High integrity is vital for confidence in nature-based solutions & investment. The overarching principles standard from BSI has just been updated. It's there to offer clarity & consistency & is now ready for everyone involved in UK nature markets to adopt.gov.uk/government/news/new-w…
Fantastic to celebrate and be part of this partnership with @NaturalEngland and @DorsetWildlife with @BrianBleese @TonyJuniper@MarianSpain@RobFarrington and a fantastic group of people. Solution in action to recover nature at scale, mitigate nutrients and unlock needed housing.
Not sure how the mainstream press are missing this, can’t find a single report over past month (except Le Monde), as we have hottest global sea surface temperatures EVER recorded. #ClimateCrisis
Striking rainfall run-off comparisons @Broughton_Hall pre- (Jan 21) and post- (Jan 24) large-scale tree planting in former intensive sheep grazed pastures. Virtually identical rainfall in previous 4 weeks (131 mm v 133 mm). Big increase in infiltration and above-ground storage.
Have you watched Charles III: The Coronation Year? 👑
Lincolnshire Coronation Coast #NationalNatureReserve has a vital role in England’s #NatureRecovery.
We were thrilled to share our love for this remarkable location with King Charles III @RoyalFamily. Catch up @BBCiPlayer.
ALT King Charles III and Tony Juniper walk along a path inside the Lincolnshire Coronation Coast National Nature Reserve. It is a summer day and there is long green grass on either side of the path. Tony Juniper is holding binoculars. The King is wearing a light coloured suit and sunglasses.
So delighted and thrilled by this recognition of the amazing work in transfoming conservation practice done by the Cambridge team and by the over 1015 global collaborators listed here: conservationevidenceblog.wor….
Good news. DEFRA agreed to strengthen legal links between Local Nature Recovery Strategies & local plans.
The change is in response to @kateparminter's proposals, supported by Kathy Willis & @WhitchurchGirl. Thanks to @RichardHRBenyon for listening.
Now to get the LNRSs flying!
The Northumberland stretch of the King Charles III #EnglandCoastPath is now complete! 🌊

We urgently need your support. A massive wildfire has ripped through RSPB Corrimony in Scotland, destroying around half of the nature reserve and devastating rare wildlife at a key time of year. rspb.org.uk/join-and-donate/…
Looking forward to going on @BBCr4today at about 8.30 to discuss @thetimes splash today saying that @NaturalEngland is blocking house building. We’re not, we are highlighting laws to protect internationally important wetlands from sewage (Times running a major campaign on that!).
A ‘King’s Series’ of 25 new & expanded National Nature Reserves will be declared during the coming 5 years by @NaturalEngland to mark His Majesty’s Coronation. The first one is announced today, the Lincolnshire Coronation Coast NNR. At 55KM2, it’s big gov.uk/government/news/kings…
The formation of the Labour Climate and Environment Forum is hugely exciting news. Labour is strong on climate but (let’s be honest) not great on nature, yet. Time to get Labour MPs out into nature! theguardian.com/environment/…
