Time to get serious at #COP27. Saudi Arabia's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs says tackling climate change is "not about fossil fuels" is like saying the Economy is not about Money. Only path to a manageable future for humanity is to start phasing out fossil fuels. Now.

Two bits of the same hedge - one side left uncut for a year and now full of blue tits enjoying the catkins, the other side cut. Really good to leave some hedges uncut for a year or more and to rotate it around. #hedgerows #farming #naturefriendly
