Been struggling a bit just recently with all the negative things that are happening in the world & the lack of urgency & action being taken to deal with the #Climate Crisis. So it was good to be reminded by Mum and Dad this week about the positive impacts we can have locally 1/3

Nice to see our famous creel Xmas tree making the news bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Here are the North West Highland Beach Cleans group results for November. Another busy month with the stormy weather providing lots of material on our beaches for volunteers to collect. Already past 9 tonnes of rubbish removed for 2025 !

Took part in the latest North West Highland Beach Clean on Saturday. In 5 hours, 18 volunteers removed 332 kg of rubbish from Balchladich beach in Assynt. 63kg of the hard plastic was taken back to Ullapool harbour for recycling in their Fishing For Litter skip.

Photo from my 18t birthday trip out on @CalMacFerries Loch Seaforth to Stornoway. In total we saw 330 Common Dolphins, 9 Minke whales (incl. 2 lunge feeding) & 35 Harbour Porpoise, all recorded on excellent @HWDT_org app Birthday is next week but I will be at Uni by then

@SunnysidePri Too cold for mermaids in Scotland, amazing views of a Thresher. Really happy to be studying in Inverness as will be with people I already know on the course

@FinlayPringle Thresher? Or mermaid? 😁 Jumping with joy at your news about you diving in to your environmental course at uni! Congratulations 🥳 🦈

Happy to report that I have been accepted to study for an Environmental Sciences degree at UHI Inverness starting in September !

Be the awesome person your dog believes you to be. Pick up a few bits of litter on walks to protect animals, communities & the environment. It feels great. 💚🐾 #dogsofx #dogcharity #litter #environment #volunteering #mentalwellbeing #lovedogs

A man has been bitten after catching a sandbar shark on a Florida beach. Our thoughts go out to the shark 🦈. We wish this essential ecosystem engineer a speedy recovery & hope the injuries are not too serious, assuming the shark survived this ordeal.🪝 mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/m…

A nice positive affirming evening at Scottish Southern Energy HQ in Perth for the @poweringfutures award ceremony. This new education initiative recognises attainment as opposed to achievement (passing exams). Very proud to be one of the first recipients of the Ken Muir award.

🚨Scottish seal populations plummet! 🦭 Numbers fell by 20% in 5 yrs on Scotland's west coast, long considered their last UK stronghold Lack of food is likely fuelling the decline. We need a sustainable approach to fishing - now. #EndOverfishing bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

The sign almost bigger than me when I started climate striking on 14 December 2018 !

@WildlifeTrusts @GOVUK @UKLabour Would you expect anything else from the Tory lite party

🦡We are deeply disappointed the @GOVUK has approved the continuation of badger culls despite @UKLabour's own manifesto commitment to end this “ineffective” policy. (1/2)

History will be damning that we mostly left climate activism to children and teenagers.

We get to choose what kind of relationship we have with the ocean 🌊🌎🐠 One choice brings life, beauty, and resilience; the other, devastation 👇

We found a message in an irn-bru bottle on the Isle of Ulva...but what happened next! Watch the video and check out our post on our Instagram @scottishcoastalcleanup

Climate strike week 337 Hopefully the youth movement have succeeded in raising and maintaing awareness about the #ClimateCrisis I will continue to campaign on this issue going forward with the hope that world leaders will eventually listen and take the necessary actio

Climate strike week 337 After 6 and a half years this is my last official Friday #schoolstrike4climate as I have now finished school and will hopefully be going to College to study Environmental Science in September. It's not been easy keeping motivated for such a long time.

Sharks are essential for biodiversity. Here’s how: 🦈 They regulate fish populations 🐟 They prevent prey species from overgrazing habitats 🌿 They protect coral reefs and seagrass beds 🌊 They keep marine food webs in balance

Sharks have ruled the seas for over 400 million years! This #WorldOceanDay, join us in celebrating these ancient ecosystem engineers, essential to keeping the ocean healthy, balanced, and full of life 🌊🦈💙 #TheSharkSwim #UNOC3
