BREAKING!

Our natural world is being threatened…again!
Buckle up for a thread taking you through
the catalogue of errors in @HS2ltd’s nature sums

wildlifetrusts.org/news/new-repor… 🧵 (1/5)
A huge number of our most precious habitats
have been undervalued or even ignored-
including trees, ponds and hedgerows; homes for
some of our most at-risk species. (2/5)
Mapping mistakes have led to entire habitats being excluded. This means more of our natural world that we won’t get back. (3/5)

❤️🙏🌍Today the RSPB stands in solidarity with @nationaltrust

They have been very clear about the #AttackOnNature, please read the excellent statement below.

But the UK Government is still not listening. So, what now? Read on … thread ...

We agree with @nationaltrust director-general Hilary McGrady when she says:

“We are facing one of the biggest threats to nature in my lifetime. It potentially means we will be turning some of our most precious green spaces grey.” 2/

In short, there is an #AttackOnNature and we are still not hearing the assurances that nature needs from the UK Government. 3/

So, many MPs and @DefraGovUK have been responding to the claims made about this #AttackOnNature that's been happening since last week.
Have you heard from your MP yet?

Here's what they've said to reassure people so far..
@Natures_Voice are "liars"

This is all simply "a communications issue"

Nature orgs have 'misunderstood' intentions, and haven't read the details properly

Established, respected green charities are 'making all this up' to create 'hysteria' to force an 'increase in membership' off people's fears

2/
Happily, I can rebut.

It is in no-one's interest to make this shit up. We ready have ENOUGH to do.
Calling the RSPB and other NGOs 'liars' is disgusting as well as a disgraceful reponse from an elected representative to his constituents

(you'll see a theme here)

Marked a month @CwallWildlife with a run through the woods to the beautiful, elemental north cliffs west of Portreath. Wild up there this morning #CornwallAONB

Don’t let anyone ever tell you nature isn’t good for you
