Following on from my post about my husband rescuing toads from under a grate.
So many wild creatures perish from dropping into drains & cattle grids, but I learned from @thenorfolkcoast.bsky.social that councils can install wildlife gully ladders.

Australian Winter Olympic athletes (in blue and highlighter green) wearing respirator masks as they board their bus to the Opening Ceremony.
a group of american athletes all masking in respirators at a press conference.
so many respirators on olympians faces; just because youâre not a professional athlete doesnât mean that you n those around you donât have something worth protecting too.
Donald Trumpâs agents are untrained, unqualified, unprofessional, and dangerous.
Itâs time for them to stop their assault on American cities.
Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

For decades, the âGuga huntâ, on Sula Sgeir has been defended as sustainable, harmless, and woven into cultural heritage. But the science emerging today tells a very different story.

The PCR positivity map is out, and UKHSA is reporting another drop to 3.3% in England.
Taking into account all the areas that aren't reporting, we make that 4.38%.
That's more in line with 4.19% in Scotland (where there's much more reliable reporting).

A screenshot of a quote by famous Indigenous Activist Leonard Peltier. Itâs black writing over a worn aged brown background with an old native drawing in the bottom right corner. The quote text says: âI donât know how to save the world. I donât have the answer. I hold no secret knowledge as to how to fix the mistakes of generations past and present. I only know that without compassion and respect for all earths inhabitants, non of us will survive. Nor will we deserve to.â
Native Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier pointing out the truth. However,
Respect for all earths inhabitants?some of them make it very fucking hard.
When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter âstory selectionâ and âother types of output, such as dramaâ, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left?
All the shifts are in just one direction.

You wouldn't blow tobacco smoke in the faces of people with cancer. But if you don't take precautions to avoid people with cancer catching Covid, that's what you're doing.
An absolute masterclass in how the UK media platforms and normalises far right politics. This is how Farage wins.

1. Infuriatingly, here in the UK, the government still seems to believe that the only way of introducing trees is to plant them (see, for example, the current Land Use Framework consultation).
News just in: trees can self-seed, which could be why they've survived for 360m years. đ§”
We are have updated our research into which garden plants attract the most pollinators. Our original research included 5 years of data. We then moved house so this is now 9 years of data over 2 different locations.

Cutting benefits for disabled people will push more people into poverty and make it harder for them to get into work.

Expanding aviation is massively inadvisable! Current predictions are that by 2040 it will be 27% of all our UK emissions. Where's the sense in that?
Flying is a luxury, not a human right.
Putting in mitigations to protect staff and patients from airborne diseases like Covid and flu is imperative. Hepa filters and far UV should be standard in hospitals, as they are in Govt and military buildings in the U.K. Prevention is better than cure - or no cure, if you develop Long Covid.
