Did you know there is no dedicated team or person in Defra for grasslands, despite them covering 40% of England? 🤯 We're joining @plantlifeuk.bsky.social & partners in calling for the Gov to establish a Grassland Taskforce to unlock their value 🌱 Learn more: www.plantlife.org.uk/our-work/the...

Are book reviewers doing enough to challenge facts in non-fiction? Quibbling reviews can be annoying, but they are also important.
