@ClivedenNT we have booked for Friday and live 4 miles away, is that defined as local? Thanks
Have you wondered where all the birds have gone? Temperatures are falling and wildlife will be recognising and adapting to these changes 🍁🍂 Take a look at our new blog post to find out more wildmarlow.org.uk/blog.php

Will you help us ban the import of sharks fins into the UK? Sharks are in a lot of trouble, and we’re currently allowed to import up to 20kg personally. We’ve got 4 days and we need another 19,000 signatures. Please please support and share!!! petition.parliament.uk/petit…

A sad day for UK wildlife Government allows over 70,000 badgers to be shot in largest ever cull announced. How many to be tested for bovine TB? Almost none! Is this way you treat a protected species in UK? Vaccinated badgers paid for by taxpayer will be shot - a National Disgrace
🦡🦡😢 We are devastated that the government has done a u-turn on promises to end badger culling. More than 70,000 healthy badgers will be shot this autumn in the government’s largest ever seasonal cull, including Derbyshire. Read more 👉 bit.ly/2FapDwu 🦡🦡😢

Putting the environment in the hands of this government is like asking King Herod to babysit. It’s tragic!
Every year, 1 plant species per English county goes extinct. And thanks to the governments reforms in the planning system, the nationally scarce Maiden Pink may be next for South Lancashire, where it’s last native site, Ainsdale Hope School, is under threat from development 😡😭

I’ve seen the devastation of it at one my local @BBOWT reserves, it’s so sad to see and so costly for the trust to manage when times are hard financially as it is 😔 however it is interesting to see how the habitats will change where woodland is opened up by tree loss
This week our focus is on #trees and specifically #ashdieback. Ash dieback will kill up to 95% of ash trees across the UK. At a cost of billions, the effects will be staggering. It will change the landscape forever and threaten many species which rely on ash (The Woodland Trust)

Typical Conservative government blaming the ecological aspect of the planning system, so backward thinking!
How on earth did we end up with such an incompetent leader? Have they learned nothing from the origins of Covid-19?

The PM in his "build, build, build" speech has just said “The newt counting delays in our system are a massive drag on the productivity and the prosperity of this country” It is a fundamental mistake to view species and environmental protections as a drag on our economy.

PLEASE STOP astroturfing or paving your front garden! We are in a biodiversity and climate crisis. There are lots of ways that you can create a low maintenance, nature friendly and attractive front garden. #RewildYourGarden #MeWilding scotlandbigpicture.com/Store

"...a leaked memo instructed ministers to have “no specific policy” on animal welfare in US trade talks". 'No specific policy'! If true, this would represent a monumental breaking of a promise that has been made over and over again by multiple ministers theguardian.com/politics/202…
