Small water bodies - ponds, ditches, small fens, headwater streams, flushes - the delicate capillaries that make up 80% of water bodies, home to some of our rarest creatures - ensuring their health has an outsize benefit for wildlife

Ich brauche keine fünfzigste Reportage, die versucht, AfD-WÀhler zu verstehen, ich hÀtte gerne mehr Berichte über eine Mehrheit der Deutschen, die enttÀuscht vom Rechtsruck der Politik ist. Die Mehrheit, die 2024 & 2025 zu den grâßten Demos unserer Geschichte auf die Straßen ging & ungehârt bleibt.
