I love my garden! The vibrant colours of viper's bugloss, poppies, ox-eyed daisies, corncockles. Plenty of bees but where are the butterflies? There are so few after the earlier peacocks and holly blues. @sussexwildlife.bsky.social @katebradbury.bsky.social

Oh no, one of the buzzards has died. It looks recent. Is it a young one? It must be too early for this year. Could it have fallen out of the nest? I have forest school on Saturday so good to check the site first. Another dead bird in Ovingdean @katebradbury.bsky.social @sussexwildlife.bsky.social

Wow! 2 male blackbirds were having a proper fight on the ground just now then moved it into the hedge. I think the one on the shed roof has lost the territory

Came across this small hedge of blackthorn, fizzing with life, a frenzy of buzzing insects, and the delicate fragrance of the blossom was delightful. What a shame it was the only hedge for miles in the almost baron wasteland on that part of the South Downs. Some skylarks singing otherwise silence

This clearly spells out the insurance risks of the climate emergency for society as a whole, and yet our political leaders refuse to take action against FF. Idiots. Thanks for highlighting this @rupertread.bsky.social

Climate, Risk, Insurance: The Future of Capitalism
CO₂ emissions directly increase the amount of energy trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere. This is not a vague or future issue—it is physical reality.

Energy experts, if you have a small 2-bed house/flat and want to be gas boiler-free, how does a ASHP system compare to an infrared hot water/heating system with an infrared rads in rooms where needed. 🧵

Already moved two dead or dying queen bumblebees from the cycle path by the South Coast Road. They've only just come out of hibernation and already they're being killed by speeding cars. It's so tragic. What can be done?

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Just watched the harrowing #NoOtherLand Best Documentary Oscar Winner on #C4. Such heartless cruel barbarity by the Israeli state on a people who are just trying to live as best they can under such a vile system of apartheid. We know this but we'll forget. We need to remember, and remember.

I went to the demo the last time Trump came to the UK. Let's hope the invitation is revoked but if not, I'll definitely be going to the next one - it'll be huge! And everyone who lines the streets as he goes past to silently turn their backs on him. He'd hate that stoptrump.org.uk/petition-can...

On Sunday,while I was in my Brighton garden, I heard the most beautiful call of a curlew passing overhead. What an experience! I recorded it on the Merlin app but don't know how to upload it onto here. Any help gratefully received. @sussexwildlife.bsky.social @katebradbury.bsky.social

Thank you to the Government. It’s official: It has done what we were calling for and put support for community energy into its Great British Energy Bill.

Has anyone else been in floods of tears over this pledge to drill all the oil and gas out of the ground? And stop EV manufacture. I know I will have to get myself together to do the right this for planet and people but at the moment I am really upset

Have you got a heat pump? If so, the 'set and forget' advice is a myth, writes Matt Traverso (with much data) for The New Climate. You do still need to setback. (Although this may be more about 'copypasta' than wilful misinformation) 🔋💡🔌
