@Humanists_UK @thameswater @stwater Maybe water companies should spend less time on this quackery and more time cleaning up the shit in our rivers. You can detect that using something called a ‘nose’.

[Ivan Clark @icplanner99]

A great scheme and a superb opportunity for graduates!

[NatureScot @NatureScot]

Our Working with Rivers scheme is a finalist in the @LantraScotland Awards! It's great recognition for this exciting programme, which is now open for new applications.

These paid graduate placements offer valuable experience in #NatureRestoration skills.

@andyheald @Edinburgh_CC @TiCLme They made it out of an old Nightingale hospital they had lying around apparently so its probably net zero. To be fair, the World Heritage site needed a bit of a spruce up. They only thing I’ve got against this is that its even harder to park on George Street now.

[Ivan Clark @icplanner99]

@JeanetteHall9 @collieennis Those snakes on that plane. You’d never see that in real life.
