In 2023, Irish farms with sheep fell by 1,000. The industry is on its way out, and it can't happen fast enough for nature. Offering farmers the option of being paid to rewild their land is such an obvious next step now. Why on earth aren't we taking it? 🌎 www.agriland.ie/farming-news...

How a long-isolated tree reacts to the lifting of grazing pressure, shutting down the exposed branches that 'got away' (managed to grow above browsing height), and putting all energy into new growth closer to the roots. Nature is a never-ending source of fascination. 🌎

In over 15 years rewilding 30 acres, I've never once felt it was too much physically. But the moments I've been close to overwhelmed by the resulting magic and wonder have honestly been countless. Like finding the key to an enchanted dreamworld, but in real life. 🌏

The ever brilliant Simon Clark has put together a U.K. election special looking at what Labour, Conservatives, Lib Dems, Reform UK, and other major political parties say about climate policy. He provides a handy rating for each party and recommendations for which party to vote for.
