I think I have used that phrase 4 times today.
There is hope yet.

Got to be the mole cricket.
One day I will see a live one and be able to cross it off my bucket list.
I wonder if it would ever be suited to a UK reintroduction project..... it would certainly impact the evening soundscape!

Have you spoken to Mammoth cinema about a showing?

What part of the world are you in? (You don't need to be specific)
Around here I would ask people like my wildlife trust or the bumblebee conservation trust.
In his book "garden jungle" Dave Goulson ends with a list of his best plants (For England).

Seed bombs aren't quite as literally as they sound. It's usually basically mud and some seeds. If thrown up in the air it might give you a metre square. Better crumbled and scattered for wider.
Better just get a big pack of native mixes and sprinkle across.

But not pet fur if you regularly use spot on style flea treatments!

What's the difference between the 2 Spotify accounts for the podcast, please? One says educational. Have all the keywords been removed from the other to make it uneducational. Thanks! (Followed both for now)

I was very excited to show my kids a toad at a nature reserve. Just sitting there. Looking a bit flared nostrilled.... yeah... full of maggots. Very very grim. That was the day I, too, learned of the toad fly.

When milk alternatives can only easily be bought in tetrapaks which are not kerb-side recycled, whilst milk bottles are one of the easiest plastics to recycle, I wonder if those statistics are still true.
Was packaging included in this data do we think?

Oh - and a good half of the articles seem to be Australian- though I am definitely on the UK edition - not quite sure if that's me or just that you duplicate a lot of Australian content.

Is there a way to read each days "as a paper"; virtually flick through a day's edition?
Or a news feed where all stories are shown in published order so you can see what you've already looked at vs new articles?
If not, I'm afraid this will be a 1 month subscription only. Too frustrating. Sorry.

Not asteroid relevant.
I have the guardian app. I'm trying to reduce fbk use. I subscribed to access more content.
I'm just seeing the same articles all the time and hopefully picking out new things in the middle here and there. It's not satisfying at all.

I think the parallels with "Don't look up" are so high that hearing about an actual asteroid just makes your brain trip a fuse into: it IS just a movie. Cool. I'll watch to the end then go get a snack.
Otherwise: Dark humour for dark times. Otherwise it's too easy for fear to become overwhelming.
