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

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.

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. πŸ’šπŸΎ #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.πŸͺ mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/ma…

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/ckg6…

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

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

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

9 years ago at Orca Watch in Scotland, Marine Connection co-founder Liz Sandeman met a young boy called Finlay Pringle. Since that time, he has become a true marine conservationist and climate change activist. @MeganMcCubbin @FinlayPringle @SteveBackshall @ChrisGPackham
