The BBC claimed "The research comes as many international albatross populations are in trouble."
"Some data from 2017 suggests the number of breeding pairs of the species are a little more than half of what they were in the 1980s."

@BBC@ISDglobal@cabinetofficeuk@spikedonline Here's the ISD's "analysis", which claims that "climate lockdown" was nothing more than an "innocuous phrase", which has been twisted beyond recognition, by "far right" anti-vax conspiracy theorists who are "pivoting" from covid denial to climate denial. isdglobal.org/isd-publicatio…
