete!🎉 13.3 litres of urine and 5 kg of dung collected, ready to apply to the field trial on Monday to measure #nitrousoxide emissions and soil N cycling. 🌱🐑☘

[Dr Emily Cooledge @EmilyCooledge]

One of our barren(?!) research sheep missed the memo -- we had a lovely Welsh mountain lamb born during urine collection today! 🎉
Quite a big surprise so back to the drawing board for the field trial 😬 🌿🐑🌱☘ #multispecies #research #lambing2021 #phdchat

[Plastic Legacy in Soil @soilplastics]

#WomenInScience hard at work 💪🏻 Today we've been digging & sieving soil with the help of @ElinThompson5 for our upcoming pot experiment - comparing the effects of different plastic types and concentrations on soil & crop health! #exciting #soilscience #plasticulture

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

An estimated one-third of all food produced in the world ends up as rubbish.
And that one-third is responsible for 8-10% of our emissions of greenhouse gases.

@BellaLack Looks like something from stranger things 😳😳🐣

[Elin Thompson @ElinThompson5]

WHO does this ???

[dominic dyer @domdyer70]

Not only are they risking lives they are back polluting the envionment with their rubbish as well. I despair #COVIDー19

[Elin Thompson @ElinThompson5]

Full boat yesterday 🤙🤙 thanks jaycatheral for the awesome day.
We saw two species of shark, and the most huge fish in huge shoals.
