3 years since I wrote this. Finally Defra's announced it'll move to ban lead in ammunition after a 3-year transition.
A win for the environment & food chain. Expect those with vested interests to lobby & seek to dilute the legislation as much as possible

We all recognise smoking kills , that's why tobacco ads were banned in 2002 . Fossil fuels kill too & according to a study in BMJ , cause 5.1 million deaths per year .

We've focussed on the big names , Shell , Exxon , BP , but these companies are run by people . People who hide behind those brands to keep their anonymity
These corporations , and their leaders , are committing ecocide & they must be held accountable

The annihilation of great white sharks has led to an increase in seals, etc, and an associated decline in the fish that those species feed on, illustrating the ripple effect of losing a top predator.
When will we learn?
Ecosystems just don't work without top predators.

Water Bill being debated today in the House of Commons. Kingfishers and Caddisflies want to know if your MP will be there? Still not too late to email them
After a tip-off from a wild camper, we went to investigate a recent moorland burning incident on Dartmoor this weekend.
It's in an SSSI & SAC, on peat over 40cm deep, & on land belonging to... Alexander Darwall.
So did @naturalengland.bsky.social, DEFRA and Darwall give permission for this burn?
Good news that @wildjustice.bsky.social have been given all 5 grounds to challenge the lawfulness of a planning decision by Pembs Coastal National Park Authority.
We travelled to Cardiff to hear the renewal hearing. Some members of @cadwceibwr.bsky.social joined and the wildlife came too 🦭
Stop eating bats.
That 23% drop in the number of English farms from 2005 to 2023 is worth unpacking a bit, because the data tell a completely different story to the ones the Lib Dems want you to believe.
Farms are measured according to size of farmable land, with the smallest farms measured being less than 20ha 🧵1/6
The Republican Party of Ronald Reagan belongs to Russia now.
Prof Dominick Spracklen just explained on @channel4news.bsky.social how reintroducing 167 wolves in the Scottish Highlands could reduce red deer population enough to boost woodland regeneration, leading to 1 million tons of CO2 sequestred per year.

Thank you to the RSPB @rspb.bsky.social for your recent support for our petition to ban driven grouse shooting.
Our stances on this subject differ, but we agree that illegal killing of birds of prey & burning of peatland need to stop.
This support helped us cross 60k signatures. Thank you! 1/3

Stuck ambulance.
Banned in household pipes in 1970, angling in 1986, paint in 1992 and fuel in 2000, yet still being served up in your dinner in 2025. Because shooters dont care enough to stop using lead and Government won't stop them.

Outrageous comments from Trump on Gaza. Vital that this does not disrupt ceasefire process. Palestinians need self determination not takeover. UK govt must recognise Palestinian statehood ASAP.
