Success – an important win for nature! 🐝
Today, the UK Government made the only sensible choice - listening to the science and upholding the ban on neonicotinoids.
This pesticide doesn’t belong in our countryside. Farmers now need support to adopt nature-friendly alternatives.

Just 1 teaspoon of neonicotinoids can kill 1.25 BILLION bees.
Yesterday, over 1 million voices told the UK Government: stop allowing banned pesticides in our countryside.
DEFRA, it’s time to end ‘emergency’ use.
Protect pollinators vital to nature's recovery & our food security.

A deeply disappointing government response to @wildjustice.bsky.social’s petition on banning driven grouse shooting, that even cites bullshit stats from the shooting industry

Happy Winter Solstice to all in the northern hemisphere.
The turn of the year's tide, a pivot-point, a day of hope—when the dark stops rising & after which the Sun begins its slow climb back.
A day I celebrate more than Christmas or New Year.
Fiat lux!

I really needed to hear this. Of course, I've barely noticed the sunset because I haven't actually seen the sun in weeks, so it's swings and roundabouts I guess.
Just a reminder, as you look outside and notice it's already getting dark 😱, that today is the earliest sunset of the year (15:51 in London). From tomorrow the sunsets slowwwwly start getting later again. (Sunrises don't start getting earlier until Dec 30th hence solstice on 21st.) YOU ARE WELCOME.
