Interesting response to Heathrow third runway from Dale Vince: "This is the old economy, it grew 0.1% last year while the green one grew 9%." And good analysis by my colleague Damian Carrington here:

Possibly the largest tree in the Amazon... Over 60m crown diameter! Maybe a Bertholletia excelsa (the Brazil nut tree) tree 🌳

The building sector, are responsible for ~ 39% of emissions globally. Are wooden/mass timber buildings part of the solution?

I love transporting trees on public transport.
It’s good to move this fig to its new home without using a car & also lovely watching people’s intrigued & amused reactions to seeing something incongruously natural & alive in a public space normally denuded of nature.

I’m delighted that so many slow worms are living under a dustbin lid in our tiny city centre garden (photo taken at the end of summer) . So pleased that there are enough invertebrates around to keep them fed and thriving! #wildgarden #urbannature #slowworm

A rare opportunity to acquire this beautifully presented historic, Grade I listed, 25 bed family home. With panoramic views overlooking gardens, lakes and rolling countryside. Would suit owl, woodpecker, Kite, treecreeper, nuthatch, stag beetle ... £Priceless. #protectdyingtrees #trees #nature

In #RavenscourtPark near #Hammersmith, the "Baobab" Plane tree has mystified people for decades. Here's some of the photos I've found of it through the years from 1932 onwards as it appears to grow down, and outwards.
