Did you know London has over 371 hectares of green roofs, covering more space than Hyde Park? We have even found some tiny sweat bees on them more than 5 stories up! 🐝🌸 #GreenLondon #UrbanNature

One teaspoon of the neonicotinoids pesticide could kill 1.25 billion bees. And yet the Government could be about to let it back on English fields. Sign the petition: tell Ministers to keep this ban on bee-killing pesticides in place. 38d.gs/-ufv

Started the New Year with a visit to the V&A. Their exhibition on the Mughals is spectacular, with paintings often featuring beautiful depictions of animals. Here's one from the early 1600s. Zoom in and see how many bird species you can find! Vaibhav Kaul Robert Macfarlane

Please consider leaving dead plants in your garden over the winter rather than tidying them up. They will provide sheltered spots for hibernating insects 🐞 #gardening #nature

Garden with wildlife in mind 🦋🐝🪲🦔 The UK’s natural wildflower habitats have been depleted by a staggering 98%, by growing wildflowers in our gardens, window boxes or spaces, we can benefit wildlife and biodiversity.

Hedges were established for the (many!) benefits they bring to a farm But NOW we are looking at them through the lense of biodiversity recovery, carbon storage, pollution reduction etc These are public goods for which it's right for the public to financially contribute to

Britain’s road verges cover an area the size of Dorset. Managed well, these can become wildflower-rich corridors vital for wildlife. #roadvergecampaign
