Shallow dishes around gardens, yards & green spaces can be a lifeline to thirsty creatures like #hedgehogs, birds & bees 🦔🐦🐝
Add pebbles where insects can perch & drink too!

Extreme heat is no longer a rare event — it has become the new normal.
I'm experiencing it firsthand in Spain during the Financing for Development Conference.
The planet is getting hotter & more dangerous — no country is immune.
We need more ambitious #ClimateAction now.
By forcibly intercepting and blocking the Madleen, Israel has once again ignored its legal obligations towards civilians in the occupied Gaza Strip. The crew were unarmed activists and human rights defenders on a humanitarian mission.
They must be released immediately and unconditionally. They must also be protected from torture and other ill-treatment.
As the occupying power Israel has an international obligation to ensure civilians in Gaza have sufficient and safe access to food, medicine, and other supplies indispensable to their survival. Instead, and as part of its calculated effort to inflict on Palestinians in Gaza conditions of life designed to bring about their physical destruction, it has consistently and deliberately impeded the provision of impartial humanitarian assistance for civilians in desperate need.
During its voyage over the past few days the Madleen’s mission emerged as a powerful symbol of solidarity with besieged, starved and suffering Palestinians amid persistent international inaction. However, this very mission is also an indictment of the international community’s failure to put an end to Israel’s inhumane blockade. Activists would not have needed to risk their lives had Israel’s allies translated their rhetoric into forceful action to allow aid into Gaza.
States must act now or risk complicity in Israel’s grave violations of Palestinians’ rights.
He's not just threatening Hamas. He says in this video that no one will remain- in other words that he will wipe out or ethnically cleanse 2.1 million Palestinians from Gaza: just listen to his words. This would be an unprecedented war crime and its time for all people who care about human rights and international law and oppose war crimes and the law of the jungle to stand up and oppose the genocide he and his cronies are openly embarking on. I also oppose Hamas but this is not about that- its about mass slaughter and the extinction of a people.

My April blog! This month has been a bumper month for my blog readership. 1795 people in March! So when I think everything is going a wee bit pear-shaped with our beautiful planet, I remind myself that others care too. https://t.co/JGTBYkpLBu📷
