Ah, it’s begun. The people who for years denied reality and criticised scientists and activists, costing us vital decades, have begun to understand the anger they will soon face for putting us all in unimaginable danger.

Aren't elected representatives supposed to engage with their constituents, rather than insult and ridicule them?

The Trumpification of UK politics is bad news for all of us

Conservation actions - like setting aside space for nature - are hugely effective at conserving biodiversity

Without biodiversity we don't exist, so conservation action is cheap at any price

Yet global spending on protected areas is one third of what we spend on ice cream

The billionaire press cannot be relied upon to tell the truth about climate collapse or the people resisting a government acting like everything is fine.

Last week: Climate change to knock 19% off global GDP by 2050

Today: Nature destruction to potentially knock 12% off UK GDP by 2030
