@SheffCouncil why you spraying Sheffield streets with pesticides? Im HORRIFIED to see GLYPHOSATE sprayed on our streets by a Council worker. Cities across UK and Europe have banned it. It kills wildlife, is a health risk, cats and dogs can get very sick BAN IT NOW! @_OliviaBlake

Sometimes you just need to chill by the ocean. #OceanStateOfMind #mentalhealth #mindfulness #nature ,

Absolutely barbaric behaviour by some people in Faroe Islands last week where hundreds of dolphins and whales were butchered. Such appalling cruelty has no place in a civilised world. If you agree tweet at the Faroe Government @Tinganes demanding it stop! thecooldown.com/outdoors/dol…

All this on a #dontmow roadside verge, it's absolutely spectacular, & there are lots of Common spotted orchids about to flower in it too! #wildflowerhour

This is really stupid, and it’s not getting enough attention. The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean. And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them. Record-breaking temperatures. A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse. The response? Yank out the instruments and walk away. That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency. For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives. The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident. That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first. cnn.com/2026/06/03/climate/o…

Great to see so many flowering roadside verges on main roads like this near #Skibbereen in #Ireland and so many bees amongst flowers. We could learn from this in England and Wales where many verges are still getting the scalped treatment when in flower @DefraGovUK @Irishwildlife

Very excited to be attending #FairSeas Ocean Conference in #Cork, Ireland with impressive global speakers and Irish Government. Focus on how to achieve effective Marine Protected Areas. Speakers say we dont need more "paper protected areas" and enforcement is key. #WorldOceanDay

Totally Agree 👍 @gateshead - This guy drove past me spraying while I was walking my dog. STOP spraying herbicides & weed killers across our landscape. It’s killing plants, insects and I’m sure leeches into the soil. 🤬🤬

OMC stud!! Mighty Osupaat 🔥 #LoveLions 📸 ale.m.photography Instagram

Same here in Birmingham. Bloke in a mask on one of those. Last yr they did it on foot - I questioned the guy & he said it was safe brand - looked it up - glyphosate. Complained to council - no response. Fuming they just spray it around with no warning.

Hey @SheffCouncil what the hell are you doing? WITHOUT the permission of the people who live there too. This stuff CAUSES CANCER It is POISONOUS to WILDLIFE and DANGEROUS for people's PETS. SHAME ON YOU. Disgusting.

This isn’t just weed control. It’s the slow stripping out of insect life from the places we share. Public space should not be managed as if pollinators are expendable.

Spraying pesticides in public spaces has to STOP NOW! Its dangerous for wildlife, people and pets. Many European counties have banned this. Its a war on nature in our public places @DefraGovUK @SteveReedMP @pesticideaction @Greenpeace @ChesterfieldBC #bees #insects #savethebees

Disturbing news about sharks and other fish washed up on Welsh beaches. Most likely from discarded catches. Ocean life is treated with such little respect by some. Hundreds of dead sharks and fish wash up on two beaches in Wales | Wales | The Guardian share.google/R7395t7Mj75XDwD…

Disgusted by the footage on the BBC showing game keepers beating birds of prey to death. Such a shame the @MoorlandAssoc can't control the disgusting behaviour of some of its members. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjep…

River Wye granted rights in UK first that could help in fight against pollution 💚 The entire catchment of the River Wye has been formally recognised as a living ecosystem with intrinsic rights in a charter, a UK first that campaigners hope will help save the highly polluted river. The charter was celebrated at a community event at the Hay-on-Wye literary festival on Sunday. It includes the right to flow, to biodiversity, to be free from pollution, to be supported by a healthy catchment, to regenerate, and the right to be represented, described as a “significant step” towards protecting and restoring one of the UK’s most beloved rivers. Herefordshire and Powys county councils have already implemented the charter and it is expected to be adopted soon by Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire, covering the entirety of the Wye’s 130-mile course from its source in the Cambrian mountains in mid Wales to Chepstow and the Bristol Channel. Jackie Charlton, the county council’s cabinet member for a greener Powys, said: “The River Wye is central to our environment, communities and heritage. By adopting this charter, we are making a clear statement that the river’s health matters and must be protected. "This is about working together with partners and communities to restore the river and safeguard it for generations to come.” theguardian.com/environment/…

This poison ends up in our streams and brooks. A 190 day half life. Then folk wonder why Ranunculus and other macrophytes are disappearing. All for what exactly?
