More than half of the total surface area of the UK's front gardens is hard surfacing but we can help green the grey 🌱🌳🍃🌿

Britain has lost endless miles of hedgerow over the past 50 years. Wildlife habitats destroyed, carbon dioxide-soaking plants gone, the countryside left bleaker and uglier. If you can plant even a small native hedge, please do. If you have one already, please look after it!

Greater investment in nature is needed to fight the #ClimateCrisis and reverse the loss of biodiversity. 🦋🐝🐞🐦🌳

#ClimateStrike in #Salisbury in full swing. By restoring & creating #magnificentmeadows & going #peatfree in horticulture we can take #climateaction plantlife.org.uk/uk/blog/what-i…

Dear councils, If left to grow - and cut annually like traditional hay meadows - 1000s of miles of #roadverges could be beautiful wildflower havens! You'll save taxpayers cash too 🐝 More at: bit.ly/2snePjw (Pictured is a verge in Dorset, courtesy of Plantlife)
