@Shitlawns @MelJStride I support this ban, and hope government will act to control spread of plastic grass in planning law.

Allowing astroturf to continue to be laid at the current pace could have disastrous long term consequences for us, our wildlife and our planet. Here are the petitions again if you have not seen them: Ban: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6014… Ecological Damage Tax: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6082… 3/4

Thank you to all that got behind the petition to ban, and the alternative petition to tax astroturf. Both have reached 10k signatures and will now be responded to by UK Government... 1/4

Get yourself a girl who sprinkles Dandies on @Shitlawns 😂😂 #WildflowerHour #BanAstroturf

@SallyArchibald @NdoniMcunu @Mtho_Moyo @FutureEcoAfrica How terribly terribly shocking and sad, in the couple of days we spent together it was clear @NdoniMcunu was a very bright flame and I was looking forward to getting to know her better. Huge condolences to all her family and friends, I'm so very sorry for your loss.

Thanks to @SallyArchibald and @laurap18 for convening such an inspiring workshop to kick things off. Looking forward to working with you and learning from you in the coming years!

So exciting to be in South Africa to launch @FutureEcoAfrica, with an amazing team committed to African-led sustainability transformations. @GSI_Exeter is proud to be a partner with @WitsGCI, @OppGenRC and many other fabulous partners in research and action.

Delighted to be here representing @GSI_Exeter & @ExeterGeography for this wonderful workshop hosted by @OppGenRC & @WitsGCI

What a team 💪🏾🤩

Magical moments with our team at Telperion. Thanks to @OppGenRC for hosting us in this beautiful grassy ecosystem!

Excited to get out in the field and try out the protocol for extracting #eDNA from soil. Turns out the mixing stage is best shared, and even better as a dance off! Looking forward to the analysis with @NatureMetrics, to examine impacts of #ConservationFarming @GSI_Exeter #TIST
