This struck a cord #Covid19UK #coronavirus “there is light at the end of the tunnel, it’s just a pretty miserable tunnel to be in”

This image sums up how far we've come with our "stewardship" of the planet. And how far we have to go to put things right. Just heartbreaking.

Our amazing volunteers have been out on the canal in #Walsall at Bulls Lane Access point. In 4 hours the team of 5 with CRT_Gemmah collected litter and fly tipped rubbish and gave the area good tidy up and clean 😃

Work is underway in #Worcester to create a fish viewing gallery. It's being constructed at Diglis Weir on the Severn so people can see the salmon migrating. It's part of a £20m improvement scheme for the river which was announced two years ago. ➡️bbc.in/35ctTou

Many congratulations

Best not get into the politics but the fact the US is now almost certain to rejoin the Paris agreement is very good news.

Never mind a temperature rise caused by Covid 19 - it’s this we need really need to be concerned about. There’s no magic vaccine going to sort this one out....

Helping to keep our canals litter and plastic free is just one of the ways our #volunteers help care for our canals. This group in #Walsall explains why its more important than ever to join the fight against plastic. WASUP #PlasticsChallenge Express & Star CRT_Gemmah
