We could see almost a quarter of Gaza’s population - close to half- a million human beings - dying within a year. Largely deaths from preventable health causes & collapse of the medical system. It’s a crude estimate, but one that is data-driven… theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Every time I turn on @RTERadio1, I hear ads encouraging farmers to plant more trees for cash, or Coillte telling us they're planting more sitka 'for nature, the climate, and people'. Meanwhile, our last REAL forest ecosystems are just allowed to die off as if they were nothing.

This is remarkable: 170 Dutch academics put together a 5-point manifesto for economic change after the C19 crisis, building on #degrowth principles. It has gone viral in Dutch media. In this thread I'll summarize the points in English. trouw.nl/duurzaamheid-n…

Out of 240 nations on Earth, Ireland ranks a catastrophic 13th from the bottom in how nature is doing. My piece in today's @IrishTimes on why our need for the Nature Restoration Law could not be greater, and any MEPs who vote it down will be betraying us all, including farmers.

Contrast what most of Ireland was once like to how it is now. Out of 240 countries in the world, we're *13th from the bottom* in biodiversity intactness, and these two images go a long way to explaining why. Radical land use change could NOT be more badly + urgently needed.

Why are we losing so many of our ground nesting birds? These are the scenes currently all over #Derbyshire & many counties - beautiful #wildflowermeadows mown down for silage (cattle feed). Curlew, Skylark, Meadow Pipit, Oystercatcher & Lapwing are ground nesting birds. Right…

If this happens, it'll be a MASSIVE win-win for nature, for farmers, for the climate, for rural communities, for all of us.

Let's get something straight about the Nature Restoration Law. First, it's exactly what it says it is - it's not a Peat Rewetting Law (let me cone to that later). We need a new law because *biodiversity is collapsing*; the EU has concluded that existing laws are not enough...
