@njholderness @WWF Or try the @impactscoreapp to find out what brands are using sustainable palm oil.
Also have a look at the @ActforWildlife Sustainable Palm Oil Shopping List from @chesterzoo: https://t.co/Qlv6qTqbHf

Good advice #deforestationFree

[Orangutan Land Trust🦧 (also on Bluesky) @orangulandtrust]

@njholderness DYK, orangutan experts & NGOs DON'T advocate a blanket boycott of palm oil?
Far better to demand #DeforestationFree #Sustainable #PalmOil.

I am conscious of how many people are eating vegan conveniece foods thinking they are helping the planet. Sadly, much of this food contains palm oil #sayNOtoPalmOil #deforestation #PalmOil #vegan #VeganForTheAnimals

Topping the list of depressing news today is the fact that a plastic bag and sweet wrappers have found in the deepest place in the ocean https://t.co/lWqYfbepYa

Received a present from India in this gift bag. What a wonderful way to reuse paper. #lesswaste #reuse #noplastic #plasticfree #homemade

"This is criminal... for goodness sake, stop."

That was intensive care specialist Professor Hugh Montgomery's message to large groups of people having BBQs in parks today and those working on construction sites.

Correct, glitter cannot be recycled. So back to the drawing board. I guess it's landfill for cards with glitter on them. I don't want to appear ungrateful, but please don't send me cards with glitter on them #plasticpollution

@njholderness @sainsburys Hi Nicola, glitter cannot be recycled so this should removed if possible or glittery cards excluded from recycling (see https://t.co/yxJ4B6rW5V).

[Nicola Holderness @njholderness]

My apologies for a misleading tweet a few days ago @Oxtedbird. Thank you @FSCUK for the update. #FakeNews #recycling

[Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) UK @FSCUK]

@njholderness @sainsburys Hi Nicola, our Christmas card collaboration with Sainsbury's came to an end in 2017 but cards can usually be recycled via kerbside collections or at recycling centres.

[Nicola Holderness @njholderness]

@FSCUK @sainsburys Ahhh, thank you for the update. I didn't realise cards with glitter could be recycled at the curb side. Good to know.

[Nicola Holderness @njholderness]

Wondering how to recycle your Christmas Cards?
@fscuk provides boxes for recycling your Christmas cards and wrapping paper at @sainsburys stores or for online customers, your cards can be collected by your delivery driver.
