🍂 Don’t clear away all leaves! Leaf litter provides shelter for insects & food for worms 🪱. Let nature do its thing! #diggingtheearth #wildlifegarden

Kanye West and Bianca Censori on the Grammys red carpet: it's almost like an art installation called "Post-Divorce Kanye’s Enraged Insecurity in an Industry Now Dominated by Women": www.thetimes.com/life-style/c...
Seeing Kanye West and Bianca Censori at the Grammys was heartbreaking
Despite not being invited, the rapper insisted on walking the red carpet with his partner who looked incredibly sad as she took off her coat to reveal her naked body

This shows what can be done in our cities and towns! Please share if you’d like to see more green spaces boosting biodiversity and providing a lifeline for pollinating insects like this fantastic wildflower meadow at @kingscollege.bsky.social at @cambridgeuni.bsky.social. Let’s bring nature back 🐝

Balloon and lantern releases create litter and #plasticpollution in landscapes and seas that can harm the environment, wildlife and livestock. Celebrate special occasions and loved ones by planting trees, wildflowers, or bee and butterfly gardens instead!

Please say no to garden poisons such as pesticides and weedkillers, to help keep them out of the food chain. Hedgehogs, for example, can eat over 100 invertebrates every night.

Please help bees, butterflies and birds by reducing the mowing next year! By leaving a patch of grass in your garden to flower you'll be helping wildlife while reducing effort, cost and carbon emissions. Cartoon courtesy of the wonderful @sepponet.bsky.social

We're losing wildlife. Frogs, butterflies, bumblebees, hedgehogs, moths, bats, insects, birds are all declining. But if more of us take positive actions for biodiversity in our gardens, communities, landscapes and towns, we can help nature bounce back. Who's in?

A bumblebee can only fly for about 40 mins between feeding. But we've lost 97% of our wiłdflower meadows. So each nectar-rich flower you plant in a windowbox or in your garden or community green spaces could be the pit stop that saves a bee 🐝
