Regarding leaving X, I don’t think many *ordinary* people would say it is relevant anymore. For sure, if you’re a big cheese your tweets will gain traction, but isn’t it mostly bots and Elon Musk encouraging idiocy?

The government will never solve the housing crisis by blaming bats and newts. Until they address the systemic issues that financialize housing nothing will change. We can’t sacrifice our protected species and habitats to a doomed experiment

Here is a closer look at the record low #Arctic sea ice around Svalbard currently. This coincides with the record warmth as well (check out my earlier post). Earlier last week temperatures in parts of Svalbard were more similar to July than October.

To be nonVegan in 2025 is to support a multitude of injustices. Injustices that affect animals, both domestic & wild. Injustices that affect other human beings. Injustices that affect the viability of the planet we all depend on.

Hedgehog highways could become requirement for new buildings Lords amend planning bill to include protections for wild animals, including bird-safe glass and swift bricks Hedgehog highways and bird-safe glass could become requirements for all new buildings as members of the House of Lords push through amendments to the government’s planning bill. This may cause a headache for ministers, who have tried to avoid burdening developers with laws on nature measures such as β€œswift bricks”. The new Lords amendments include mandated provision for these nesting boxes, which campaigners say are crucial for the survival of the threatened species. Continue reading...

The #kakapo population has dropped to 238. Adult female Lisa was found dead on Anchor Island recently, and two of the 2019 cohort, TΕ«manako and Whakakini, have not been since since then and so have been removed from the official count. #conservation #parrots #birds

The Persuasive Bite of the Tick that turns Carnivores into Vegans Paul Watson explores how the Lone Star Tick is turning meat lovers into reluctant vegans, fueling health scares and conspiracy theories across the U.S.

β€œPerhaps mother nature has found a solution to the excessive consumption of animal flesh by an excessive number of human beings.”
-Captain Paul Watson

Another excellent piece by Watson with facts, satire and bite!

This injured terrier was used for a hunt in Northern Ireland. The dog became injured as a result and was left abandoned in a badger sett, where it was rescued by the @uspca.bsky.social‬

How can an industry that kills birds for their so-called β€˜sport’ still be allowed to trap and kill other animals too?

Snares are still legal in England. Used by the shooting industry to protect game birds destined to be shot.
