Petition: End the Badger cull and adopt other approaches to bovine TB control The Government’s TB Eradication Strategy allows the continued killing of badgers, a protected species, until the end of this Parliament, despite the Labour manifesto calling the cull “ineffective.” W...

If you’re as outraged and sickened as we are by the 200,000+ badgers shot dead thanks to a senseless cull, then please sign the petition.

We’ve just passed 30,000 signatures and need 100k for a debate in Parliament.

A serene landscape featuring two rocky hilltops illuminated by soft sunlight, surrounded by a dense expanse of dark green forest. The scene is under a cloudy sky, casting a mix of light and shadow across the rolling hills and terrain.

Obscured by our most iconic landscapes are 'shadow places': counterpoints to the carefully-curated and bucolic countryside.

Confronting the interwoven demands of nature recovery and ecological literacy requires us to look to the relationships which shape our land - warts and all.

Too right it's Black Friday: our relentless consumption is trashing the planet | Black Friday | The Guardian Growth must go on – and it’s destroying the Earth. But there’s no way of greening it. So we need a new system, writes Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Nature is our life support system. Perhaps we can remember & recognise this by switching off the horrid machine that is Black Friday.

This article by @georgemonbiot.bsky.social is still brilliant & so relevant.

Spending time in a temperate rainforest in Wales last week was a truly magical experience. These forests are so very precious and we must do everything we can to protect and restore them 💚

Finally decided to join this app from twitter 🤩

Anywho - here are some piccies of Papillose Bog-moss (Sphagnum papillosum) from the other day! We’ve been reintroducing the plant across Manchester bogs to help reform one of Britain’s most Endangered habitats - active raised bog 😍🌱

Hello BlueSkiers! I’ve made a starter back of people working on rewilding and similar things in UK and Ireland. Many more to add but it’s a start.

The Labour Party has labelled the badger cull as 'ineffective,' yet they still permit existing cull licences to continue.

Repost if you agree this is unacceptable!
