'Research shows the UK has just 53% of its biodiversity intact, placing us in the bottom 10% of countries worldwide – and the lowest in the G7. This means that one in six species across Great Britain is now at risk of extinction.'- Sienna Somers, Friends of the Earth www.bigissue.com/opinion/uk-w...

📖New report!
Behavioural science can help Scotland meet its climate goals, but it’s not yet widely used in our policymaking.
This report summarises a roundtable with Scottish Government on key challenges and six projects to trial over the next six months.

🛑Companies must stop using this kind of #greenwashing to sell their products, distracting from the health, environment and justice crisis of plastic pollution and delaying the real solution we know will work: producing less plastic in the first place. 5/5

Tell the Scottish Government to make big businesses act responsibly 🗣️
Your voice is needed to pressure our leaders to end the waste and environmental harm caused by our economy.

A bright blue tile with a green and blue chevron banner across the top and the words “Today wildlife in Scotland got a much-needed reprieve. We’re delighted MSPs voted to remove Part 2 of the Natural Environment Bill, which poses a serious threat to nature through powers that would undermine our most important wildlife protections. This Bill should be a turning point for Scotland’s nature, offering real hope to restore our cherished wildlife. We are one step closer to it being the win wildlife needs, but we must make sure Part 2 is not put back in when it gets to the final stage.”
📢Great news! Today, MSPs voted to remove Part 2 of the Natural Environment Bill, a serious threat to wildlife.
Thanks to everyone who spoke up! 🐦🌱
We’re not out of the woods yet though as it could return. Help us keep the pressure up for the Bill’s final stage: action.rspb.org.uk/page/181323/...
🚨GOOD NEWS: Seabed mining blocked in the Cook Islands thanks to local resistance.
It’s a massive win for Pacific Peoples and communities fighting this emerging threat.
Don’t ever let them tell you people power doesn’t work!
