1/2 Great to have been involved in two clusters of the #BewareOfAliens awareness campaign developing key messages for key audiences with @atusligo_ie @UK_CEH and @adelphi_berlin. Fantastic resources including including this short video on soil borne #invasivealienspecies produced

#Invasive species can do serious damage to our waterways and to the quality of angling. Good #biosecurity is essential to stop the spread. Please like and share to spread the word, not the invasives! :-)

@BenjaminGearey Mmmm....yes, by definition, they are. But some are badder than others. A lot of work goes into assessing the impacts, both negative and positive, before any action is taken on them. Best to avoid introducing them in the first place. :-)

Invasive alien species drive #biodiversity loss but concerted action can manage their spread & impact. We're working with sectors across Europe to raise awareness: 🦐 Aquatic ornamentals & recreation 🌳 Forests 🦝 Pets 🛻 Soil transport ceh.ac.uk/press/beware-a… #BewareOfAliens
