New bird population figures show unbearable decline, especially among farm & woodland species.

So much is riding on the new Environmental Improvement Plan. It must make nature-friendly farming profitable, make polluters pay dearly & reform planning to guarantee space for nature.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

[Guy Shrubsole @guyshrubsole]

It's bananas to slash DEFRA's budget for nature-friendly farming, when big landowners are getting tax breaks worth tens of millions of pounds - for owning grouse moors.

And any cuts to flood defences will quickly come back to haunt the government.

While other councils mandate Swift bricks, @DacorumBC have virtually nothing to help Swifts and other red-listed urban species in their draft Local Plan. Comments made on the consultation were ignored

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

Today, we responded to @guardian story that UK Government is considering allowing the use of a bee-killing pesticide for the 5th year in a row, despite election promise to end use and following an industry commitment to end reliance by 2023.

**No need to seed**. In all of these photos, degraded, formerly farmed ground, recovered itself, quickly, with a species-rich flora with no seeding. Nature did it. Local genetics. Local specialities & rarities. No cost. Something to think on...

[Chloë Edwards @wilderchloee]

@CSLyons 👏🤩💚

Yep...

Nature's often seen as a problem to sidestep in planning.

A shift to strategic planning signaled by @AngelaRayner could help *if* it recognises healthy ecosystems as Critical Natural Infrastructure that warrant investment & space

#30x30 & #LNRSs must be core to strategic plans

[Ruth Chambers @ruthmchambers]

🚀 The govt has announced a rapid review of its environment plan to accelerate action to tackle the dire state of nature.

📖 This is very welcome, esp the commitment to fully involve stakeholders.

🙏 We're excited to help shape the new plan.

Wetlands are so much MORE than just reeds.

At this time of year, they are bursting with colourful flowers that love damp soggy soil, from the unmissable bright Purple Loosestrife to the fluffy clusters of Meadowsweet 🌸🏵️
