As part of their Sustainability plan, Sarnia Hotels have introduced an option for staying guests to choose not to have their rooms serviced daily. The savings will be donated to Guernsey Trees for Life to assist with planting native trees and hedgerows! Now that's a Win Win!🌳πŸ₯°

Check out our new website at gtfl.earth - we think we've chosen a fab domain name in the form of "earth" since we believe the planting of trees will help contribute to humankind's adaptation to climate change on the only planet we have - the Earth! #tree #treeplant

Where is the outcry? We're heading toward losing our bees and butterflies yet little seems to be done at a government level to reduce and remove harmful chemicals. guernseypress.com/news/2021/…

Warn us when using pesticides or herbicides, say beekeepers

BEEKEEPERS are appealing to neighbours to give them a warning if they are planning to use herbicides or pesticides on their land.

Absolutely fantastic Gorse this year great for early pollinators! Remember mow lawns a little less frequently and please don't strim your bank's to within an inch of destruction give nature a chance.

This is happening all over St Peters at the moment surely it's time we worked with Farmers to find an alternative to the destruction of our Biodiversity. Supporting @pollinatorproj in their plea to use less chemicals.

Always disappointed when I see this in Guernsey. Should need Planing permission before installation and be refused!

Please don't replace turf with plastic grass. It: 🐝 Offers no food and shelter to wildlife 🌱 Has a high carbon footprint - while real grass captures carbon ⚠️ Wears out and ends up in landfill 🐬 Sheds microplastics which wash into rivers & the sea πŸ’¦ Worsens flooding

What a sad photo it speaks for itself, nothing else to say.

Andrea Dudley-Owen, President of the Committee for Education, Sport & Culture offers some reassurance and thanks to parents/teachers. Juggling life can be tricky (like when the VP for your Committee is calling!) but help is on the way πŸ’ͺ Further info coming soon #GuernseyTogether
