@SavingHall @robintransition Testbed? Model? For sustainable society. Just words. 9 decades modelling unsustainable agriculture. Is @dartington organically farmed? Not much. Local community values could help it soar, but it doesn’t engage. Trust is lost. Sustainability? Let me know

#childlesscatladies JD Vance im so confused my cats died my wife is dying I’m a man we don’t have biological children. Im lost as to how I can possibly contribute to the world. Please send guidance!

#ChildlessCatLadies #childlesscatlady I’m an adoptive father and our cat just died so I am privileged to share lives with two wonderful grown up daughters, a wonderful wife, and sadly no cat. I guess this makes us a #catlessfamily. Hoping we can live up to JD Vance’s standards

What happens when a group of 7 to 13-year-olds head out into green spaces for some nature-based therapy? We evaluated the impact on their mental health during their sessions with amazing local initiative @ApricotCentre See what we found here: healthinnovationsouthwest.com/blog/2023/10/0…

Much enjoyed On your farm describing pioneering work of the Apricot Centre in Devon. Mark and Marina O'Connell are pioneers in regenerative agriculture, which they combine with wellbeing and agricultural training: makes a remarkable £16,000 per acre bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

@theRSAorg It is very sad times for Schumacher College one week away from welcoming in 3 cohorts of international students, all of who will have made significant arrangements and life plans to get here it sounds we understand they will be told the courses are on pause.

We are thrilled to announce that this year's Bicentenary Medal is awarded to Satish Kumar and Schumacher College for their outstanding contributions to ecological learning. 👏🎖️Learn about their inspirational regenerative ethos and practice. thersa.co/3qvWhR3

@Otto_English Great to see how well they responded to this guy.

Hilarious. GB News sends hapless Ben Leo to Greenpeace HQ to own the wokes and gives them some brilliant on air publicity by mistake

@Bill_Sutherland Well you are number 1 to me Bill

Amusing to be identified as the 590th best scientist globally by research.com but combined with astronomer Will J Sutherland! Pointed out the error last year but they just switched photo and address from me to Will!

⛓️ Over 39 arrested today for peacefully protesting against new fossil fuels. 🌡️ Over 40°C in Italy, France, Spain. 🔥 Over 24 million acres of forest burnt in Canada. 💀 Over 40 people drowned in South Korea floods. When do we say no? How many arrested protesters? How many heatwave deaths? Drownings? Forests burnt? Where is the line if not here and now? If we keep waiting for politicians to act, millions will die needlessly. They've failed us all. Take action: juststopoil.org
