What's with this 'Carlisle Garden Village' nonsense? Destroying nature for what will be "as large as 10,000 homes"

Supertrawlers Are Taking Antarctic Krill That Whales Depend On
Due to the growth of factory fish farms, supertrawlers as long as football fields now work the same space as krill-eating whales
It is completely unsustainable to empty the seas of krill so vital for our beleaguered wildlife

Liverpool’s Calderstones are older than Stone Henge.

They are the remains of a Neolithic chambered tomb (a burial monument) built around 4,000–3,000 BC - making them Liverpool’s oldest known monument.

Originally part of a larger dolmen or passage grave, they were moved over time and are now protected inside Calderstones Park.

The stones have prehistoric carvings like spirals, cup-and-ring marks, and other designs - is anyone familiar with these designs?

NEW ACTION 🐙🚫

Stop the world’s first octopus factory farm!

Nueva Pescanova applied to the Las Palmas Port Authority to build this farm - but they have not provided the detailed Environmental Impact Assessment in time.

British pollinators. What a workforce ! Without this amazing team there would be no gardens or food for that matter. We must do our best to look after them, teach our kids they are friends and build habitats to show them how loved they really are.

River Wye granted rights in UK first that could help in fight against pollution 💚

The entire catchment of the River Wye has been formally recognised as a living ecosystem with intrinsic rights in a charter, a UK first that campaigners hope will help save the highly polluted river.

The charter was celebrated at a community event at the Hay-on-Wye literary festival on Sunday.

It includes the right to flow, to biodiversity, to be free from pollution, to be supported by a healthy catchment, to regenerate, and the right to be represented, described as a “significant step” towards protecting and restoring one of the UK’s most beloved rivers.

Herefordshire and Powys county councils have already implemented the charter and it is expected to be adopted soon by Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire, covering the entirety of the Wye’s 130-mile course from its source in the Cambrian mountains in mid Wales to Chepstow and the Bristol Channel.

Jackie Charlton, the county council’s cabinet member for a greener Powys, said: “The River Wye is central to our environment, communities and heritage. By adopting this charter, we are making a clear statement that the river’s health matters and must be protected.

"This is about working together with partners and communities to restore the river and safeguard it for generations to come.”

Millions of salmon deaths at Scottish farms disclosed after watchdog’s ruling @guardian

“Millions of fish deaths caused by accidental poisoning and suffocation on Scottish salmon farms have been revealed after the inspection agency was forced to share its reports”
Utterly #horrific and #unacceptable
Who is accountable for these deaths?

Huge rise in factory-style dairy farming of ‘battery cows’ in UK as costs rise @guardian
“Investigation finds number of dairy farms where cows cannot go outside has more than doubled since 2015”
“We managed to ban battery eggs; why not battery cows? It is shameful that we subject cows … to these conditions of cruelty & confinement.”

@PenrhosSave NOTING FROM THE REPORT:-
Coed Cadw, the Welsh Woodland Trust, said coastal towns were among the worst affected with HOLYHEAD, Anglesey, judged to be a place where 100% of its urban population faced health and environmental risks due to its low tree cover.
Penrhos is in Holyhead

ONLY A NUMBER, NEVER A NAME
Consider the existence of factory farmed animals - cruelly caged and confined, hidden in vast sheds out of sight and mind
Chickens with more space in the oven, rabbits that can’t even hop, sows that can’t turn around
The greatest abuse of animals in the world happening on our watch!!
What has happened to our humanity?
