Government defeated in High Court over climate plans bbc.in/4b2l4y9

We're calling on the next UK Government to recognise the value of the ocean for nature, climate, health and our economy. We've released an open letter urging them to prioritise the recovery of our seas during this year's election period

Sign our letter: mcsuk.org/what-you-can-d…

Please watch out for oiled birds or oil along Wicklow and Wexford coastline and report to the authorities stated in the thread:

Fascinating to hear more about the LIFE Raft Project at dinner with RSPB NI earlier this week.

Non-native ferrets and rats on Rathlin Island endanger seabird colonies and the efforts to remove them will enable species recovery.

Big oil spent decades sowing doubt about dangers of fossil fuels, experts say theguardian.com/us-news/2024/m…

Actually managed to SEE the Corncrake today! Spent a while listening and watching quietly from the road this afternoon, while he was repeatedly giving short bursts of his 'crrrrrrrk crrrrrrrk' song. Noticed a Rabbit getting startled by the sudden noise, and there he was 🤩

#NoMowMay officially begins! 🌼

Latest counts show our seabirds are declining rapidly. The ban on fishing for sandeel in UK waters is a lifeline to protect and recover these incredible birds 🌊🐧

The EU must now do the right thing and supports this decision.

Breaking news: A huge wave of support today shown by UK and EU NGOs for the recent sandeel closures asking Scot Gov Marine Defra UK to maintain a strong position in light of EU challenge RSPB News BirdLife Europe & Central Asia Blue Marine Foundation Marine Conservation Society Oceana UK Wildlife and Countryside Link

How cool is this - a Puffin's secret superpower! After finding a skull the other day, we suddenly remembered we have a special torch now and we can actually try the UV trick 🤓

The UK and Scottish governments have taken decisive action to save our seabirds by ending sandeel fishing in Scottish waters & the English North Sea.

We support this vital action and urge the EU to follow our lead, not block it. 🚨

Together, we can save our seabirds.

DAERA Minister Andrew Muir MLA recently visited RSPB NI Window on Wildlife Centre in BelfastHarbour seeing firsthand wildlife existing just yards from the bustle and industry of a major working port #seabirds #ornithology

Next week, #NoMowMay is back! 🌼

This spring, take action for nature by... doing nothing.

Sit back, let the grass grow tall, the wildflowers bloom, and watch nature move in.

Will you be taking part this May?
