'I want to erase my own footprint': The women looking after an island paradise bbc.in/3vRnAbr
Here’s how young women and girls in #Antigua are fighting back against #climatechange bbc.com/news/world-lat…
Here's how ardent environmentalists in the tiny Turks & Caicos Islands are fighting to save the world's third largest reef from the deadliest coral sickness the planet has ever seen. SCTLD is now present in 28 countries in the region. bbc.com/news/world-lat… #tci #sctld

"We don't play to entertain, but to inspire. We want to be known as a people who can do this. We never want a 'charity clap': we want a wow." bbc.com/news/world-lat… #abyso #antiguabarbuda #playtoinspire #kannehmasons
"I hope this is an inspiration to other countries that if little Antigua and Barbuda can do it, so can you." A pleasure to once again showcase the incredible work of our local environmentalists. bbc.com/news/world-lat… #30x30 #antiguaandbarbuda #redonda #eag #FFI
Unless Phillip Schofield’s ex-lover contradicts his version of events to @TheSun & BBC, then it’s time to stop this relentless persecution of a guy who’s lost everything and looks right on the edge to me. He doesn’t seem to have committed any crime, and he’s not a Govt minister.
#AmnestyInternational describes the conflict in #Cameroon as “one of the worst human rights situations we are covering in the African continent”. bbc.com/news/world-lat…
Fellow journos. I’m genuinely intrigued… if you’d been in #IsabelOakeshott’s position, would you have leaked the WhatsApp messages?
yes, please do enlighten me. email me at [email protected]

One minuscule creature, one humongous protection effort. Delighted to have the opportunity to shine a light on the incredible work taking place to protect the Union Island gecko which only exists in one tiny part of St Vincent and the Grenadines. #FFI #SVG

Coral reef: How divers are using antibiotics to save sick corals Part of Reginald's work is helping apply an antibiotic paste to sick corals, a method which has seen significant success in halting the spread. @gemmahandy bbc.co.uk/news/world-lat…
@IsabelOakeshott Do you have evidence that this man has actually made this money illegally or are you going to lose your mind over a guy having what appears to be about £900?
@IsabelOakeshott So far, a video that means nothing and what statisticians describe as a “survey of 1”. Let’s get empirical. What you got?
@OzKaterji The year 2000 though - he’s the same age as me so would have been about 15/16? If I had written anything at that age it would have been utter bollocks as well. Tempted to give him a pass on that one.
@OzKaterji Can I just shock you? A teenager once had bad, naive opinions on international affairs -- more on this as we get it.
@OwenJones84 Please do so. It’s unbelievable how people are easily throwing around words such as antisemitic, terrorist-supporter, etc. it’s a way to shut down criticism of Israel and a lot of money is being poured into this agenda. Legal measures maybe the only effective way to get relief
