@AmazonUK These two little yobs are persistently parking in our private car park in #Guildford, #Surrey. I wouldn’t care personally, but they’re dumping their rubbish underneath the van and leaving it behind.
Reg included, have a word would you please?
Calling all UK #conservation professionals! Hugely grateful if you could spare 10-15min. Keen to capture all opinions, regardless of any prior knowledge of #palaeoecology. This will help me understand how #palaeo can support conservation🐛 Please share!
